It is our duty

[Green Goose]

It is our duty to help eradicate vermin - especially the non-native types.

The grey squirrel is a foreign species which has proliferated and displaced our native red squirrels almost to the point of extinction. The reds are only to be found in a parts of Scotland a few minutes enclaves in England like the Isle of Wight.

Grey squirrels are officially classified as vermin and anyone is entitled to take control measures. In fact it is our obligation to take positive action. This can be done legally provided the DEFRA approved equipment is used in the specified manner.

I can supply you with the approved traps and safety tunnels. I can deliver locally or you can purchase direct via my website www.trapbarn.com

An approved humane trap is only ?10.50 and the tunnel ?13.00.

Please PM if you have any queries.
