Ban glue traps
The Issue
Evidence shows Glue traps are inhumane, barbaric, a form of animal cruelty and against animal rights.
Not only do they harm mice and rats but also birds which statistics show are already rapidly declining by the year.
We have so many safer alternatives of traps to use that are safe and do not harm other wildlife and are so widely on the market and very easily obtainable.
It has been known for animals to chew through their own limbs to try and get off these traps and they die a slow and painful death. It's disgusting and they should not be legal to sell or purchase in the uk.
The UK are meant to be the world leaders of animal welfare yet these are still in every pet store, pound shop and pest control business available to the general public with very little knowledge of what actually happens to the animal when caught.
