2012. 22cm. Pp.120. Colour photos. Laminated boards.
BASC Handbooks Pest & Predator Control is a comprehensive and practical book which provides a basic guide to all aspects of control. It explains which species can be controlled and by what means. There is detailed guidance on shooting, snaring, trapping, the use of dogs and humane dispatch.
The law governing pest species in the UK is covered in detail, particularly in regard to the general licences which are frequently misunderstood, occasionally leading to prosecution.
Detailed instructions are provided on the effective and legal use of snares and traps with photographic sequences to show how they should be sited and set. BASC Handbooks Pest & Predator Control will also be invaluable to those who enforce wildlife law and need to distinguish between legal and illegal methods of control.
