Lowering the Leaf Litter Trap into the Well. The image shows the trap being lowered into the well using the lanyard. The leaf litter bag, contained within the pool net, is carefully guided down to the bottom of the well, positioning it to lay flat and become accessible to salamanders. This setup ensures a smooth descent and accurate placement of the trap in the well.
