How do you detect if there is no bird snare placed yet?

[B1llymayz 0]

I have been trying many things but this is issue has seemed to stump me. I am trying to create a hunter bot. I cannot seem to figure out how code this because I am unsure of what makes an object null in Runescape. I would like to do something like 

 

if(bird snare has not been placed) {

then lay the bird snare on the ground

}

 

I know how to do the bird snare actions and all that but I do not know how to tell if it has not been placed

GameObjects gm = getGameObjects().closest("Bird snare");

if (gm!=null) {

	dostuff();

}

You may also want to consider checking the 'setup' tile for any existing snares, else you may end up trying to place a snare on an invalid tile! Best of luck.
