  1. I don't do many, 3 a year maybe, always Indian/Chinese food outlets, or staff who work at the aforementioned.
  2. There's an Indian restaurant near me who've had a German roach problem for over 2 years. The housekeeping is shocking, in the time I attempted to treat it the staff constantly moved or threw away the monitoring traps, never cleaned away old food or spillages and made it impossible. I gave up.
  3. Honestly I don't know. The property was tenanted and the occupant was against killing them. She looked me in the eye and said she "heard" a fox outside with the trap...
  4. I agree, Fenns can leave the quarry alive for too long, that Mink I caught recently didn't die straight away. I have been using these recently: Only problem, after this pair I reset and left one on a low lean-to roof, charlie managed to climb up and make off with the next squirrel and the trap, never to be seen again.
  5. No, the other mark is where he caught himself on the cubby.
  6. Whatever I predict I will be wrong.
  7. It's probably just a rabbit drop trap. Find a run, typically under a fence, dig a big hole, bury drop trap and don't set it until the rabbits start using the run/new tunnel again. Then set it, hey presto - rabbits magically appear in the underground tank.
  8. Seem to be clothes moth eggs, but look too big?
  9. I'm going Saturday. Haven't been in 30 years.
  10. Well in my experience there is such a thing as trap shy mole. Usually when the customer has had a go themselves and made the mole wary.
  11. Yeah, that is the question. Why and how?? Anyone know?
  12. I wonder if it will be a good year, it's been freezing at night last couple of weeks, not usually a good sign.
  13. Like a lottery win, my double in 2014, been on Putange and the odd Talpex since then, so will never be repeated.
  14. My current house, 10 years plus here, had someone die in before I bought it. It didn't bother me one bit. After being here a while I kept seeing movement in my peripheral vision, and flashes of movement in a mirror in the lounge. Anyway, after a few years it stopped, I think whatever it was got tired of watching me wanking on the sofa.
  15. All of African descent Greb. Something wrong with you lad . ?
  16. And me and my family were 4 of them. I was walking past some shops when a group of about a dozen gentlemen of a different ethnic origin, milling around on the pavement, and I was spat on, quite deliberately, and got a few laughs for it. It shouldn't matter, but I'm a short little fella, and no bother to anyone. That day I decided it was time to leave...
  17. In England it's legal to snare a fox, snare must be checked every 24 hours and the snare must not be a locking one, so free running...
  18. Dido, I did wonder what I was going to bait them with, the trigger mechanism is odd. What is that square thing you have used?
  19. The decent ones do. I've recently taken delivery of Black Cat traps. They are capable of seriously maiming a human hand. But if you are predominantly using traps, I think you need to mix the type up, as ratty does get to recognise them.
