Humane "Pest" Control
We live on a small island which is getting rather overcrowded. As we
fight for space with other residents it is inevitable there will be some
clashes.
Traditionally the answer has been simply to kill the animal
either by hunting, shooting, gassing, poisoning, snaring or trapping. All
barbaric and utterly unjustifiable! Our philosophy is that all creatures have a
right to life and a right to live free from pain and suffering. No species has a
more negative impact on it's surroundings than human beings. Without even trying
we pollute and we kill. We have condemned thousands of species to extinction
through our greed. And then we have the audacity to seek to kill an animal for
digging holes in "our" garden!!
Wild animals were here long
before us. Long before we drowned the land in concrete, long before we
introduced other animals and called them pets. The animals which cause the most
problems are usually introduced species - but for that we only have ourselves to
blame as well. They are desperately trying to adapt and survive in what has
become an alien environment. The very least we owe them is a little tolerance
and understanding.
So clearly this philosophy is largely behind our
reasons for promoting humane alternatives to traditional pest control. But more
than that, using our understanding of the species which commonly cause problems
we know that killing them will never actually solve the problem. Other animals
in the area will simply breed to replace it. Click on the individual animals to

instead.
Detailed advice on more species will follow soon -
