    I want to purchase about 50 genuine Fenn mk 4 traps and was going to go direct to manufacturer (D B Springs in Redditch) as I couldn't find a really good discount on that number. Knowing there's others on here with murderous intent towards the grey menace I thought I'd ask if anyone was interested in going in on buying a lot more? PM me if you're interested John Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    The guy I mentioned is coming to mine tomorrow to give me pointers on best trap placement, he said tunnels or traps on w/blown most effective. There's good FC pdf on gs control and it appears that most of the damage to the hornbeams is done by juveniles in the spring, mostly at the base of the trees

    😳how did you know about that?! 😄😄

    Both the Schaeffer and the kubota look very similar to the weidemanns we used to use for mucking out pigs, v capable little machines, but all those articulated machines can be easily turned over in a momentary lapse of concentration or rushing, I speak from experience 😳

    I saw a goodnature trap being trialed out on rfs visit to an estate last year and I thought they looked brilliant. But I spoke to the vermin man who operates them yesterday (as he's moved in down the road from me) and he said they haven't killed anything with them! He reckoned fen traps most effective. I'm having major problems with them mullering my hornbeams, we shoot about 60/80 a year and it has very little effect. Part of the problem is there's another 100 odd acres of wood here and neither owners are inclined to do anything about em. What's needed everywhere is a combined effort to reduce numbers ( plus a massive pine marten breeding program )

    My eldest son had hi knuckles done about 5yrs ago and they've basically faded out (from washing not dragging knuckles on ground😀)

    I find it weird that so many people have these big roses etc on hands/neck and very little elsewhere.

    I think legally she has to give the other guy the opportunity to put it right (same as if you buy a new saw etc: dealer can fix it not replace it). If he did a shite job and is refusing to come back and put it right/ finish it then photographic evidence and maybe an independent opinion (not you as competing contractor) and then you crack on.

    Yep seems a bit of a drama for a very simple job, knock a bobble or 2 off n fell it, chequeplease n gone😀

    Spoke to my friend who spoke to his dad who now thinks I'm crackers! He can't remember anything about wee, must've been some deviant daydream I had😳. He did however suggest you use sulphur powder: put it in a sock on a stick and shake over affected plants, it is used in organic horticulture and approved by soil association, he now lives in Spain and treats his grapes in this way and said it works well.

    I'm no expert but remember that a multitude of included unions indicated a varietyChinese elm, they had one at local college that dropped limbs in any heavy wind but I cans remember if it had those more rounded leaves. Just my limited input.

    Does it have a lot of included branch unions? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
