1978
4 traps set along trail of the wood pile. Other
traps just a few feet away in the work area were
untouched. Left on all * traps except these 4.
Then we went down the valley to Brosio: 1 Mars
(WZL #3602)
f - snap trap; at 10 traps picked up. Zelande:
1 Abdomens, f - snap trap = treatment (WZL 3603)
+ 1 M.sp. = live trap = kitchen. Picked up Mrs. Sp.
Leaving only 4 Sk. remaining = kitchen. At Campocologno:
catch nothing. Reset traps all following - 5 sk + barn
3 live traps under some fields of black plastic sheets (some
across road)
barns seen), + 5 live traps = Cantina of the house.
The 5 traps left at Angelici Costantini produced nothing;
they were retrieved. Then we returned to hotel where
we caught our 2nd live Mars & discarded the others.
2 Sk, and the Mars & the Abdomens from Zelande.
Tissues, skulls + skeletons were saved from all 5.
About 1515 started out again. I from very close
to barn in Zelande where we truffled (belonging to Sr.
Ferrari) we set traps at ~1600: after they left -
3 sks; empty skulls later - 3 live traps; manure pile
untouched - 2 live + 1 snap. We asked at a few more homes,
but couldn't find any additional places to trap in Zelande.
To went on to Campocologno. Then we set at 2
additional live traps near the plastic sheets set earlier this
AM. Also submitted other 3 traps with fancy bait (cats
+ a chocolate flavored spread = Nutella). Set 10
Mrs. Sp around + near the garden at this same site.
