How the Protecta EVO Tunnel Works
The EVO Tunnel creates a protected passageway that takes advantage of the natural tendency of rats and mice to travel along walls, edges, and protected pathways.
Rodent traps are positioned inside the tunnel so rats or mice encounter the traps as they travel through it. The locking cover helps prevent easy access to the traps by non-targets while still allowing rodents to enter from either end.
Important: The Protecta EVO Tunnel is a trap containment device—it does not kill rodents by itself. A compatible trap or monitoring device must be installed inside.
Compatible Rodent Control Devices
Depending on the control program, the Protecta EVO Tunnel can be used with:
- TRAPPER T-Rex Rat Traps
- TRAPPER T-Rex iQ Rat Traps
- TRAPPER Mini-Rex Mouse Traps
- TRAPPER MAX Glue Boards
- Compatible TRAPPER mouse glue trays
Bell specifically notes that the tunnel securely holds two T-Rex or T-Rex iQ rat traps.
How to Use the Protecta EVO Tunnel
1. Find rodent travel routes. Look for droppings, rub marks, gnawing, tracks, or other signs of rat and mouse activity.
2. Install the traps. Open the tunnel with the EVO key and secure the appropriate traps inside.
3. Position the tunnel. Place it along walls, foundations, fences, equipment, or other established rodent travel routes. Positioning the entrances along the rodent’s normal path can improve interaction with the tunnel.
4. Secure when necessary. The tunnel can be secured to fences or pipes with cable ties and may be positioned horizontally or vertically where appropriate.
5. Inspect regularly. Unlock the tunnel, inspect the traps, remove captured rodents, reset traps, and return the station to its original position.

The tunnel is designed for both indoor and outdoor rodent control applications.
Why Pest Control Professionals Use the Protecta EVO Tunnel
The EVO Tunnel provides an economical way to add tamper-resistant protection to a trapping program without purchasing a conventional bait station solely to cover traps. Its long, narrow profile is especially useful for placing traps along established rodent runways while keeping the installation discreet.
For homeowners, it provides a more professional way to deploy rat and mouse traps while helping limit direct access to the trapping mechanism.
