It was one of the three i caught that day but no doubles, i have more success with talpex and trapline than i do with me duffus. I will definetly keep him at it, its so nice to see him gettin involved he even helped me skin a rabbit a while back. he loves carrying my probe and a little bag which i let him but a few traps in, oh and my work hat which he claims is magic because when he puts it on the traps he pulls out have caught moles haha

Me to i will keep taking him with me, cant wait to start ferretting with him and my daughter she loves gettin involved, but my mrs keeps telling me she wanted a girl to take her shopping i laugh, she will be a hunter too. Cover still high around my area and still seeing baby rabbits. Hopefully my lad will learn how to catch few moles and make him self a bit pocket money when he older

My main job is i'm a first assistant greenkeeper at a golf course soon to be head or deputy, i only do a bit of pest control ( moles, rabbits, mice, rats, pigeon, etc) on the side mainly through word of mouth, i was considering being a pest control technician, but was not sure i could get enough work to do it full time to be able to support my family, but is is something i really enjoy doing and there is a lot of skill involved in pest control.

iv only been doin the job properly a month (working for a company) and i love doing it, i would advise trying to get into a company or trying to do a rsph level 2 in pest control yourself...the amount of stuff iv learnt in a short period of time, i just think what will i learn in a long run.
