    Got this wasp nest under all this bush and can't bomb it as I can't get to the entrance of the nest.

    So I made a wasp trap and tied it as close to the wasps without getting stung.

    Absolutely piss bowled a cat this morning in the missus' car. Car's a bit lower than the cruiser, so said cat banged and rattled its way right underneath the car and was smeared down the road behind me.... sometimes I forget I normally drive a truck
    Dundee, Scouser and time out like this.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    The ingredients used for the wasp trap was a tablespoonful of honey and mixed with warm water too disolve. Then added a squirt of vanila essence which ferments in the sun.There has been no sun since it was set The wasps sink to the bottom,there was a dozen in there today. Also shot 3 magpies

    Out after Fallow again, spot them in the mist at 150m but not getting a good target, so move in closer, found f***n rhyolite on our 70 degree slopping track, slip and landed fair on my arse.
    Add insult to injury put my right hand down on the ground to get up and find a nice big piece of Blackberry, now I'm really pissed. Finally find my composure turn on my newly acquired m24 and bingo there they are at 120m on the RUN !!
    Any how dispatch 3 possums and pluck em, then walk back to the house.

    Hi Dundee - talking to a lady today on a rural block who wants to trap some magpies - she sees them attacking Tui as they fly between blocks of bush
    Have you or others got any advice on best type of traps/cages - and best way to deal with them when they are trapped
    She was told that shooting them in a cage wasn’t the best idea as the next one wouldn’t enter
    If she was to shoot them - I guess a 22 is the most simple process

    Hi Time Out,my homemade trap has worn out but was certainly better than the one I are using now. The good old possum cage trap baited with a bit of mutton fat is in use now and I are getting one or more daily.

    I shoot them in the cage with .22 and they keep coming back. It is more sportsman like and fun to open cage and shoot on the wing with shotgun.

    My set up now is working well,live decoy in cage next to bait trap. Have caught 16 this month.Counted 32 up the back the other night.
