lurchers 2,874 Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 they recon in the next 4yr we wont be able to use poisons unless there is a rodent problem then if we use baits once the problem is solved baits have to be removed.also they are on about using traditional methods like traps,sticky boards and dogs our company has been given the all clear to use dogs in some shops and factories now so its starting to turn that way now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Waz 4,266 Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Shaun, thats a terrible thing. How did he get hold of the talunex? I used to use talunex and still have the applicator and tablets, but never got consistent results with it. Always used to have the van windows open if I had it in the back of the van, was gonna make a roof box just for the applicator. "yes fellas this stuff realy is deadly",,,,,,,,,,blimey Tomo, no flies on you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its scary really mate, the stuff is lethal no exageration, yet if you own a plot of land you can buy it with no training!! I went on a course to use it and it should only be available to proffesionals imo. Like you say, some terrorist need only buy a field and get the land number and he can buy as much as he likes!!!

trapperman 474 Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 even tho the applicater is in a seeled case and i carry the tubs in a seeled container i can still smell it after a job, dodgy stuff windows open all the way home its one of the reasons ive ordered a canopy for the back of my truck to keep it away from me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
