affects of the drop box

nope, if you thing that is the way, then why not shooting?? you can get way more and you dont have to feed your rifle.

I doubt it'll affect ferreting in any significant way, there are many ways of rabbit control, but ferreting has been a time tested method.

Some of the areas we ferret have drop boxes along the fenceline on the edges of the woods, there are still plenty of rabbits around, although they probably do help to keep the numbers down. Due to the fact they have to be checked very regularly, more often than not they aren't set as the keepers are too busy elsewhere to have the time required to do this. It hasnt really affected our ferreting, although we rarely get big numbers, theres enough for a bit of sport.
