[@davidhandyman7571]

The man does think! Top job on the invention and engineering. Good old Aussie know-how.

[@intothenight1993]

Haha thanks David. 👍

[@darylstorer3369]

Thanks for that Josh. I'ts not all laying traps but looking after them as well.🤠

[@TheEnufzed]

Great typical thinking and rural application. Well done Josh

[@intothenight1993]

Thanks mate.

[@MarkJLarsonOutdoors]

Thanks for sharing my friend! I hope it works well for you!!

[@intothenight1993]

Thanks. I’m sure it will🤞

[@WalkaboutMick67]

I am looking forward to your trapping video's Josh 🙂

[@intothenight1993]

I probably won’t be doing much trapping for a while. The dogs have gone a bit quiet but they should ramp up again in the next few months as the pups get a bit bigger and more independent. Only seen the odd track around lately.

Absolutely beautiful sharing and a very interesting video to watch, keep it up Sir .. Merci beaucoup Monsieur

[@intothenight1993]

Thanks

[@ianmckinnon8461]

gday Josh, we used kurrajong tree boil .. Or leaves high in tannin..Though you were going to throw some yabbies or marron in at the start ..lol jk

[@intothenight1993]

Yeah I have used brigalow leaves before as they are very high in tannin. Haha I would have loved to throw. Few yabbies in but it would be a wast as I’m allergic to them now. 😞

[@brettstewart8765]

Traps look good, that stuff might be the goods definitely not as messy as the wax, take care and stay safe mate cheers Yogi 👍

[@intothenight1993]

Thanks Brett👍

[@kenpickett9317]

Wax on wax off.

[@AlbertLorincz]

I’m curious: What is the wax from? Thanks.

[@intothenight1993]

Because previously I used to dye my traps then coat them in wax to protect and lubricate them

[@robsin2810]

Time will tell, my friend. Love your vids. Keeps an old my entertained 👏🇦🇺👍

[@barnyard-jl5hm]

What do u do with it full metal jacket after u dip ur traps ? Do u reuse it and put it back in bottle or wash it away?

[@intothenight1993]

Put it back in the bottle and reuse it next time. 👌

[@christianmclean3331]

Brand new Sub . Loved the video Thanks.

[@intothenight1993]

Thanks for the support mate. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@CamBill_ROBLOX]

Different stuff, I only ever boiled my traps about once a year (unless I caught a fox or cat or touched them without gloves)with water and wattle leaves and branches. Never used anything else other than water to wash if springs were getting slow.

[@intothenight1993]

That’s what I’ve always done too but every time you hear the springs up they will lose a bit of their tension. So I thought I’d give this stuff a try. It’s much easier and quicker than having to boil and wax them.

[@TheEnufzed]

Well done Josh a lot better than having to buy new traps and hope you trap plenty more dogs and maybe you could buy feral cat traps instead having extra costs for ammo .

[@intothenight1993]

I think I have diminished the supply of feral cats around here. I haven’t seen one for at least a month.

[@janinemills5738]

If you let the water cool naturally, would the wax set at the top to allow scraping off later?

[@intothenight1993]

Yes that would work.

[@chrislewis7402]

There site is a nightmare to navigate. Been trying to order light but no go.

[@intothenight1993]

What are you having trouble with? It works for me🤔

[@keithwright1160]

When I was 2 or 3 I got my hand caught in a dingo trap I can tell you I yelped until my dad freed me and I have never touched another trap

[@intothenight1993]

Ouch! They certainly do hurt when you catch yourself on the fingers.

[@justme4172]

How long does Full Metal Jacket last???

[@intothenight1993]

I’m not sure as this is the first time I’ve used it but it is supposed to last well and be very hard wearing. So time will tell and next time I do some trapping I’ll do some updates. 👍

[@justme4172]

Thank you for your response!

[@intothenight1993]

No worries mate.

[@brettellis1837]

Never used wax only INOX WASH IN WARM WATER RE COAT AIR 24 HRS STICK IN GROUND SO DO ONE LEAVE IT IN GROUND FOR 12 MONTH'S I BET YA STILL CATCH DOGS.

[@intothenight1993]

I wouldn’t use inox or WD40 or anything like that as they do have a smell and it will only encourage dogs to scratch traps to see what the smell is.
