You and I are on the same wavelength about trap/release -
hence my questions.

I think air rifle is the way to go.


oh, good. i know that trap & release *sounds* like it's
humane, but it's really not.

Drowning -- a garbage pail is what I had in mind, not a
bucket.


how big is your trap? my bigger Hav-a-Hart won't completely
fit in a normal size garbage pail. it'd fit a small coyote
though, so it's pretty big for groundhogs.
drowning is fairly quick, but i don't like doing it.
