    Given free rein on a meadow in spring, a heavy infestation will bury half the available grazing. This is the time that they do most damage. i had a local contractor wanting to pay me to trap moles on all of his customers field as it cost him a fortune in replacing blades , the blades lasted about 7 times longer on clean fields ,and he had it worked out it would be cheaper to get me in

    i had a fella phone me once wanting dried mole skins , he was offering 10 p each skin and he cut them in half and bagged them and they sell in the fishing shops for £1.30 for a half skin , so he was selling them at about 60 p per half skin , robbing b*****d, i didn,t sell him any

    yip , i was on per mole , just started out that way 21 years ago (scarey)and you kinda get into a rut , the lad thats taken over is on by the hour , better way as he,s not as good as me was told by a customer that a couple of lad were touting for work last year and he asked what price , they reckon it worked out at £35 per mole and was he interested

    i CAN HONESTLY SAY I HAVE NEVER YET FOUND ONE AFTER BROCK HAS TAKEN THEM, I ALWAYS JOKE WITH THE CUSTOMERS THAT IF YOU OPENED UP A BADGER SET YOU WOULD FIND MOLE TRAPS ON THE MANTLE PIECE AS ORNAMENTS. oops sorry about the shouting, cant be arsed to retype. i reckon it used to cost me about 200-300 quid a year to bloody badgers what with lost traps and the price of the mole that was in it , sometimes you found the trap not faraway , but most times it was gone

    From what I can see it may not have been taken in the spirit it was intended. And I apologise, it was 4 posts deleted not 3. You're a veteran member of the forum, Moley. You're well respected and dare I say you may intimidate people to a degree where they aren't comfortable approaching the problem with you. With all the grief that's effected other forums, here, it's totally understandable that people don't want to stick there necks out. Those that don't mind sticking their necks out are called moderators! i don,t think i,m intimidating at all , i am very approachable ( honest) , i sp

    i dye alot of my traps , but never waxed them , a decent coat of spay paint can do a good job too , but the usa trap dye is designed for the job and seems to pit into the rust and stay there,never liked to use rusty traps at all , far too slow and noisey i always found the black trap dye was a bit too black

    cheers chris ., but complaints about what ? having a laugh ? sorry , i didn,t realise this was such an important issue , who can catch the biggest rat , some folk want to get a life and stop go running to the moderators , if you have owt to say put a post up and stop hiding behind your keyboard why not say who deletes posts and why ?better still tell the sad fuckers that complain to tell me and then it might stop all this shite

    MOLEY , WHEN YOU USED THE PIKE TRACE WIRE ..... WAS IT A SINGLE STRAND OR SPUN ? DID YOU SPIN IN ANY BRASS ETC ? ALL THE BEST DUCKWING it was 7 strands spun used it as it came off the spool and i used it without any brass , the heavier stuff is difficult to get now , plenty about with a plastic coating , but thats no good, never tried it for owt but squirrels and a few rats, the stoat was an incidental , i talked to p@g about it and he swore by 4 strand brass but said he got a % of breakages ,i never got a breakage when the catches were hung off the p
  22. moley
    i use pike trace wire when i can get hold of the stronger stuff ,drennan 7 strand in 50 or 64 lb breaking strain , anything less just isn,t strong enuff , no good for anything but poles or somewhere the caught animal can fall off,works for rats ,squirrels , had a stoat once , tried it for rats once just pegged like a rabbit snare and it broke
  23. moley
    i have bin known to catch 1 or 2 :secret:

    duffus type for me every time ,i use to use nothing but scissor until i learned the hard way, i have tried every trap on the market , even american gopher traps and while some were very good i still go back to the duffus or half barrel for all mole trapping , talpex are a good trap too in certain situations
  25. moley
