LuckOrJudgement 437 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Just had a text from a householder asking me how much for a lesson on how to set Duffus traps. I said I can teach him that for £50, no problem, but if he wants to learn to catch moles, we are talking ££££'s ! 2 Quote Link to post

trappa 518 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Ive had a call like that, told him to fooook right off. And i never show householders how i set them either. When they watch i turn my back. They can find it on the internet easy enough but im not showing them how to take money from my arse pocket. 2 Quote Link to post
LuckOrJudgement 437 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 It makes you wonder, eh? Is he a bona fide diy er, or someone trying to get a fast track into the game? Or perhaps he's an Anti trying to lure me to my death. I might end up locked in a cellar with a snooker ball stuffed in me gob.... 1 Quote Link to post

LuckOrJudgement 437 Posted October 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 Well, here endeth the lesson. The guy had a job lot of tunnel traps but was having no joy. Poor choices made when it came to siting. I think he's one of these people that relishes a challenge but was getting severely frustrated by not catching anything. I gave him some pointers and then just said point blank what my charges would be if I were to catch the moles for him, and end all the heartache. Now the pupil has become the customer. Hopefully he will sell me his traps too! I didn't ask if he had a cellar or a snooker table. Quote Link to post
