http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14xhuunVpPk&feature=youtube_gdata_player. Name this company , who on here Owens this truck .this video is unlisted and will be removed shortly . Also notice how clean compared to my truck .

I'd be willing to bet the name of the company is "Critter Catcher"

So smart

And Dave never even tried to run you off the road. You must have caught him on a good day!

I don't think Dave was in the truck , it was one of his tec , good driver and that is very importen . Or maybe he gets payed by the hour and seeing its Saturday

Did you mean "owns this truck ?" or is his name Owens ?

Thanks! Let me know if you ever see them speeding.

Two hands on the wheel, Pesky...eyes on the road...

Yes owns , Owens went out of biz . No more Owens wildlife .that was DaveK truck that he owns . You don't see Owens wildlife vans on the road anymore . How does one take the Oder when working out of a van , I would not own a van for this job . Owens worked out of vans , when Owens wildlife did a bat exclusion they would setup all these ladders all over the place , I guess to look good . I own ladders but just move them around the house like Owens did . Dave do you own a van like Owens did

Can always count on pesky to get in his daily promotion of comstock traps in one post and at least another completely irrelevant YouTube video...lol

......................!

Well then don't watch or better yet post some kool video like Vinke has good stuff . Sure looks like you live in heaven Vinke . Got to be some great fishing around there . Got some real good gold in that gravel out there I hear . Got some more video on ADC network you could go over there and talk down on that to .

Pesky, we own 7 vans ( because they hold two and a half times more equipment than a pick-up ) Does this mean we're going out of business like owns, Owens, OhWins? ( Also, the ladder racks are better )

Actually, unless you own a full-sized pick-up, my wife can get more stuff in her Toyota Sienna; like a four by eight sheet of plywood.

I know you can hold way more but the smell in the van has got to be strong, like ground hog crap Oder has got to be the worse l . I don't know but maybe you just get use to it or something . B$B runs vans here and they would the top earner here I'm just guess because I really don't know if they are or not , he puts his animals on rack hanging off his back Reese hitch . They also put covers over the trapped animals . Is that how you doit Paul or do you just man up

Good post Dave funny stuff

Pesky, everyone asks that question so I'll answer as best I can. I drive the smallest van which can also be the smelliest if you let it. I don't expect my employees to put up with anything that I wouldn't tolerate, so here goes.

1. With the exception of squirrels, which are not an odor problem, we transfer our animals to clean cages. This eliminates 90% of the problem. Here's a good example: I caught three foxes this morning and left the cages that they got caught in at the job. You increase your chances of success if your cage already contains the odor that your target animals are familiar with.

2. By tomorrow morning, my truck is going to smell like the inside of a fox den. I have a bottle of the odor remover that we use at customer's houses, right in the driver's side door pocket. If that odor remover doesn't work sufficiently in my truck, then we shouldn't be using it and it's time to find another brand. If the odor isn't pleasant to you, why would you want the customer to put up with it?

3. Although caged animals don't often urinate or defaecate in the back of a vehicle, it does happen. Cleaning and sanitizing is always a good idea. Foreign odors are not helpful in a pick-up either. I realize that we may have to take a little more time to keep our vans clean, compared to pickups. We have a lot of extra time to do that because we didn't have to run back to the office to get something; it's all in the van!

I've been runnung out of a utility bed truck now for a year. And I dont think I'll use anything else. Its the best of both worlds. Crazy ammounts of storage, plus everyting is separated from me, especially fleas, that was always my main concern with vans.

I'm in a truck now but Paul is right the van is easier to organize and carry a lot of tools and equipment and protect your stuff from prying eyes or fingers. I think I will always keep a truck for towing and getting off the road. My next vehicle will be a dodge sprinter with the utility body.

It sure does! - especially in my trucks. When they see the back door of my truck, they think "Oh, boy - a bathroom! Now I can drop that load I've been carrying for three days!"
