Well done Sean.......a verdict for common sense at last. As someone who has had professional experience in the past of working with people suffering from depression i know all about the varying degrees of its severity. Good luck....and enjoy your new found pastime. Regards Rolfe

Just another piece of useful advice (or not) to share with you fellow trappers. If when transporting your Mk 6 Fenns in the trapping bag........it pays to have them pre-set on the safety catch. This helps in two ways: Firstly, you can get many more in the bag because they take up less room. Secondly, It saves an awful lot of time when setting the traps and it is a godsend in the winter when you have cold, wet, and muddy fingers to contend with.......anything to make life easy eh! Regards Rolfe

Looks like he has been set on fire and put out with a shovel........ :sick:

Bit late really to be using the Larsen.......earlier in the spring is best.......but they will catch all year round. If you make a couple of false "Nests" and use broken and intact eggs you should soon entice a bird into it. It may want moving to a different location also..............as this can often result in a quick catch. I had a customer of mine ring me today to tell me what he had witnessed.........A female magpie with two youngsters of the year in tow...........keeping them OFF of the larsen trap to prevent them getting caught.........he said she was flying at them every time they tri

Ah...........but Ian.........they are only imaginary foxes they are catching........ They don't pull much.

That tealer fixing is atrocious........cable ties really aren't the answer.......I wouldn't be fixing them like that ....that is for sure. Rolfe.

The white chair in the bottom picture is where you sat and watched them working then Trace . They have made a good job of those pens ...........birds look really content and at home.......well done to the boys (Oh and the forewoman as well) Regards Rolfe.x

Looks like it ran into the back of bus at high speed ...........Very unusual looking bugger that is.
-
Nice ones Sue..........should have named them Harry and Houdini.........They escaped in Tracey's motor didn't they? ..........They look nice kits though. Regards Rolfe.

Been quiet here compared to other years Bry........picking up a bit now though. Doing maybe 3-4 a day average. Couple of years back was treating 10+ a day at the height of the season. Regards Rolfe.

Another belter Rolfe, did you strip to your boxers and poke it with a stick to see if if they were home? Oooooooo........God.......don't bear thinking about that
-
This was a beauty in a loft today........the work involved to create such a wonderful construction is mind blowing. It is always a shame in a way........to remove such works of art.......Oh Well......bank manager will be pleased
-
Think they are mainly down south........but not quite sure to be honest........they certainly LOOK a different type of wasp thats for sure.
-
although hard to tell from both picture,s Rolfe i also would say there wasp,s did you notice any difference in size or were they all the same, maybe new born queens for next year just to add we had an early season with wasp,s this year probebly a month earlyer Yeah.............all the same size HH.........Not just queens........I treated a lot of nests that were the same last year. One thing for sure.........they are really aggressive little buggers.

Chocolate or Peanut Butter........

Just removed this wasp nest from a ladies hedge.......and noticed the wasps were about double the size of our normal (German) wasps.........Does anyone know if these are the larger "European" species we hear so much about.....they certainly are darker and much larger than what i normally get called to deal with. And before anyone says it...they were definately NOT hornets....... Note the sting on that bugger Regards Rolfe.
-
Are all men the same?..........Nah........they vary quite a bit T...........But you know what they say about boys and their toys .........Let them get on with it.........at least you know where they are and what they are doing and they are out from under you feet as well. Which frees you up to endulge in your own favourite pastimes as well. Regards Rolfe.x

Wow.........better stop rubbing now then till you both come

Join the queue Lass........room for another one

As the post says Lass.........one hours rubbing.

Yes exactly as the Grim Reaper say's........you must stick to the SGC rules and regulations

Probably evolved as a defensive mechanism..........as a pursuing predator would be attracted too... and attack the end with the least danger to the rabbit.........! Rolfe.
-
You were extremely lucky there............I do about 300 + wasp nests a year and some of my customers have to carry an epi-pen to administer if they get stung......I had never heard of a dog suffering from it as well. Quick thinking on your part certainly saved her life thats for sure. Rolfe.
-
Well what can I say.......what people have been saying about me for years is true then. Thanks mate. Regards Rolfe.x

I use a Theoben Scirroco 1.77 for all my pest control work where anything bigger wouldn't do. I use it to cull feral pigeons, rabbits etc. and for dispatching small cage trapped animals. So it's the 1.77 for me every time. Rolfe.
