  1. i ordered 6 talpex from killgerm a while back to try, just one hole was a bit rough just filed it down. all in all killgerm are pretty good i reckon. glad you got it sorted
  2. good pics mate thanks for that, keep em coming as it grows. got all my kit now except dr5 and lances that should be here tomorrow, cant wait for my first call.
  3. the pay is great if you can get out on your own, my mates a tree surgeon and he turns over around 100k per year (my wife does his books) just him and one sometimes two helpers to chip up etc but having said that it isnt cheap to set up on your own with good saws around £8oo each, insurance, truck, chipper a good one around £15 000-£20 000 etc etc but go for it mate
  4. i started making my own a little while back and i got a 0.5kg spool from deben online about 17 quid, i`ve made 40 sofar and theres still alot left.
  5. my front garden is to small for my fox traps(i couldnt hide them) but i have i couple of dozen rabbit traps have never caught a cat in them but they could work. i could just plead agnorance and say i didnt know it was there cats
  6. i am armed with a super soaker, a low powered co2 bb gun semi auto, and a black widow caty but am yet to see the buggers doing it. it just gets on my tits all the laws out there getting in everyones way and yet cats and there owners seem to be above the law and you just have to execpt that someone elses pet is ruining your life and tough sh#t. its not right i know people have been done before for shooting them but i can fully understand it now, I FOOKING HATE CATS will try the water and pepper
  7. just wondering if anyone has got a way of keeping cats off my garden, i had no problem until last year a family moved in 2 doors down with 4 mobile s##t factorys. i`ve used the gel type crystals and they work for a bit but i dont want to have to keep spending 10 quid a month on them. i`ve had mixed advice on the sonic type and would just get nicked anyway as its my front garden they are crapping on. my whole front lawn is covered in crap and i`ve had enough, trouble is they are a nice couple and the wife signs for my parcels and stuff all the time when i`m at work so i dont want to fall ou
  8. i was an under keeper many years ago out henley way and we saw one from time to time
  9. i now get mine from flatpack but i used to get them from ratbait.com they are an import but a good one made by peststop i still have about 30 of them they are good and cheap.
  10. try to use what they have been feeding on where you are setting the trap i use cages but i only do domestic type jobs mainly when the chickens in the back garden have been had, if possible i use any dead chickens or parts of that are left but i have caught them on rabbit, pigeon, fish, cat/dog food, tuna fish(can of) i even had one that was digging up the garden where the customer had put blood,fish and bone fertilizer down and i caught him by using this at the back of the trap. just keep changing baits and you will get him
  11. i`ve reared your basic cobb type birds and on free range they are preety good i also breed light sussex chickens which are supposed to be a egg and table bird but they dont fattern that well i would say the best traditiional breed for the table is a dorking or a cross from one
  12. you seem like a nice bloke but i get the feeling that you would piss yourself if i got stung . thanks for the advice tho. bring it on wasps :aikido: :weight_lift2: :showoff:
  13. the extendable lance is only £37.07 thats bloody good value i thought, i think i will get this and 1 or 2 standard extensions as matt and ratsnatcher suggested. i do like getting new kit i`m like a kid at christmas. but i still want to know will the buggers go up my trouser legs or do they aim for the head i dont want to get stung on me wedding tackle
  14. oooohhhh lardy cake i forgoten about that warmed up i`m off down the shop now
  15. i got the delux bee jacket from killgerm, why its delux i dont know but it seems o.k i got it in xlarge so theres a bit more room for crawling around in attics etc: i also got a webbing belt to hold it tight around the middle. is it worth me getting some trousers with elasticated bottoms (will they get up there )? how often do you find they attack, i have done a couple over the years in my own garden with permethrin ant powder with no suit i just did a couple of puffs then legged it, but i guess this is different than the odd time when you are stuck in an attic with the little blighte
  16. yea this is my first year on it i`m looking forward to it but am sure it can get a bit hairy at times Well its not so bad, apart from when you get an awkward one in a loft and you pop that torch light on and there is a wheelbarrow size nest covered in wasps looking at ya! All the wasps are up for it saying "cmon then you f**cker" You know the types, they are pointing at thier arses and saying "f**k you" Yea its not so bad... Make sure you take some photos or better still pop a youtube video up of your first nest Be carefull of these feckers the one at the bottom looks
  17. yea this is my first year on it i`m looking forward to it but am sure it can get a bit hairy at times
  18. just a quick change of subject, has anyone used the wasp wand lightweight extendable lance for the dr5 as killgerm have it on offer at the mo if you buy both together, i have brought a dustick already but its my birthday at the end of the month and i might treat myself and have the best of both worlds. is it any good its very light about 1.5 lbs i think
