    I would suggest calling in the professional services of a pest controller before they take up residence in your house ... OTC

    A fox can and will lift the door by pulling up on the mesh - add a simple locking device of some sort and you should hold them more securely. And make sure that they cannot tip it over once they are inside as they will bounce around and if it tips Charlie will escape. I learned this the hard way years ago OTC

    Good point - I have just done mine and filled up the multitude of feeders out there. They appreciate it when it is so cold don't they? OTC

    Has anyone with any experience with using the Collarum trap got any feedback on its performance in the field? PM me if you don't want to post on the open forum - but I would be interested to hear what you have to say OTC

    John, What you saw that night was actually noctilucent cloud not aurora borealis. It was a milky green colour? I remember that night - the cloud was present for a good few hours from midnight until about 3 o'clock and could be seen right down on the south Dorset coast. OTC

    That makes 2 of us then i have already been grilled about how may folks have brought them , hopefully mine will come when the old mans at work he knows where the shed is Just as I thought - I got the 'why are you looking at half naked women like that when you have got me' ... etc etc when I opened it. She wasn't too pleased that Toni had put a kiss on the back of the envelope either .... Sooooooo predictable OTC Well done by the way

    So it is a quirk with the wording of the STAO? I spoke with the manufacturer of the DOC traps in New Zealand in person a few months back and he was not aware of this. According to him the tunnel could (and should) be made to the specifications of their design wherever required - the tunnel is not a registered design or patent, and neither is it 'part' of the trap itself. The main dimensions of the NZ tunnel were made to exclude Kiwi's and the purpose of the first 'chamber' of the tunnel is to exclude the possibility of catching the Kiwi's beak when used in conservation areas. OTC

    YET ..... ;0 I have got a few of these as you know from my recent visit to NZ and they have to be seen to be believed, nothing that touches the plate has any hope of survival for even a short amount of time, they are lethal traps. The issue of the tunnel would be overcome quite simply by producung the tunnel here to fit the trap - but as I told you, without a tunnel they are unusable pretty much OTC

    I have just bought a first edition hard back copy of this old book - it is full of great old tips and traps And since the e-book is free it is even better, eh? OTC
