Brian How did they compare on price with buying them from Ratbait Brian? Funnily enough (not funny at all really) I had to spend yet another hour today looking for one of my new Talpex traps that had been removed from a good run.... Bloody badgers anyway, found it in the end, minus it's catch, so at least I only lost a tenner.... Quote Link to post
myersbg 1,385 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I deal with killgerm a lot, so asked them for best price on 20, i did alright. Badgers are a real pain here aswell lost some new stainless ones to the black and whites one night, felt like i;d been kicked in the teeth. Quote Link to post

Nicepix 5,650 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I can buy them locally for just under ten euros. That is £7.20 at the current exchange rate so anyone coming over on a booze cruise could do with looking in at a Gamme Vert garden centre while they are here. Quote Link to post

Plus £50 to post them. Killgerms postage costs are just out and out extortion. Quote Link to post
Matt 160 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I think it depends on the customer When I had buying power I used to laugh at the 'list' prices I can see that some pest controllers would put a few traps on top of a bigger order and it would be worth it But for me, these days, I'd buy from the importer.

myersbg 1,385 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Kilgerms postage is under £7 and if i spend more than £125 there is no postage, i just looked on Ratbaits site and i payed less than they are selling them for. Quote Link to post
Mr Wasp 187 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I used killgerm for my wasp stuff, always spent over a 100 quid at a time with various bits, they always charged a lot for postage, which is why i now use a different company. Quote Link to post
