Hi I'm close to gretna and always on the lookout for some more rabbit control, usually with ferrets or with a silenced rifle, have to keep expanding as I have got most of the farm well under control with the rabbits.

iv only ever seen since 2 wild rabbits on our farm in 6 years, and that was when a pet one got loose and they teamed up together til we got him again. we do have hares though but theyre no trouble to us.
-
lucky you! we have an infestation >:(
-
we have a burn and river all round our boundary and quite alot of foxes so i think maybe they were hunted out or dont jump the river. apparently hares and rabbits dont share same ground, same for rats and mice - dont know if thats true tho :bunny:
-
No that’s not true we have mice and rats

Why not? (apart from the fact I'm jealous you even need to ask!).

If you gave a general location someone on here may be happy to carry out some pest control for you. A mix of ferreting & shooting will usually get on top of any problem.

With social distancing of course ;)
Makensure you rifle is at least 6 ft away from the closest rabbit
-
If somebody were 6ft away from me and waving a rifle, I wouldn't think that very social, regardless of the distance!
