Organizing a vole hunting competition to protect crops requires full consideration of the effectiveness of the hunting and the safety of the contestants. Here are some suggestions to help you catch the most voles in a short period of time: ### 1. Preparation before the competition - **Selecting the time and place**: Choose a time when vole activities are frequent, such as dusk or night, and determine the location for hunting, such as farmland, rice fields, etc. - **Publicity and mobilization**: Widely publicize through village committees, WeChat groups, bulletin boards, etc., encourage villagers to actively participate and explain the importance of hunting. ### 2. Organization of participants - **Grouping and registration**: According to the situation of the villagers, divide the participants into several groups for easy management and competition. Each group determines the hunting area according to the order of registration. - **Provide training**: Provide basic hunting skills training for contestants, such as how to choose appropriate hunting tools (such as mousetraps, nets, baits, etc.). ### 3. Hunting tools - **Choose appropriate hunting tools**: Provide effective hunting tools, such as mousetraps, clamps and nets. Contestants can also prepare their own tools. - **Use bait**: Use bait suitable for attracting voles, such as peanuts, corn, etc., and place it near the mousetrap. ### 4. Competition rules - **Timing and counting**: Set the competition time (such as two hours), and count the number of voles caught by each group after the competition. - **Safety precautions**: Make sure that participants wear gloves and masks to protect themselves from possible infection. - **Protect the ecology**: During the process of catching mice, the principle of not destroying the ecological environment should be followed to avoid harming other animals. ### 5. Reward mechanism - **Set rewards**: Give appropriate bonuses or prizes to the group that catches the most voles to motivate the participants. - **Award ceremony**: After the competition, hold a simple award ceremony to enhance the villagers' sense of participation and honor. ### 6. Post-match summary - **Feedback and summary**: After the competition, collect feedback from participants, summarize experience, and accumulate experience for similar activities in the future. - **Continuous monitoring**: After the competition, continue to pay attention to the activities of voles and carry out mouse catching activities regularly when necessary.
