Traps (6)
I believe the answer is:
snares
'traps' is the definition.
('snare' can be a synonym of 'trap')
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for snares that I've seen before include "Traps set by Nasser" , "hidden dangers" , "Lures or entanglements" , "Traps for catching birds or animals" , "Animal traps" .)
