old'un Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 When you look at those puntange traps when set the gap does not look wide enough for a big fat mole to get through, but they obviously do and from the videos I have watched they catch well, shame there’s no moles left to try them out on.

amateur Posted June 30, 2020 Report Share Posted June 30, 2020 Now, of course, we are left with the burning question. What are you using that poor solitary moleskin for? I am assuming that you have carefully skinned the poor devil and preserved it with some secret potion known only to you and a few dozen Norfolk crones. Will it fit your smallest article?

ratchers Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 Ditchy could make anything if he had this many moles ................but maybe he would have gone mad first🤬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratchers Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 Sorry forgot to add this was an article in my local paper about a MOP complaining about the moles and how disgraceful it was and how its going to affect children who see it and how they will be traumatised forever. Farmer was very pleased with the mole catcher but the NFU are looking into the complaint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean gamekeepers hang out the likes of dead corvids, mole men hang out moles. What an utter nonsense. If my daughters saw this they'd say something along the lines of...."Good job done there...." The kids need educating !! I'd be very interested in the NFU's findings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
