Oh good. The moderators have allowed advertising again.
We are currently putting together a level 3 RSPH based in the south of England. Is this of interest to anyone?
Best wishes Jonathan Peck Killgerm Group |

Oh Jonathan! We can't be online 24 / 7. We do have day jobs!! 
Marty - we don't allow advertising of products on this forum, hence my edit.
Jonathan - you spelt England incorrectly - hence my edit.
May I also remind you that, strictly speaking, you shouldn't be advertising the fact that you are 'putting together' a training courses on this forum either....

Marty, Most air brick holes taper as they go in. I have always understood the "biro" reference to mean a longitudinal slot not a round or square hole. The reason they can get under a door with a "biro" gap underneath is because they "spread" their unfused skull bones, rib cage etc. With a round or square hole they have nowhere to "spread" so air bricks are a no go for most mice. Therefore no proofing required unless the AB is damaged.
Sadly there is a vibrant pest control market in flogging useless devices that either don't work or are not necessary and our customers are the innocent and ignorant victims of these frauds.

[/quote Just trying to gauge some professional opinion, thought you lot were pro`s sorry if it came accross as an ad. it certainly was`nt my intention but how can you explain it any other way. We dont need the sales thats for sure, but we have started to supply to pro end of the market and local gov in qauntity. Dont know what vents you been looking at mate but i can assure you there not all like that, not by a long shot. especially the pre war type. |

I had a look before this one was moderated and I have to say that it looked to be quite a nice looking bit of kit to me. Bit of bog-standard wire mesh would do just as good a job, but not look as nice.
I have to say also that i think moderating was not necessary in this case. Part of the remit of this forum should be for people with interesting product developments to let others know about them. If they can't do this then what are they expected to do. I suppose the answer will come back that they should advertise through conventional channels, but is this forum now to be administered for the benefit of those sponsors of commercial forums also available on PCP.
If so, then I think that soemthing has gone pretty fundamentally wrong.
I make these observations in the spirit of free speech, and would welcome comments. |
