Last year our pens were being vandalised and pheasants killed, for no other reason than the entertainment of whoever was doing it, so I went down and set a trap at the side of the pen.

 

I winched over a 40ft silver birch, tied a rope onto it with a lassoo hoop and made a man trap. It was an absolute cracker .

 

When the leaseholder shoot leaseholder saw the trap he told me to disable it, I tried getting away with telling him it was a fox trap. If a fox had tripped it, it would have launched it from here to London

 

So thats one trap I never got caught out by, although the gamekeepers dog had a close call from it.

 

Awesome. Would be improved with a motion detection video cam.

This man has a cloth, a begging bowl, a tridant and a chillum. My tip for preventing theft, is to have nothing worth stealing. A bit of old fashioned VIZ logic.

They leave doors open in Canada apparently. If people liked each other a bit and were more tolerant, and people were in fact more likable, this would all be irrelevent.

Everyone is just looking out for themselves (Thatchers fault) so everyone is just horrible to each other.

The hippies should have taken over in the 60's. cept they was all hoofin stoned instead. Idiots!

What about your safety system on your container? Has it been left alone?

 

It has been "touched" twice, but that is all, they haven't done any damage just merely tried one of the handles then let it go and left it.

 

It's a bit of a pain changing batteries on the system but I intend to install a deep cycle battery with solar panel to charge it.

 

One big battery lasts a fortnight, it will last a month but on a lower power, I need full whack!!

I reckon in the USA the problem can't be as bad as it is here. Everybody knows the liklihood of the property owner having a big gun is about 100%. Am i right Masterblaster? Surely the fact that most Americans have a gun in the house must scare off theives!?! In our country if we catch em in our house or yard and give em a good hiding, we would be the one in the police cell. total bollocks in my opinion!!
