  1. good advice above, also dont ask straight away for permission for everything, maybe ask if they have pidgeon problems in the barn, or rats etc, if you can get your foot in the door so to speak, and do a good job, getting return permission for all pests comes easy
  2. after that amount of time, could well be bait shy
  3. I took a few apart to try adjusting, if you look at the photo, I tried sanding down the trigger at the front, its very hit and miss, and loosing only a fraction of a millimeter and they wont set, out of three adjusted, only one would work, Ive screwed this one onto the trap wood in the middle of the four normal ones, re baited and tucked under shed, were see in the morning
  4. i noticed the same when i was trapping mice in my back yard, i put it down to the other mice cleaning the bait out whilst the trap had gone off.. towards the end of the trapping the bait was left in the traps.. why did'nt I think of that here's this mornings catch looking at the way the mouse is on the treadle plate, looks like it was moving off, after eating the bait, will see if I can file down the plastic hook later to make them more sensetive
  5. teaching granny to suck eggs if you read the first post, you'll see Im catching in the CHICKEN SHED, and that Ive noticed OUR CHICKENS catching and eating mice, so would'ent be a good idea to chance secondary poisoning with chickens eating poisoned mice would it when carrying out pest control, you need to look at the whole picture, not just the quickest option
  6. seems not many people have plans, your better off searching the back pages for pictures of boxes, then take ideas from those and make one to fit yourself
  7. that camera was a definate good buy, some great pictures as always, those dykes look like they may hold some rats
  8. tell him to start watching "the dog whisperer"
  9. as we keep chickens, we knew we'd have either rats or mice, the dogs have caught a couple, and the chickens are good mouse catchers too, noticed them catching mice as they tried nicking chicken pellets in broad daylight, anyway, thought I'd get a few break back traps set under the shed, have caught 9 over the last three days, adults at first, and now noticing youngsters, the thing that noticable is I'm loading the bait holders up with peanut butter, which they are managing to lick out completely, before the trap stikes,
  10. all these questions have been asked many times before, use the search facility top right of page, you'll find all the info you want within a few hours
  11. as the title says, very good condition, £50 collection from grays, essex, or postage at cost
  12. e bay has auctions, here it needs a price
  13. Ive had good catchs with whole squirrel
  14. whats the problem with lamps, my dog cocks his leg up them all the time, or did you mean LAMBS
  15. just thought of a better one stealthy, get some postcards, maybe once evey month or so, write one out saying something like "weather great, grass much greener here" see you soon, love the rabbits, then get friends, or members off here, from far away places to mail them to him, so he see's the post mark, christ you could keep it going for years
  16. you should give it a few days, then get hold of a stuffed furry rabbit to leave on his lawn
