Humane, effective Cane Toad control is here!
Break the breeding cycle of Cane Toads (Rhinella marina) by trapping hundreds of tadpoles at a time. Our world first technology targets Cane Toads in their vulnerable tadpole phase, before they grow up to cause damage.
Use in toad breeding waterways - perfect for dams, streams and ponds.
How does it work?
Cane Toad tadpoles in Australia have evolved to cannibalise other Cane Toad eggs. The active ingredient in the lure is the same pheromone that attracts the tadpoles to the eggs! When placed in the trap, the lure creates a 'scent plume' through the water that Cane Toad tadpoles will follow into the trap, making them easy to remove and euthanise.
The lure is an environmentally friendly, humane solution. The lure is only attractive to cane toad tadpoles and has no impact on waterway health or native frog species.
Customer Reviews
I used to make my own, but these are so convenient. I get two uses out of one (dry & go again). I got the trap too, it needs a better lid - I now hold it on with plastic bolts/wingnuts with a plastic chain (cattle won't chew). Best away from dense vegetation, in open water.
I have used similar products before, these certainly do attrct the toad tadpoles, I have humanely exterminated hundreds . An excellent idea and they are reasonably priced. Can definitely recommend, your environment will thank you.
The tadpole lure & trap are brilliant. Thank you. But there were lessons I experienced. When the tadpoles are first seen, put a trap in immediately. The earlier after they hatch the better. It seemed to me that once they had found other food sources the ability of the trap to attract them decreased.
I purchased this trap and lure combo after I found seemingly thousands of tadpole in my fish pond. I used the trap for a day and emptied it 3 times and it got rid of nearly all of the tadpoles. I am letting the lure to dry for a bit before putting it back in but highly recommend this trap! It’s amazing!
We purchased this trap & lures as pond was full of cane toad tadpoles. I've emptied the trap for 5 consecutive days slowly ridding the pond of these tadpoles.
