A rodent trap 100 is provided for catching, killing and storing a plurality of rodents. The trap has a plurality of chambers 108 for receiving a rodent therein and access means to enable access for a rodent to one of said chambers. A liquid reservoir 102 is provided, as is a trigger 118 which, in use, is activated by a rodent in one of the chambers 108a. Activation of the trigger indexes the plurality of chambers such that the chamber containing the rodent is moved from a first position in which the chamber is accessible by the rodent to a second position in which the rodent is contained within said chamber beneath the liquid in the reservoir. Once the rodent has drowned the chambers can be further indexed resulting in the dead rodent falling into the reservoir. The chambers can form part of a rotating drum or can be formed on a conveyor belt (fig 4). Access to the trap is provided in one direction only. |
