Fresh digs again next to the house today. Both sides. Egads. No wonder why that fisher cat has been hanging around. I'm just giving him free dinner with all the carcasses. Got to spit out that little lead pit though

5 at the shop today and a mouse inside on a trap. Found an injured bird today too. He's sleeping in a box on the porch. Chipmunks got into the chickadee birdhouse and ate all the eggs

Fresh digs still!

Son comes out yesterday when I was standing behind the truck waiting for him to come out of the burrow. He wants to help so I put him at a corner of the other truck and tell him to stand like a statue and be quiet, if he sees anything move to tell me.

SOB!

Doesn't a chipmunk pop out FOUR feet from the kid. NO WONDER why I have been having a hard time getting these bastids in the driveway. Because while I'm standing there watching the burrow next to the garage the damn things are laughin at me and coming out 5' behind me. WTF

no fresh digs today

I still hear them around the pool but haven't started attacking them yet. Pool is leaking again. Might be a remote detonation of 20,000 gallons. I'm thinking nothing would survive

Set up a remote video and film it like it was a scene from "Earthquake" (the dam-breaking segment).
Maybe you could rig it so that the "flood waters" would fill their burrows , kind of like the hose-soaking scene from Caddyshack?

Nice.

Fresh 8' burrow under the pool liner. Wasn't happy with a single lane the friggin thing had to go double wide. WTF.

That got 1/2 gallon of bleach all around the base of the pool again. That seemed to work pretty good last year.

Fresh burrows all over the backyard. I found a vole burrow now too. He popped out I wasn't that quick a shot.

I've lost count how many now. Dam! I never ever figured there would be this many!

Big black poo in the street at the top of the driveway yesterday. Looked like larger animal poo. Coyote maybe.
