Wanted: Rabbit, pigeon, squirrel etc in East Sussex

[Sheprador1973]

Good day. Have never posted such a thing but this morning thought why not? If you don't ask etc...

I'm asking if there is anyone on here in or around East Sussex that knows of any landowners or shooters with a rabbit/vermin problem they need dealing with please? Could be you know of someone through your own shooting or you are preoccupied with the deer management but the landowner would like the other species present dealt with also. I'm thinking woodlands with a grey squirrel problem, equestrian facilities etc...but open to any options.

I have been an SD member for some time, can supply references, am fully insured and above all I am respectful, conscientious and extremely safety conscious. I have sub 12ft/lb air rifle, 22lr and 12G ( as well as .308...but sadly that's not getting much use right now). Also have a currently empty slot for .223 if that were required. If its relevant, I shoot in order to spend time outdoors in nature and secure wild food.

Thank you in advance if you are able to help out a fellow shooter with a lead towards getting me out of the house more often.

Still on the look out if anyone is able to help, thank you

As nickb says door knocking best way i obtained all my perms this way

I'm sure you are both correct on this, but of course it is something I have already tried (though not righting off the idea). In my experience I've recieved nothing but instant knock-backs...either they're not interested (despite me having observed a pest problem) or already have someone (who it seems they rarely see or hear from). Perhaps understandably, none seem willing to consider letting a stranger on their land with a firearm. Being from London, now living in a coastal town, I have few contacts with the rural community which I think would put me in a stronger position. But thank you for your comments...I'll keep plugging away.
