ShaggyRS6 Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 May sound like a simple question, but I dont know what I am supposed to do with them. At the moment I have them in a bin bag ready for the dustman. Should I do that? Or I can chcuk them in the feild next door for the foxes. Advise would be appreciated.

ShaggyRS6 Posted April 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 bury them, burn them , chuck the odd one in the hedge or do you know any one with any ferrets? I gave them a burial at sea. I took them down to the Estuary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 In my experience mr fox won't touch corvids, and I don't blame him Bury them, burn them or stuff them - I wouldn't chuck them in a hedge or whatever, not the done thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAKEBITE Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 I used to (carefuly and discreetly) hedge them, however I assumed that the foxes would have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferretboy111 Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Leave them for the foxes, or stick em down a rabbit hole, My friends larsen trap mesh was chewed through by a fox and he lost his call bird so dont think that foxes leave them totally. It tried to dig under it first aswell. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAKEBITE Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I can see your point on this but it might depend on the land. A private keepered estate might approve but on farm land with a used footpath running through it it is not such a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich 1970 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 You could try chopping them up and flushing them! In someone elses toilet, of course. It would certainly perplex the blokes from Dynorod! Hedging them doesn't always work, I hedged 9 of the damn things, and they were still there a week later, complete with maggots, bad smell and unimpressed land owner :unsure: I burn mine now in a garden incinerator, lit at about 10.30pm, as they stink a bit when burning.

Theskyfox Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Ebay Them. People on there are silly enough to bid for jars of air and sky hooks....I'm sure you could sell them and make some easy beer/pellet money!! lol jk :unsure: I usually double bag and bin them...but 9 is quite a lot ... -Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich 1970 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Thinking about it, if you went down to the local dual carriage way at 2am and scattered them out the window by the morning (after numerous hgvs etc) they would look like road kill! Just pick different roads each time! Or like Andy says, put them in a jar of formaldehide, and sell them as scientific specimens on EBAY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggyRS6 Posted May 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 I will continue to feed them to the fish and crabs unless anyone can think of a good reason not too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moorland Keeper Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 I usually burn them, but now its become acceptable to bury rats again I'll chuck them in together, they deserve each other! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikkamark Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 It has been mentioned a good few times to leave them in hedges and ditches but i can assure you that it draws a lot of rats around which is never a good thing Foxes dont really like them a whole lot either best to burn or bury them me thinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
