any one ever lost a fert with a collar on?

[Guest ARTEMIS]

If you are concerned about fleas try freezing the carcass for a few days first. Should sort that out

 

Another good tip to treasure!

Went ferretin today on a massive warren down a hedge row about 200 yards the hedge row runs down th side of a fishing lake and the rabbit had dug holes in the bank but there was to much cover to do anything with them holes though but we did get long nets put around the henge row surrounding some good holes, we put two hobs and a jill to work , they where just running everywhere it was like a bloody maze anyway we started packing up and picked a hob and a gill out there was now sign of the other hob couldn`t find it on the finder ther`s so much cover and other warrens he could be anywhere been looking alday but no luck im one ferret down and it`s got a £45 collar on

 

 

why where you ferreting at this time of year, its the middle of summer ,

Pest control my friend they are a serious problem here the warrens are collapsing the sides of his fishing lakes if i don`t ferret them the land owner will gas them, i need the ferret food and he needs the rabbits gone everyones a winner, except when i lose my ferrets

Bought a Havahart mink/squirrel trap from a Forestry Supplier (Stanton Hope).

 

 

It folds down so it can go in the boot of the car on every trip in case a ferret gets lost.

 

A mate of mine lost a ferret wearing a collar. It bolted a bunnie that slipped the net, witht the ferret still attached to it's a***.

 

Apparently both were last seen heading into a wood at about 20 mph.
