00taz11 39 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 i dont like them things some of my friends and me were supposed to ferret a gd warren no more than 30 hole and of course when we got there it was absolutley wrecked the farmer said he needed rid of the rabbits so he got this guy in with the rodenator so me and especially my mates were bloody angry because we were looking forward to ferret it so there is my views on the rodenator Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scothunter 12,609 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 farmer on one of my permissions has one.Not very sporting in my opinion all he is missing is the SS skull cap IMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jaegervulpes 0 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 All the farmer is interested in is profit margins, so when there is a solution like the rodenator I can see it from his point of view to be honest. Sport is not in his best interest when his livelyhood is invested in the crops. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

osimons89 0 Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 i used to have a defra fact sheet on these things got it from a demo i went to with my college. cant find it now so will quote to the best of my memory. the in and out of it is if you can legaly kill a animal that lives in a burrow then as long as the burrow/earth rat holes Moles is to the best of your Knolage empty then you can use it to destroy the burrow not to kill. it works by mixing a gas propane or butane cant rember witch with oxegen then lighting it. i used one for 4 days not stop on a set aside full to the brimm with rabbit burrows (empty of course) being a lad took it to the limts and found it totaly safe and works well as long as you stick to the instructions. but as with any think if you dont keep up pest control they will come back. not sportive but in some situations pests are pests Quote Link to post Share on other sites
