Why do we help on a open forum???????
Are we shooting your/yourself in the foot?????? Can ya give me a reason why we should help?????????? Because of people like you and many others that contribute to this site and other sites I have gained enough knowledge and confidence in my abilities to start my own ADC business. Without the people who contribute I would be years behind. I don't have much experience and don't contribute a lot but as I gain knowledge I will freely share it with others (probably not my competitors) because others are willing to share with me. If my ADC business works out like I think it will I will be able to quit my job I hate and do something I actually like to do. Thank you! To everybody who contributes.

To better the industry. Sharing info does not reduce the amount of business available. However, it may cause you to compete at a higher level.

Okay. Out of curiosity, I tried to contact that first one your list. They are a nation wide service that helps to FIND services and after dern near an hour on the computer, searching their web site, I came up empty. The only Goldsboro address they gave is one belonging to a local exterminator here that DOES NOT deal with wildlife. The other two you listed are in the Raliegh Durham area. That's two counties away, so, still not any competition for me. I checked the yellow pages. There are NO listings for wildlife services of any kind. The word "wildlife" isn't even in our yellow pages. The word "animal" is only used in correlation with animal hospitals. On the NCWRC website, my name and number are the only ones listed for Wayne County. There are several trappers listed but no other damage control agents. I've done the web searches before and found nothing. My customers get my name from the local animal shelter or from the NCWRC web site. I went to the animal shelter and asked the superintendent if they get many calls for this kind of thing. He was more than happy to receive my card telling me that they get calls all the time and he has no one to refer them to. Same goes at the Agriculture Extension office. They had no idea who to refer farmers to when they had a problem. My conclusion, after all the evidence that I've seen and investigated, is that when it comes to Wildlife Damage Control in Wayne County,... I'm it!

I believe most post and "help" to get publicity, look smart, and other hidden motives lol. Sorry, thats just my take on it. Or i could lie to ya for better publicity lol. Either way, however, there are some really good folks on here who are giving out good information that is useful. So i suppose everyone wins. The outcome - Who knows?? Another reason I post is to brag about the big fish, put my manliness on display for the ladies, and be the poster boy for humility, cleanliness and the effects of having good thoughts.

Are you having a bad day Dave? I must answer your question with a few questions. First, how did you learn to trap? Spend alot of time re-inventing the wheel? Second, do you make all your own traps? Do you buy traps and lures from people who know how to do these things? The best way for any trade or idea to be passed on and built upon is to, "Stand on the sholders of giants"

In my experience, not just trapping but everything else I have done in my life. I have found that learning from others successes and failures has put me farther ahead in everything I do. I don't have to spend my very precious days figureing out how some things should be done. I spend my time (which none of us have an endless supply of) learning what others have done and to improve upon them, or just use their techniques because they work.

The info I give is worth what ya paid for it. However, if I give wrong info out it can hurt us all by giving (to some) a sensitive topic another black eye. Maybe by teaching the bob and weave I can help somebody avoid the black eye.
