Hi Foxy it is basically made from horse hoofs clippings and the " Frog " the soft part in the hoof , then you then boil them for 1 hour or so out side then transfer the liquid into a demi~john and leave to ferment for a few months in the sun (toe nail soup :sick: ) be careful if you splash your self , you will be wearing it for weeks . I can say that the dogs around the stables can smell it from a long way off and if they get a chance to eat it they will , the stable girls lock thier dogs away when the Farrier arrives because if the dogs eat it they will be :sick: John Galway on this for

A good comment & reply Trapper , right T25 get your hands in your pocket & pm Moley on this forum & see if he has got any of his video,s left , and only buy the British made traps ( try the Flatpackcompany . co.uk ) that,s where I buy my traps from , secondly you will need a probe/dibber (try warrenfarm.co.uk ) and when the rain is running down your back and soaking your under~pants and if you ask your self ,what the hell am I,m doing here? then mole trapping isn,t for you !! it,s a long hard road with a slow learning curve every job is different , almost forgot you will need

stephen58 replied to john hubery's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
A BIT BIASED , what do you call up north , us boys from the south think that if we go pass Watford we will need our passport,s why don,t we have a north v south comp ? all entries must be accompanied with a photo of the rat put along the side of a tape measure from nose to the tip of the tail ! I think we might just win , all the shoot,s & farms down here are a live with rats at the moment Steve -

Hi OTC , thank God it was caught in time , if you look in the Pestpro forum there is a link about a lady who died of Wiels disease in Brighton , it amazes me when i,ve been out ratting being a pro pestie how many of the lads pick up the dead rats by the tail,s , little do they realise that the rats tail has been it,s urine (only a matter of time ) I tell them about it but they just laugh ! I just walk away and shake my head !!!! just a footnote for Stubby , I know what you mean when you want to go for a quick fag break etc ! and have no accesss to some water to wash your hands , tell your bo

Hi Tikkascot ; the video shows you how to set the Duffus/half barrel; scissor ; Talpex and Fenn scissor traps and how to fine tune all 4 of them;the video covers all aspects of Mole trapping ; I personally use the half barrel traps;type in www.the flatpackcompany.co.uk this is where I buy my traps from ; also have a look at www. warrenfarm.co.uk ; it will show you why not to buy chinese crap ; they also sell probes for locating runs and traps;best regards Steve

Hi Tikkascot ; the best thing you can do is pm " moley " and buy his video ; the best £30 i;ve ever spent !! it shows you how to fine tune traps ; how to find connecter runs ; etc my mole trapping has improved so much " it beggars belief " always buy British made traps ; not chinise crap ; cost a few £;s more ; but worth it the long run ; hope this has been of some help to you Steve

I can see where Donky7 is coming from with that design ; it;s so that the Fenn is level like you would set it in soil but in this case it is being set on concrete ;hence the ramps and floor ; so once the Rat has entered it;s good night ; the same with JohnB ;s design ; I think that both designs could be useful in feed sheds with concrete floors etc!! regards Steve
