    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    The last two rats are massive Dundee - great they are out of the system
    A few kills today - one rat, two mice and one rabbit in a cage - another cage tripped, bait gone and empty cage - not sure how they do it but I suspect a cat is reaching in past the treadle and then backs out
    I thought my rat was ok until I saw yours
    I put one third of the rabbit in a DOC250 - if I was a stoat - I could be tempted - but buggar all rodents on the property so I don’t think there are many stoats around
    Bloody magpies just won’t go inside the cage - as soon as I turn up they fly way up the back

    Second to last time I was down was a mast year. We thought the deer were living right next to hut because the grass outside it was 'mown'. Wasn't until just on last light when they all came out and the ground was seething with rats. Never seen anything like it before
