Katch, would you be surprised to know how much this quad moley boy, charged per farm, when he first appeared here, bout 5 year ago,......£250 !   no matter how 'black wi moles' ! , gives them a weeks attendance (still not sure if hes actually over the 5 days or 7,.......& I remember thinking then, how the f**k am I meant to compete with this now ! ? ?  lol

I've observed (when passing, before) he actually bangs all the traps down, over a couple of days (if bad) , & I reckon he picks up end of the week, in reality,....not checking in between, etc

Uk putange was doing them for 6.50 or summat daft but can’t do it no more the supply has dried up, think they nearer a tenner now but would have to ask again to be sure, there’s none just now tho either an they are waiting both them an a talpex type that is meant to be as close as Damn it to the talpex but I can’t comment as not tried one yet. Lodi are doing a similar one aswell. It’s the best of a bad bunch iv tried so far when compared to a talpex, but again i only grabbed the one off a mate to try an it’s only been a few weeks an a few moles but it seem to be doing the job, not used it in real claggy soil yet tho an that’s when the extra spring power in talpex comes into its own imho, but anyways haha I’m sure that the lads at putange site will match anywhere else ( when they get stock In ) ?

What's price on Lodi talpax don are thay as good as UK purtangs ones thay had ?

Hope they getting more genuine ones in again, I’ll be paying the extra I think, atleast for a box or 2. 
 

i just opened my last box a tunnel traps this morn an set them after I popped in golf course, that’s me down to what I got in back of car an iv got another 2 gardens to look at today an the phone ain’t even started ringing yet ☹️ Hopefully they get some soon 

How many traps are you using atm?

I do like the genuine Talpex for the spring strength you need that extra punch in our gritty moorland soil.

Due to a bout of extreme laziness,..? I am cutting down my workload...and,.. I have a lot of nice, used Traps for sale ?

Some Talpex and plenty of lovely Putange...all working perfectly and to be priced , sensibly, for keen lads...

Just off to London on business, but I'll sort out a list when I return,...if I return...?

All the best, OldPhil.?
