I have a bird stuck on a glue trap!
ANY ANIMAL STUCK ON A STICKY TRAP IS AN EMERGENCY.
Preparation for transfer:
1) Do NOT try to remove the animal.
2) DO minimize further injury by “disabling” the rest of the trap. Use paper towel or similar to cover the remaining exposed sticky parts.
Do NOT use oil on the animal or trap. It can destroy feathers or fur rendering the animal hypothermic.
3) DO put the animal and trap into a cardboard box and close the lid.
4) Bring the bird ASAP.
If it is a bat, use leather gloves.
