Wasps Nest.
comanche replied to Dowen Pest Control Solutions's topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
run , no need to run millet, just get your best (not) mate up there, holding a normal torch, whilst you use one with a red filter, spray and watch them go for him Ah yes the decoy torch trick. But that icicle does'nt look right ! -
Great books there. Probably find a lot of rough prices in Internet Book dealers sites and E-bay .Unless a book is a rarity condition is everything. A readable copy (and what else are books for but reading in the bath?) is always worth something to someone who values content over cover though. Some of the stuff you list is in the under a fiver class but others are definatly a bit special . Libraries have a computer system that can trace books by author ,title ,publisher etc.(See Blue Coyote for other reasons for visiting the library). Don't bother with the one they let the public lo

They don't give much trouble until the evenings draw- in,people have their lights on earlier and windows open because it is (supposed to be ) summer. "Ooh look girls a light ,bzzzzzz". Holland's Hope put a great link to hornets attacking bees up a few weeks ago.

Took a baby ferret out to give it a taste of things to come and get the young dog into ferreting mode without any distractions . This myxy bun came from the same burrow as three perfectly good ones. Just the time of year. Population is at it's peak, weather's changing,grass is wet, all adds up to stress and myxy takes hold of the weaker ones and those born with poor immunity .Probably does'nt affect tiny rabbits because asfar as I know rabbit fleas depend on the blood of an adult female for their life cycle. Something like that anyway.

If you roast it either dip it in a pan of boiling water or pour boiling water over it before you put it in the oven or rub salt over it. makes it go all crispy.

Thanks . He was by Chancerick Casper . Considered a bit on the big side by the breeder so we did'nt pay much for him . He actually thought he was bigger than his 22" judging by the things he regarded as fair game

Spose you might want to paint the black one orange so you don't lose it but I'm sure they both work as well( ) as each other

My Mum in a stubble -field with a whippet circa 1978 Sorry, Not quite what some had in mind I'm sure but she is female and that whippet is a dog!
-
She's female and she's with her dog .Picture taken circa late 70's, lady in question now in her late 70's. But just what was my Mum doing in a field of stubble with a rather fit- looking coursing whippet?

I'm relatively new on here and not that well -up on using the site or computers in general but I hope no one minds me making a suggestion. I've read the entries and voted. They deserve a wider audience. Why not post and pin them in one of the forums for a week or so? That way they are bound to attract more attention. Some sort of voting /rating system could be put in place at the end of each article. As I said ,I'm not that clued up on the mechanics of these things and there may be technical

Really suits her too Mackem .You know how some children are said to have old souls ? Well she is a newbie.Bright little 5 year-old fairy. Her little brother is an old soul -takes after Mum. He's called Dennis. Stalwart name.

My Mum is called Joyce Mabel Winifred.My Great Grandad -Octavius Algernon. I myself had a very close call because the vicar had'nt seen me before the Christening. , " I name this child....For F*cks sake its a bloody monkey!" MY Grandaughter is called Summer after the time of year she was born....It's a good job that she was'nt born at Christmas or that my daughter did'nt go into labour at Traffic lights because her married surname actually is Light.

Mission accomplished..... Ad libbed a bit but you put me in right direction Thank you very much Speed lamper! Next numpyy question. Will the information stay in the USb flash drive thingy or can I delete it now its been transfered?

I am to computers what Idi Amin was to democracy. Can someone spare a few minutes to help me? Got one of those USB information exchange things."Data traveler 1GB". Managed to load some photo's onto it from a computer with no Internet connection. Also loaded a three page,A4 sized document that had taken me longer than I care to admit to type . Wanted to put the lot into this computer because it is on the Internet. Photo's loaded fine but document stayed in the Device. (hope that makes sense). Am I silly in that these devices can't transfer documents only photo's? Or mor

Just had to add this...I reckon that a lot of you won't have the faintest idea how much Ditch 's been involved in the promotion of fieldsports . Time and expense freely given. Rumours of covert activity aimed at combating the antis.( I certainly would never have driven him to that phone box if I'd known that it might have caused disruption to the Anti-Hunt ball ! ) His work for the enviroment ? .The recycling -long before it was trendy . Always carried out with intense enthusiasm . Dunno where the idea that "he decided to call himself a pest controller " came from. The mush is a hunter

Ditch ,a dirty old hermit with" issues".? In 1985 ,devastated by the untimely death of my lovely lurcher I phoned Ditch in tears . Yes in tears. I needed another dog to bring -on, a puppy to give me a new interest and purpose. Ditch made the calls ( He was'nt the only person on this site who was involved ) and I ended up with what I reckon was destined to be my "Dog of a Lifetime". I could say many good things about the man and still not give true credit to his multi-facetted talents and unique insight.. But let's face it the Ditch Sh*tter we know

This old bugger is about 100 years old but still up to a bit of ferreting.In fact he gets even grumpier that usual if he,s left behind.
-
Ditch's gone . Had his reasons , If he wanted everyone to know em he'd 've said.Discreet exit. I'll miss him(on here) .Knowed him 25 years ago,got on THL and even with a move to Ireland and the "Ditch Sh*tter" tag I knew it was him just by the way he wrote! Bit of a coincidence .My first time on a computer ,first time ever on a "site" of any kind and within a couple of days I'm thinkin ," That Ditch Sh*tter" has just got to be XXXX!

Showed this pic before .They really are great insects. Thems inches not centimeters for the younger veiwers.

Just visited a friend in hospital. She's just had a hysterectomy( Only in her thirties too .Bet she was gutted! ) She's had a bit of trouble with low oxygen levels and a nurse came round and put a couple of little tubes up her nose . I really don't know what got into me but after a few minutes of idle chat I reached over and pinched the air - tube for a few seconds. Mildly amused, my friend pretended to pass-out and I released the tube. Woosh! all the pent -up oxygen I'd trapped in the tube shot straight up her nose!. She then collapsed into uncontrolled laughter intersp

As everyone is saying", Domed, we're all domed". As for practice? Obviously you should practice and set your sights up with the same pellet you are going to use for work.

Can we do aTHL problem page...? Dear Comanche my girlfriend is carrying another man's child .What should I be doing ? I forgot to add that we have a daughter of our own . from "Straight"of Brighton. C says; Well "Straight" of Brighton. Obviously you should buy her some glasses.This will stop her picking -up the wrong child. Or could it be that your own kid is an ugly little bugger and she is trying to swap it for something better? Also tell her
