Garden has been blowing up with all the heat and rain . Problem now is the groundhog! Bastard has been mowing my peas , beans and cilantro down. I found one of his holes Tuesday , he sat there staring at me . So I blasted him in the face with my slingshot . 4 hours later , he really got my garden good! Heh , musta pissed him off .
So yesterday I got a trap . So far , I have got a squirrel and a skunk!

when you find a hole Cheferson
you fill it ....but don't block it 100 %
fill it with broken glass...nails... sharp wire
like old barbed wire fencing anything that will
cut it's front feet... the ones that dig...
don't forget to pee down them too
to say "MY TERRITORY" Get out!

Get giant killer brand smoke bombs at the hardware store, Damon's has them. You have to get rid of them or you will be sorry

No pumpkins yet , so can't use those . Ive been pissin everywhere ! Just let the skunk go , didn't even spray ! Wife thought it was the funniest thing . Heh , the squirrel too, never heard so many different noises ! My daughter sat and watched him for 20 min with out blinking!
I have been using cilantro , pea shoots , corn and cantaloupe for bait . Just put the trap back out , see what I catch today .
Thanks bill. How have you been bro. I told the neighbor about those , as one of the holes is in her yard . The other hole is under the neighbors shed , so no incendiary devices there .

Find hole, put hose down it, turn on water, drown him till he comes up for air than hit in head with shovel, not pretty but effective.Make sure no kids are around.

Nah, use the live trap. I'm not even that squeamish but you're not likely to kill it with one whack and once the thing starts screaming you're gonna regret it 
Only real defense for these critters is a good fence buried into the ground.

Coyote piss.....they sell it at gardening stores....a few drops on a cotton ball in a few old pill bottles strategically placed around the garden works well......make sure you put some holes in the bottles......works wonders for me in keeping them away.

One shot. El Cabong. Buried right in the same hole. But I understand. I was pissed he took a bite out of all my veggies that year. A dog works wonders to keeping the yard wood bogger free.

They always have a second route in and out of the abode. If you use smoke bombs cover the hole with an old blanket so it really suffoocates the bast...d. Have-a-heart be prepaed to shoot or transport. If driving somewhere put in barrel in case its pisses. Or they drown rather easily.

There used to be zero rabbits in our neighborhood. Now that all the cats have died or are in retirement they're coming back incredibly fast. At this rate within 5 years they'll be nesting in my living room.
