Wildlife
Management.
Wildlife covers a wide range of animals and not all need
to be controlled and allot are protected. For instance Badgers
Bats and Snakes are protected and can not be handled or disturbed. In
some cases like Badgers a good solid fence or an electric fence
will keep them out of your garden but if they decide to use your
garden as a den then you have little choice but to let them
get on with it. In all these cases APC would recommend you contact Nature
England
When dealing with Wildlife
there are several methods that can be used i.e. Long netting,
trapping, ferreting, shooting and gassing.
Long netting
Has been used for generations and can be an effective way of trapping
rabbits. By fitting the net along the boarders of the rabbit
burrows while the rabbits are out feeding you can then chase
the rabbits back into the net and humanely dispatch them. There
are other variations on this design which include Drop nets
and lift nets. These allow you to set the nets up in place and
wait for the rabbits to come out to feed lifting or dropping
the net in place at a later time when there are sufficient amount
of rabbits out to catch.
Ferreting
Has also been used to catch rabbits for generations
as far back as the Egyptians. It is rare that a well feed ferret
will kill a rabbit underground generally the smell of the ferret
will chase the rabbits out of their buries and into purse nets
positioned around the entrances. Where we can dispatch the rabbits
humanely.

the infestation at that time and in many cases re infestation
will occur. We can visit your property throughout the year controlling
