A topic, I am interested in. Do you guys that set up get enough interest to pay for your time and table rent?

Thanks Mike, I don't suppose you have a picture of a display they did for you?

Offer something like discounted inspections or something, offer a drawing for a mole trapping program or something, you will be shocked at the response you will have, we only do the large ones, 50 thousand plus attendance, check with organizer to get last years real number, not projected number.

I have done local ones like Old Home Days. As a display I have a banner, some traps (cage traps), and photographs of catches. I get people that will stop by chat and comment on the photos. You will also get the people that will ask for free advise. I have only done three. The towns charged me $25 for a table. The expense is buying the tables, chairs, portable car port/shelter, and making the display materials. Photos blown up cost $7 and up a piece.
The last one I did I left early because I had to remove a groundhog. My wife and seven year old son sat at the table while I was gone but, I know they didn't chat with the passers by. I did get one beaver job that paid $700.

It never occurred to me to offer a draw. I will do that in the future. Thanks Mike!


The measure of a man is what he will do when he knows he won't get caught.

When you offer a drawling, you capture name address and phone number for future possible mailings.

What kind of shows are you doing. I am thinking about doing the home and garden show here.

Home and garden is a home run for moles....
We do home and garden
Home and remodel show, we do insulation, so that ties in to the remodel thing.
