gulvlag

Gulvlag, also known as a floor pit or floor hole, is a type of pit trap used for hunting small mammals, particularly rodents. It consists of a small hole or depression in the ground, typically covered with a lid or a piece of wood, which is placed over the hole. When a small mammal, such as a mouse or rat, enters the hole, it is unable to escape and is trapped. Gulvlags are often used in agricultural settings to control rodent populations, as they are relatively inexpensive and easy to set up. However, their use has been criticized for being inhumane, as the trapped animals may suffer and die from starvation, dehydration, or other causes. As a result, many countries have implemented regulations or bans on the use of gulvlags, and alternative methods of rodent control are often recommended.
