    Orderd 8oo meters of sheet netting 6 weeks ago, still not got it, tried phonening only get anserphone anyone else had problems with them ?

    no you cant mate because they will get tangled on the fence, i beleive that the law in scotland states that they must be set in the open so that they cant become entangled

    are you sure that it was a fox? looks more like a badger has gone though the netting to me mate.

    rubbish! how do you explain battery hens then?? they dont eat any grit??? folks, don't listen to this pratt, he talks a LOT, of BS !! From feeding dogs eggs the passed 20 odd years, i have never seen any ill effect to dogs from them. Lightly scrambled is the best way i reckon. battery hens have grit added into there feed pellets

    your either setting them to low down or to small a noose or both, the bottom of the snare should be about 8 to 10 inches of the ground and the snare should be about the same size as your hand spread open or a bit bigger.

    you only need a teaspoon of it in the back of the trap, dont spill any of it on you as youl have no freinds

    personly i wouldnt bother boiling the fenn, i would just set it in the tunnel with the safety off, you could bait it as well with peanut butter ect, works well for me.

    ive only had sucsess with fox cage traps when ive set the trap inside of buildings, ive used dead chickens for bait that the fox has killed. ive placed the trap against a wall and surounded it with bales of straw ect so that it can only get to the bait via the entrance of the trap.
