Groundhog problems...
wrote in message
ups.com... I just purchased a home and have discovered that it has a major groundhog problem. My backyard looks like swiss cheese! I am buying a havahart trap and the groundhog deterent that they sell. My only issue is what to do with the groundhog after I've trapped it. In NY one is not allowed to transport an animal without a license, so relocation is out. According to NY State, the suggested method is euthanization (since these are vermin). In trying to think about ways to get this done, I thought about the use of a BB Gun -- Has anyone had experience at dispatching groundhogs (at close range) with an air pistol? Is it doable? Most folks I know shoot 'em with either rifles or shotgune and they don't go down easy. Forget an air rifle or a BB gun as you'll just have a ****ed off groudnhog on your hands. Call the local animal control folks and let them deal with it. Loki |

rifle or shotgun are out. Illegal.
Animal control will cost me each time.... I've got a lot of groundhogs to deal with. It could get costly. Even at point blank range an air pistol won't work? |
