I guess so. We had a coon visit our backyard last night. Skipped the chickens, when straight for the trash. Good luck on ya'lls rodent trappen!

I built a very large (tempararily alive) trap for the varmits around my place. It is 21" tall x18" wide and 4 feet long. I too have trash scattering, yard digging upping, chicken killing varmits of all shapes and sizes. Would ya believe that some of the critters have some kind of thingy around their necks. I can only describe it as a belt or type of collar or something. Some of these varmit even resemble my neighbors dog down the road, but according to my neighbors "my dog don't kill chickens or get in anyones trash", so I guess these are some kind of cross between something. Oh well, I guess I will find out sooner or later then it is SSS. LOL

well....... did anyone catch anything last night?

Gotta set out a couple of live traps today. Something cleaned out one of my guinea nests and one of my turkey nest. Just carried off the few eggs that were in there. I am guessing coon or possum.

Something ate the bait and didn't spring my trap. Trying again tonight.

Nope. I set my trap with a smelly can from canned Salmon, and some catfood....and didn't catch anything at all. I didn't think anything was moving about, but I set the trap every couple of weeks just to check.
