You could get the guy for placing traps on your property and also cruelty to animals.
Shouldn't those birds be penned up anyway?

Short of that though, buy a cell signal jammer, cut power and comms to his building, wait til nightfall, and drive a heavy plant vehicle through his house.
Bit extreme?

OP first needs to find snares on their property, then needs to prove who set them. So far, they have hearsay that the neighbor is setting snares at all.
I sympathize with the OP in that peacocks are very loud and extremely annoying birds. I would not want to live within a half a mile of them... they are that loud.
As far as domestic animals being on a different person's property, either neighbor has reason to complain. Both the cats and the peacocks should be limited to the owner's property.
We could probably fence to keep the peacocks out (good fences make for good neighbors and all that), and it is theoretically possible to fence 30 acres to deter the cats but I can't afford it. There is no fence suitable for that much land to keep a cat in for sure though and I need them to have access to quite a bit of the property. It isn't just mice they take care of but ground squirrels and pocket gophers which make big holes and lots of them which is a hazard for the horses. These cats have a job and it is pest control and they are good at it.
