stealthy1 3,964 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Same on my local patch, fewer rabbits than last year, think maybe the rabbit numbers reached such a point that , the mixy gnats have been more widespread, some warrens on my patch never had mixy, now those warrens do.

stormrider8 59 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Yep its definately like that if you go out local where i live. You have to travel alot further round here now, there are so many more into it now local spots tend to get hammered . Used to take 2 dogs out years back but now like Bird says ,only need the one.

brock1 2 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 it is dead round hartlepool the mixy seems to come later every year so the few rabbits that are left cant breed then winter comes & what is left get picked of in no time leaving just hares that get hamered by the end of the winter it is just takeing the dogs for a walk at night with the lamp.
