Are Spring Loaded Mouse & Rat Traps Available In Thailand?

Hi,

Are spring loaded mouse & rat traps available in Thailand? Never saw one yet. I have used them when the need arose all my life. I have tried other methods too, but found the glue traps far from humane, and the live traps are just a "death row" for the rodents until they're drown. Unless you 'catch and release' - making the someone else's problem. The poisons lead to a long period where the vermin dry-up - or thirst to death - hardly seems pleasant.

I think in all of the years of using the spring-loaded traps, they kill so quickly the mouse sometimes doesn't get to make even a sound. In all my time using these, in Hawaii and Florida, I had only one that was merely injured, but I knew it immediately, so he didn't suffer much. The glue and poisons are real nightmares though - IMHO, really cruel!

Anyhow the main question is where, if possible to I get these. I live on Samui, but get to Bkk on occasion, Also, are there any restrictions against importing them?

Thanks,

all possible techniques should be used against the vermin - after some time of use they will get smart and avoid being killed. Still, the best protection for the house is a cat - it not only catches the vermin, but even the smell of cat's urine and feces will deter
