bothbarrels Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I've just ordered my pack of 'shooting cards', I'm going to type up three letters to send out with the cards attached, one to farmers in my area, the other to golf clubs and the last to equestrian businesses,,(paddocks get a right bunnie bashing) each one specifying how i can assist their potential pest problems, if all goes well anyone interested can let me have thier email address, and i'll send a pdf copy Of the letters so you can print them off, and try the same method, I'll keep you all posted. Wish me luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I think you would be better off door knocking and handing your cards out, and then its hard work but at least you can have a chat with the farmer, if you post stuff it may just go straight into the bin.... just my opinon but good luck hope you find something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bothbarrels Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Fair point mate, the reason I'm taking this approach is, the three farms I did call on the farmers were busy and stressed, and weren't very responsive, plus I'm really busy with work at the mo and wont get chance to get out there till the spring so I'm sewing seeds as they say, keep you posted!

Thestoat Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) Cards turned up first thing this morning!!!!!!!!!! give this guy a try he's on the ball! shootingcards.co.uk On the shooting cards, on the above website, its references the vermin controller is "fully licensed". Does that mean under the terms on the general license (as such)? So in theory that license would be self certified in line with the general license act, say for the purposes of vermin control/crop protection & disease prevention?

steve_b_wales Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 If you have insurance, like BASC, this can help a great deal. I had cards made for me, stating this. Also, I stated that i have over 35 years experience with firearms. It might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
