Badger Badger Badger


On one of our grounds maintenance sites in Dorset we have had some major problems with naughty badgers. They have ripped up what was once a nicely striped lawn and it now looks like a herd of elephants have been through. I never quite realised what damage could be done by these naughty animals. We have discovered that they have been digging it up to expose grubs that have been living under the surface of the lawn. The lawn is now going through a treatment to kill off the grubs and it will then be re turfed as is beyond repair. We are also installing a small electric fence to deter the badgers from doing this in the future. Sorry badgers - lunch is over!
