will_gleave Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Well got a strange phone call early this morning (early'ish 7:30) well it went like this F "is that mr gleave" Me "yes how can i help" F "I got your number from someone (wouldnt say who) who said you can do pest controll" Me "i can whats the problem" F "foxs all over the place" Me "ok ill come see you" F "ok if your sure, its not a lot of land just 500 acres or so, their after my livestock ive seen loads last week, and the deer are getting high in numbers and ive been told i need to get rid of some, they live in the woods, can you get rid of a couple" Me "yeh sure" F "while your on my friend has 12000 chickens an the foxs are after them as well hes a couple of miles down the road and needs help as well, ill take you up if you come" Me "dont worry ill be there" F "thats what they all say and never show up" Me"ill see you tomorrow" Was shocked at this no idea where it came from totally out of the blue and cant belive no one has ever turned up for this guy. Then an hour later another call asking can i come sort some foxs and rabbits out he heard about me from a poster i put up on a village notice board, going to see him after the first 2. Permissions are like busses not had a snifter for 6 months and been very slow on the 2 i have already. Good day really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimblowscash Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Well done chap, I had a similar thing happen with golf courses, tried like ******* for six years without a sniff, in the last four months I've picked up three of em without trying! Just goes to show once you get a reputation for doing the job the permissions will come in.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
