  • Spring traps are widely used for killing small mammals in the UK. By UK law, most spring traps are required to meet welfare approval standards, but break-back traps for rats (Rattus norvegicus) and mice (Mus musculus), and all mole (Talpa europaea) traps, are exempt. I argue that these exemptions are unjustified and should be repealed. Given that this is unlikely to happen soon, I propose an alternative approach — a ‘Voluntary Trap Approval (VTA)’ scheme, which could drive the necessary change via ‘carrot’ rather than ‘stick’. Such a scheme might benefit the welfare of many thousands of animals each year.
