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.

Product is awesome!

This worked so much better than I was expecting, I caught a heap of cane toad tadpoles with no non-cane toad casualties. It even kept on capturing the tadpoles through the winter when it was supposed to be less effective.

CANE TOAD TRAP REVIEW

Thank you so much for the prompt delivery of the traps, which I purchased from you. I am in the process of reestablishing native vegetation along the banks of Sandy Creek which borders our property . As this area is the commencement of the creek and of great environmental significance, I have been well supported by both Scenic Rim Regional Council ( supplied 350 plants) and Tamborine Mountain Landcare ( conducted weed eradication). I am keen to encourage and protect our local wildlife and so I purchased your traps, hoping to eradicate the cane toad population in this area. Over the last few years of observing and catching only a few this season, I do believe that luckily we do not have that many. As it is so late in the season and becoming colder, I have not had the opportunity to use the traps and after closer inspection, the Tadpoles ( which I caught and feared were toads) were the Great Barred Frog of which we have thousands.
The Traps are of sturdy construction. The information pamphlet is easy to follow and I'm looking forward to using them next season. Thank you for giving us greater opportunities to help our beautiful environment in which we are privileged to live.

Easy and Effective

A necessary requirement for our new ponds that were filled with Toad tadpoles overnight, very effective solution.

Works Well

We live in Ashby 2463 and have a pond that is about 30 square meter and was infested with cane toad tadpoles. We set one trap for about six hours on four consecutive days. The amount caught was less each day and in total we caught about five to six cups full of tadpoles.
The trap is quite easy to use and the service at Watergum Community was realy good.
I have no hesitation in recommending these traps

Eliminating cane toads before they grow up

I bought the cane toad tadpole trap for my family at Eltham, Northern NSW. They have this lovely pond in the front of their house that so many different birds visit to drink, cool off or bathe. My son often catches 15-20 mature cane toads a night. The first time he used the trap, he estimates there would have been 300 tadpoles in the trap. He was so impressed.
I thought the video was fantastic and the information on how to tell a frog from a cane toad was excellent.
