.philmypower. 26 Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Got a new hole appeared on one of my permissions and the farmer has asked me to sort it out. My terrier is going nuts at the entrance, she's going in and out but I don't want to egg her on as not 100 percent what it is, I think fox! There are no hares present around but chickens are going missing as well as geese and there is just the one hole. I've looked everywhere but can only find one hole, what are your thoughts? Thanks Quote Link to post

Britishbull24 131 Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Iv tried sand a couple of times. Workes a treat. Even better if its a bit wet Quote Link to post
