That’s pest control, so whoever is carrying out the control should either do it as a hobby for free or paid if a pest controller. Well that’s my take on it.

As above wouldn't pay or expect to be paid for that.

Kev are you selling or buying ?

Neither...just a query to to see what shooting folk think....to do with some private business

[Brian Springthorpe]

On my permissions I offer free pest control and get plenty of takers, only thing I pay for is deer stalking , driven game and the odd wildfowling trip.

In my work I used private individuals for rabbit and goose control.
The goose shooters were on an as required basis and were all invitees. I supplied the cartridges and issued instructions on how, when and where. The shot geese they could keep up to 6 per gun, the remainder I disposed of to farmers suffering damage.
Rabbiters were on an annual contract which stipulated property boundaries, methods and best practice as often they were operating in public view. The rabbits they could keep, initially numbers were substantial and many went to butchers. I also provided them with references to other landowners.
Cormorants I controlled personally.

Yes totally different over here. I do a bit of terrier work and that’s the best way in getting permission here. They’d be nearly paying you
Yes the formal shooting is very pricey alright!!

the thing is , i used to do a lot of dog work years back on various estates picking up , the class of pheasant shooting was shocking , these guys would turn up in there helicopters and rolls Royce and Ferrari s , and they where s***e at shooting , and the birds came over so low it was shameful....most of them were s***e birds too .....but there they was paying big money for diabolical shooting .......stopped picking up not long after as there was other guys on there with there dogs out of control , running in , biting and fighting other dogs , ripping into the birds ......total idiots ...that was it for me .....offski
