The present rabbit population in 2007 has been estimated at 45 million and rising annually by 2%, causing upwards of a conservatively estimated £150 million worth of damage to the environment each year. In 2002, this figure was £115 million, with a cost of controlling the UK’s rabbit population of £5 million. The estimate of damage doesn’t include the costs involved in controlling them and repairing their damage. |

I specialise only in traditional rabbit management and control. Not every rabbit problem can be solved by using chemicals. Rabbit warrens near roads, buildings and footpaths cannot be gassed due to legal and safety issues, the methods used by Simon Whitehead’s Rabbit Management are not so limited. |

|
Offering environmentally friendly methods of rabbit control such as trapping, netting, ferreting and lamping, these tried and tested methods run no risk of non-target or secondary poisoning to pets, livestock or wildlife, something of which cannot be said about gassing |
||
| Working in conjunction with the gamekeeper, estate manager, farmer, landowner or tenant, I realise that most land has organised shoots operating during the season, livestock breeding or events. Therefore using my experience with such situations, careful planning and liaising with the appropriate people in charge of such events, I aim to gain the maximum results with the least amount of disruptions to the immediate environment. | ||
