Hello!

Just wanted to introduce myself to all of you on this forum. My name is Mike, and I am from the Brookville, Ohio area. I have been trapping since I was about 10 and recently retired from teaching. I have been doing nuisance work on the side for years and have recently opened my own business doing the same. I am open to advice or suggestions as I go forward with this venture. I am stronger on the trapping experience side and weaker on the business side, but look forward to the challenge. Hope to posts a few pics as soon as I can get some loaded. Thanks in advance!

Mike, you already have a jump on the rest of us. The most important part of this business is customer communication. Since you've been a teacher, you've had plenty of experience. You'll probably miss the kids but I bet you won't miss the parents.

Thanks so much! I have already found that to be so here. Not just on forum postings, but PM's. I have had the good fortune to get to work with LT recently. I have worked with wildlife for over 40 years and I am amazed at how much there is to learn. Humbled at the learning curve! Loving every minute of it though. Right now I am checking out some of the archives and lurking around checking various topics. Thanks for the help and encouragement. LT, you are amazing.

Hey, I was taught by one of the greatest trappers of all time, Noah! He even threw in some lessons on boat building. I still don't know squat.

welcome to the business world and ADC

Thank you Proline! My sister lived in Cicero for years though now in Florida. You are only an hour and a half from me.
