Can I record ad-hoc kills on Trap.NZ?

In the event that a pest is killed by something other than a trap (e.g. roadkill, killed by cat/dog/firearm etc.), it can be useful to record this data as part of your project.

Currently,For there's no direct way of recording these in Trap.NZ, but clever folks have found a way around it.

To record ad-hoc killsinstructions on Trap.NZ

  1. Create a trap in your project (anywhere in your project is fine)
  2. Call it something like "cat" or "dog" or "firearm" or "ad-hoc" etc.
  3. Give it trap type "Unspecified"
  4. Record "catches" on that trap
