I follow a procedure which is laid down by a governmenr department called
The Forestry Commission, if you have any problems with that procedure I
suggest instead of trying to slag people off here, you contact them and
put your concerns to them.

You are advocating drowning, which does not appear to be advocated by
the Forestry Commission in any of its currently applicable documents
referring to grey squirrel control.

When I started kiling them about 15 to 20 years ago that was the
recomended method as is it quick.

When I bought the trap the salesman was very precise as to how to set
the trap and the disposal of the vermin when caught, I had no reason
to doubt what I was being told, as it was in a farm equipment suppliers.

If things have changed and there is a sensible method of disposing of
the vermin then I would be prepared to adopt it, but so far no
practical method has been offered.
