If anyone is interested, Here in rural France, If one has a problem with Rats,weasels,stoats,pine martins and ferrets stealing eggs, We fill a old coke bottle with moth balls and put small holes in it. Then place it in the coop, The chickens cant get to the moth balls but the rodents detest the scent and stay away! Cheap and cheerful and works! But dont work with wild boar :evil:
Living stress free in rural France! A dream come true!
