Two Day Ferreting Session..........!

[Rolfe 2]

Nice job Rolfe, where are you erecting the rabbit proof fencing, by the railway fence or at the bottom of the bank on the lawn?

 

I'm not doing the installation, but it is going at the BOTTOM of the bank to shut the rabbits out the railway fence is already rabbit-proof netted.

Just completed a two day ferreting contract to clear rabbits from some playing field embankments prior to a rabbit proof netting installation. Massive connected buries meant a lot of purse nets being used along with longnets as a back-up and to help divide the buries into manageable segments. We finished up with 27 rabbits........not a lot considering the work we put in, but we cleared most of what was there i'm sure. Two unusual things happened during the ferreting session, we had 2 rabbits in one purse net (something i hadn't seen for years) and also 2 rabbits heads sticking out of one bolthole as they both tried to bolt together and became stuck with the ferret behind. Anyway...........a few pictures of the day, and just look at all them holes. As an added note, none of the doe rabbits were carrying young.......and we never encountered any young either........ Normally we have to stop ferreting by now.......so things are very late this season.

A paying job done professionally,pest control not sport,Magwitch and I do the former ,to get the latter.

Had two bunnies in one net about 15years ago ,never two rabbits stuck trying to get out at the same time.

You got the results thats what matters
