I put a floating turtle trap in one of my ponds several months ago...the type that floats with two rubber bumpers. Caught and relocated over 30 yellow sliders
. Then recently, the trap was caddywhompus, half submerged...something had eaten small holes, 1/8" in one of the bumpers
. I filled the holes with caulk, let it harden, and put it back out....now BOTH bumpers have been chewed on....trap was on the bottom. The caulk didn't hold up either....what to use? Don't know which critter is chewing....I also have muskrats, and big azz snapper turtles in the pond...both are suspect....suggestions and ideas please
Nope...I will NOT eliminate the chewers...."live and let live"...within reason....
edited...I went online to the trap's site (Pond King), thinking I might call them....the bumpers are soft vinyl, not rubber if that makes a difference....
