Be warned that while smouldering lavender is equipped, the nearby wimpy birds will become aggressive and deal 60 life points of damage per hit. If smouldering fever grass is used instead of lavender, the platypodes will become aggressive and poison players. Once caught, players may loot the trap to receive a baby platypus pet. If a player already has a platypus, the trap will always fail to work, unless the platypus is in the menagerie.
