    Poor old farmers, they fail to realise we have bills to pay as well.

    There's always a farmer wants it done for nothing. I set some traps on two fields on monday , went to tell the farmer how many traps/ when i'd be back etc. He said i've got another 9 acre field that's covered in mole hills , will you throw that one in for nothing? I said no , i agreed a price for two fields . His answer was , well don't bother at all then. Collected my traps and blocked his phone numbers, pratt cost me nearly 3 hours!

    Really stuffed their nest box with hay , they've made a hole/ nest in it . I try not to disturb them too much either.

    Not sure how good they are , but you can get plenty of mk4 Fenns for that money .Yes i know you have to check them more , but who doesn't like finding a dead rat?

    just re read my post , sorry i believe your 6 shot foxes , but not the post of 6 shots one fox . Whoops , should read before i submit.
  8. Rowan
    Well done mate , nice to see . I struggle to believe the 6 shots though , something went slightly wrong there ! I've shot several foxes at sub 65yrds with a .22lr , that have dropped on the spot , a handy tool in my opinion as is the .17 There is a correct tool for every occasion though.

    Just the wife now , dog, ferrets etc. I've thought about it for years and decided there's never a good time to completely change your life , infact you can come up with a book full of reasons why not to move. Just feel it's now or never . The slightly worrying bit is finding work from scratch , but i have a real passion for pest control and love that way of life . Yes , the new house has a decent sized wood burner , plus we will be two fields away from a distillery .
