Garden & orchard

[Rabbithunter 456]

There is a mid-aged woman who has problem with the bunnies, i ferret it sometimes but havent given it much go with traps or snares. Went over tonight and she said its the worst she's ever seen it. I set five fenn's and will be snaring it in the morning.

 

In the orchard its theres rabbit fencing down both sides, one side backs onto a bowling green and the other backs onto a ploughed field next to railway.

The ploughed field side has some setts down and all the rabbit fencing is destroyed and have recently had a new box wire fence put up.

 

The bowling green side is a thick hedgerow contained in rabbit fencing. There is plenty of holes in the fence where im going to get the wires on, as the grass in the orchard is cut short so runs cannot be seen. THere is even a fox run through the fence but i might leave him as he will be helping with the rabbits, and she doesnt have chicken's or anything.

 

In another nearby field there is a wooden fence along the railway. Basically 4"x1" wooden lats run horizontally. Spaced at about 5 inch. Similar to P&G's "unusual snare set" so i shall make up some fencewire wraps so can attach the wires to the fence.

 

I shall try not to forget the camera.....

THe box wire and the rabbit fence are about 6inch apart. The rabbit wire was in a perfect circle where they were jumping through. I cut it up abit to increase the kill area

 

 

 

 

DEL from the site giving a hand.

well, none of the snares were even knocked. So the rabbits must be living in the garden. Rather than running through from neighbouring fields.

 

I did have four in the fenn's. They were all just young un's, but its four that wont be breeding.

 

Once i get some more fenn's i shall give it a good go.
