One thing I would mention is that I know your nemisis animal is the weasel. You almost have to check your weasel traps daily or the mice will eat the pelt off of any weasels you catch within a day or 2.

Weather can play a factor in checking traps too. Too warm and you might have green skinned catches if left too long. Heavy snowfall and you will need to reset many traps or snares.

Traps that are not killing devices must be checked at least
once every 48 hours if set under the authority of a Registered
Fur Management Licence.
