Andrew McDonald was originally a Gamekeeper but now runs a company performing Pest Control and Deer Management in the Highlands of Scotland. He has a keen interest in country pursuits, is a fond lover of a spot of shooting and fishing, and has a passion for all aspects of the countryside.

​

In 2017 Paul Stanford set up UK Putange Supplies and began importing and distributing quality Putange traps to fellow mole catchers. As the appeal grew for the French Putange trap, Paul was constantly asked if he could source other humane and affordable traps, which set him on the path to where we are today being the best place to get quality traps and accessories at the best prices possible. I was very fortunate to be able to take over UK Putange Supplies from Paul at the start of 2022.

​

All the traps we sell are sourced with these important factors in mind - Clean and Humane dispatch & Affordability.

​

UK Putange Supplies is dedicated to bringing you a range of great quality products at the best prices possible and we look to always try and keep a great stock of items and introduce new products along the way.

​

What sets us apart from many other distributors of mole traps in the UK is that we are mole catchers first! This means we can and we will provide guidance and advice on any of the traps we sell and use on a daily basis in the field.
