Top notch, ferreting how it should be. I would need to go back 10 or 12 years since I saw that many rabbits coming out of one warren on my permission.

Frontline is best and easiest, if you can't get a hold of any, you can also get tick removers you can get theese from the vet or good pet stores, they will only cost a couple of quid, tweezers will also work fine so long as you are carefull in slowly extracting the ticks from the ferrets skin (you need to make sure you get the whole tick out). Remember to spray or wash out the ferrets bedding and living quarters, there might be more in there. Don't use general cat or dog tick remover applications, the toxins in some of them can be to strong for ferrets.

Hi Kreet, I am in Dunfermline and looking to start ferreting again, have an untried polecat jill and plenty of nets, plus transport.

Do you have permission on the land you ferret, would be more interested in working without the dogs for the main part. Give me a shout and if nearby we can try and arrange something. Cheers, Andy

Has the locator been used at all or is it "brand new". I am in Dunfermline and would be interested in buying. Thanks, Andy
