    Not yet IMP. But get them out quick before you are sussed. :D But you could just humanely kill the little darlings. (Come to think of it do that quick I hear there is a plan to make everything illegal.) (See we aren't that far apart) [​IMG]

    I don`t see how it`s illegal to release mice back into the wild. They are a native species. Releasing animals NOT native to Britain is illegal.

    Does that include the Staffordshire Bull Terrier David? Sorry. I mean the one's like mine who don't speak English and think 'Come here' means 'Go do what the hell you like.' :D

    Trust me it is,The wildlife and countryside act covers it if you doubt me.

    I had to learn it when I sat my pestcontrol qualifications.

    I find this very hard to believe, why would so many stores sell the humane traps if I can't release the mouse one I've caught it?? what am I supposed to do with it, keep it as a pet?? [​IMG]

    and surely the manufactures of the humane traps would be required to notify purchasers that they are breaking the law should they release anything they catch??

    I would have thought that the laws are relating to professional pest controllers rather than the general public??
