  • Glynn Evans of BASC explains how to go about setting a fox snare. A well set snare is an efficient and humane way to catch a fox, especially when other methods of fox control are impractical or simply won't work. Choosing and preparing the right location for the snare is the key to success.
    Contrary to popular belief, a fox snare is not designed to kill - it is for catching and restraining a fox.

    The problem with cable snares is they're 1 and done for active animals. A fox will twist, turn, and jump trying to get lose. That cable will be all jacked up, irreparable. There are better methods and materials. Of course my intent is to kill. I see no point in catch and releasing foxes. It's not good to relocate them and if you can't relocate them, what's the point in trapping them other than to kill?

      dunno where u are at or what types of fox you are catching but I would think the foxes are city foxes released into the country because here in the north east england foxes (country foxes) would NOT go near a snare with human scent on it

    The Red Fox can smell metal it'll take all year to snare it with that. Plus its not a crocodile snare so without a trigger you need the fox to be clumsy. Your viewers would be better off with old Bertie and night vision. Also nothing gets the fox running into a snare like the smell of roast chicken. Perhaps you should retire for Sunday lunch or move in with Mr Fox. Gnangngangannnanan.

      That is why you boil it and then soak it baking soda water and place it with gloves. you melt all factory oils of and get rid of the scent and th baking soda gives is a rustic look so it doesnt glare in sunlight. he wouldn't be making the video if he hasnt caught a fox or two before.
