Bobtheferret 1,216 Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Could you not have a walk round with an air rifle or something until the cover etc has dropped off? Just to show willing. That’s what I do on the permissions that want all year round control, ferreting this time of year is super hard work! Even with the rain three foot digs in August must be hard going!

Even with the rain three foot digs in August must be hard going! I’ve a good friend of mine who’s got about 50acre if farm and woodland and it’s absolutely covered in rabbits not seen anything like it in a long time and they’ve completely ruined the place it’s even that bad the yard has sunk because of the fresh runs under it but I won’t put any of my ferrets in it because I don’t fancy digging through tarmac lol I must go 3 times a week 1 with air rifle and one night with the lurcher and a day with the ferrets I’ve had a hell of a lot off here for a couple of year now and they show no slowing down we’ve even been out with the rimfire and shot 30/40 a night and still everywhere but it’s all good sport I say unless your the farmer lol Quote Link to post
