If that's what we are ment to use it will keep the government tied up for years doing the first 10000.
And if you have to do individual licence you may as well put in for all the sections including egg collection....
There will certainly be many applications made by those who do not need such a license and it may indeed swamp the system of license issue. This inevitably will cause delay to those genuine applications where control is necessary. The original poster, bullbarrel, this forum's system administrator, who signed off his post with "Time for all of us to apply for a license and let them see how workable their new procedure is?" should moderate his own post accordingly with this in mind. If your need for an interim individual license isn't genuine, don't apply. The general license has run its course in this area for pest control and has been a very effective strategy, but now it needs refining from a blanket measure, so it can focus on locations that are still a problem and leave well alone those areas that are not. Bear in mind its primary function as a pest species control; it is not a fun time recreational license for personal entertainment.
