I don’t think there’s anything to moling, try snaring it’s a lot more difficult an I think that’s what helped me catch moles, clives  putange a an his wee vid started me years back as an experiment an I found it quite easy, found talpex an never looked back, recently been asked to start in farms an wanted to save as much time as possible an asked for folk to help me suss out the barrels. Few decent lads offered to come show me but between COVID an work an there life’s we ain’t had chance but after a couple tips iv sussed it anyways or at least enough to get by, always room for improvement an I not too proud or daft to take advice, even if it’s off somebody who spent less time at it than me, old school eh? I can’t remember a time when men shouted at men from behind a computer telling them to come here, but refusing to go to them, you must be a lot older than my 40 odd

I know what a foxdropper was and it's just a  hunt servant who dropped a bagged fox in front of a pack of hounds that couldn't find just so the mounted field had a chase??, whats to respect for any of that cruel bollocks ?..

I was wrong about the Talpex & Putange. ( but hey, i kinda knew) They are both well, up to the job. Once i started paying them, attention.
