Examined mole trap I had set on May 18, and it was unspung. Reset it in a a different burrow system. Examined the two rat traps I set May 18 in what I supposed were Aplodontia burrows. One of the traps was sprung, pulled out of the hole, and lying 2 feet from the entrance to the burrow. Reset these traps. It was cold during the night, but was warm and sunny all day.
