An Interview With ... Jim Vyse From Jim Vyse Arks

Can you tell us how Jim Vyse Arks began?

I’m originally from a farming background and spent over 30 years being involved with dairy cows and milking equipment. Then, a mid-life crisis encouraged me to change direction!

A friend suggested I put my carpentry skills to good use and before I knew it I was making chicken houses. A few adverts later and my houses were spreading across the UK.

The rest as they say is history!

What makes Jim Vyse Arks

Hello all,

Yet again the badgers are out in force... we are getting more and more calls this week about badgers either turning over the garden, getting into the veg patch or even turning over the bird feeders for food so below we have some kits that might help you. We are also on the end of a phone to put together something bespoke to fit your needs. Believe me I feel your pain for me its moles and a small dog who are doing the damage to my garden...

So you spent a lot of time
