Safety First

WARNING: Keep hands clear of the impact area at all times. Keep the unit away from pets and children. Always power off the unit before handling, servicing or transporting it.

Nabber is safer than a snap trap, a glue trap, or poison, but it is a working mechanical device and it isn't perfectly shielded. It shouldn't be placed around children. If small fingers go inside, they'll get a whack they won't forget.

  • Keep Nabber out of reach of children and place it where pets can't tamper with it.
  • Switch the unit off before you open it, move it or empty it.
  • A protective cage that rodents can get through but kids and pets can't is planned as an accessory.
