Animals pulling up turfs
I recently laid a small 30sqm section of turf for a client only for several of the turfs to be pulled up by animals over night. Foxes or fiox cubs the most likely culprit based on the area.

Muntjacs are seen, but no signs of prints in the soil.The area had been prepared six weeks prior with no signs of animal distrubance, and there was no sign of foraging under the turfs so my assumption is animals "playing".Reset the turfs and covered the area in hessian I…

Fence post auger
One of my clients has asked me to buy around 2500 daffodil bulbs to plant in one of their wildflower areas!! My back went into spasm as she told me.Thinking laterally...have any of you used a powered auger to drill the holes....I know the ground is going to be a stony nightmare to dig by hand...and at say 6 bulbs per hole I will need to dig over 400 holes 😟😟. So looking for ways of making the process easier and quicker.Thanks.

Three was approximately. 5 small van loads of waste. I charged. £375 including waste. Does this seem reasonable or a bit high? I am relatively new to tree work and find it hard to.know what to charge. Some seem to think I am ridiculously cheap, others about average. Having trouble. With costings for this kind of work unlike…

Winter gloves
