The Lure Basket Vs the Automatic Paste Pump

Since the lure basket and Automatic Paste Pump can't be used at the same time, it can be difficult to know which is the right option. Especially if you purchased a Smart Trap Kit which contains both! This article (and the video above) should help to explain the differences between the lure basket and APP, helping you to decide which is the right fit for you!

The APP is the easier of the two options, it comes in three flavours (chocolate, nut butter and meat lovers) and once installed you don't need to do anything to it for six months. The lure inside is a formula that Goodnature has developed and tested over years so we know that they work and pests find them delicious! It is also designed to be long life, attractive for the whole six months. The prefeed pouches will help

However, perhaps you have a lure that you know already works well for you and would prefer to use that then the lure basket might be the one for you! The lure basket allows you to put whatever you want into it, unlike the APP where you only have three options. We usually recommend using lure that the rats are already eating, if possible, such as pet food, vege from the garden, fruit from trees or even just lure that you know is tried and true, like peanut butter. Since these lures aren't designed to last a long time you will need to check your trap regularly and change the lure more often to keep everything attractive.

Overall it's all about giving you choice! If you are less confident with trapping the APP will be better for you, if you are more confident and already have a lure that you like, the lure basket may be the option you want!
