Got a grey squirrel problem?


Recommended Posts

Have you found that some of your shrubs and plants have died unexpectedly? If you have then it is almost certainly due to squirrels.

Grey squirrels are officially classified as vermin and anyone is entitled to take control measures. This can only be done legally if the DEFRA approved equipment is used in the specified manner.


This equipment is the Fenn Mark4 and costs ?12.50 and can be delivered locally free of charge.


Please PM if you have any queries.

Have you found that your inbox got spammed by killers unexpectedly? If you have then it's almost certainly due to Green Goose.


Green Goose appears to condone and profit from the killing of small furry animals and anyone is entitled ignore the killer. Letting other animals live can be done legally by doing anything compassionate in any manner.


Compassion is free and can be expressed totally free of charge.


?12.50 can buy shrubs and plants that squirrels aren't too fond of.

"the trap must be used in a manner that minimises the likelihood of its killing, taking or injuring non-target species;"

...

"The traps must be set in natural or artificial tunnels which are, in either case, suitable for the purpose."

Absolutely correct. As I said in my post """This can only be done legally if the DEFRA approved equipment is used in the specified manner""".


The Fenn Mark4 is designed for use in a tunnel (with an internal height 0f 15cms) and works best that way- 100% effective, instantaneous and humane despatch. Professional trappers know that and would never use one without a tunnel.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
