  9. as a side note...pest controle is IMO a all or nothing job where customers (even more so if their farmers) must come first at all times now when i was working on the farm i could only do weekends and the odd night hear and their and my "round" sufferd as did my reputation! when the chance to go for it come i made sure i had a months worth of mole work to see me thru..used my last payday to buy a cheap quad and as many traps as i could and away i went! now! being a young (almost single) mam my needs financially are small,fuel..dog food (i have a good flesh round) and gear to trap with! a bit
