Update July 2021

We have not been out at all with the dogs as a pack for various reasons but the shooting has continued.

In the last couple of months we have covered several domestic properties that keep poultry in their rear gardens. One customer thought they had just a couple of rats but showing them the thermal and night vision footage, surprised they had more than just a couple.

Myself and Bruce have been going out together covering some of these properties where i have also given a couple of permissions away to other shooters as we cannot cover them all. Partically myself in work all the time.

We have had one interesting and challenging property in a restaurant area in North London. We were contacted by a pest control company asking for help as the rats were not taking the poison and their numbers were now out of control. The rats are not the fault of the restaurant but it is an area wide problem where the local council has made a zero effort in dealing with the rats there. The area outside the premises is riddled where you will see plenty of rats running around the square both day and night. Not deterred by the human activity and very happy to sit and mingle with the local night time crowds. Our time there is restricted as we can only go on a sunday night after 9pm when the premises is closed for business. It has been hit and miss there as due to the dumpster bins constantly full in the stores area and the food resources are plentyful on the floor outside the restaurant, the rats have 24/7 feeding. so on occasions, we have sat in our chairs for three hours and not seen a rat but other times, we have seen rats all evening that has kept the triggers busy.
