Pricing a rabbit job

[Rabbithunter 456]

been given a chance to do paid rabbit work, in a private garden & orchard. I used to get a few from here ferretign years ago, but eventually grew to love ferreting on the open warrens that we all love to do so i stopped going, turning up now and again with snares & traps.

 

What sort of hourly rate do you pesters charge ?

Sorry to be a kill joy but you are going to have to use other methods as well if you are to realisticly stand a chance of doing a thorough clearance job.as for pricing the job i seem to remember someone who should know gave you some insider info.

I was just asking around, to see what others would charge

I charge £45 per visit for what ever the visit entails ie. be it long netting,setting or checking traps + wires, shooting or running a dog.

If it is a gassing job the Charge is £35 per hour plus £25 per gas flask used.

Rabbit control is part of my business, last summer from one industrial complex 831 rabbits removed over a 10 week period, work could only be done at at weekends due to the bunny huggers that work there. So basically friday night shooting with air rifles, gassing on Sundays. The total bill was well over £2000 and we got to keep the rabbits that we shot. The rabbits were sold at 50p each with pelt and paunch. All in all not bad when you think we loved every minute except the gassing,( Hard work). I struggled to get help at the time. By the way the £45 is per man.
