I had a super monster one living under my shed, it ruined the floor. I blew off a shit ton of fire crackers in its den and it never returned

Sounds like its worth a shot....
I know someone with some firecrackers......Here, hold mah beer, and watch this!!!

In most areas it's illegal to relocate them. They have to be relocated by a licensed trapper with the proper place to release them. If you release them you need to release them on land you have permission to do so on.

Find yourself a Jack Russell for the job. The first Jack I had killed about 5-10 per year, couple coons, & 1 possum. My new one has only gotten the small stuff so far, chipmunks & a couple of Muskrats. It is instinct for those types of dogs. I was an hour late to work one morning cuz dog wouldn't come out from under the neighbors deck until muskrat was dead.

"I can smell ya.....:



Found ya.....(3 months old):

That is cute and kinda gross at the same time. I would have to wash my dogs mouth out with soap or something. Get a pellet gun and off em.

Can pellet guns be used in the city of Farmington Hills? I'm not sure I could get away with using the 10/22 considering how close my neighbors are to my yard.

 

[jspec]

They sell them at walmart so I would say why not. I wouldn't be shooting a gun in your yard but a pellet gun is silent.

 

[moneypit]

get a .177 caliber pellet gun, and get the hunting pellets, they go through a chipmunk

You can try mine out, if you would like...I bought it with the intention of taking out the familiy of 'chucks that built condos around the property.
I wish I would of gone with the .22 instead....The houses here are far enough apart, and I play with fireworks enough that no one would know the difference.

Rifled .177 pellet gun, no. It;s a fire arm. A smooth bore BB gun, yes.

8.3t. Firearm; defined; exception. The word
"firearm", except as otherwise specifically defined
in the statutes, shall be construed to include
any weapon from which a dangerous projectile
may be propelled by using explosives,
gas or air as a means of propulsion, except any

manufactured exclusively for propelling BB's not
exceeding .177 calibre by means of spring, gas
or air.

That's what I was afraid of.

To do it all legally, you would need a varmint license and a smooth bore bb gun. You can also use a bow. I have both. :angel:

I've never done it, but if you snipe them from inside a house with a subsonic .22, or a .22 short, it's almost silent outside.

 

[moneypit]

tanerite FTW they would never see it coming plus if you use enough you could build a pool

That is exaclty what I was thinking about doing. Sniping from upstairs windows with the .22
If it did make any noise, I would just go outside and join my neighbors in "what the hell was that"? I point to whatever neighbors house that wasnt in the crowd.

 

[BigWheelinBubba]

You could just make a homemade silencer out of a two liter and some paper towel.

And if he gets caught he can spend ten years in a federal "pound me in the ass" prison too. :lol:

 

[boosted gt]

there is a decent size hole in the yard behind my grandmas garage.. i bet its a woodchuck, i better trap it before it attacks the dog(the dog is a sissy lol)

 

[91trunk]

I feel bad for them, but on the other hand they can be VERY mean. Good luck with whatever you do.

 

[Instigator]

If you have a .22 get some .22 CB longs, must be CB longs they are no louder then a pellet gun (I guaranteed it)
