Sus Sciurus

[Ratdog68]

My back porch has been invaded, recently, on a regular basis. Tore up a paper sack for my BBQ charcoal, tore up a cardboard box containing apple wood for the BBQ... dumping the wood all over the deck. Declaration of War has been funded.

Enter, the Victor Rat Trap and some Smooth Peanut Butter. It took only an hour and a half... and I didn't have to sit in the cold and scan.

Gotcha!!! (Trap reset, and, he didn't even GET the bait before getting his little neck broke!)

Zestay !!

Where's my new banner Todd?





Do I need to start a squirrel counter thread now? LOL

No dirt clods were harmed in the taking of this menace. LOL

At what size can one submit a squirrel to B&C?

I dunno, this one didn't have much of a rack on him.

 

[OneK]

That's called an inverted rack.

 

[Ratdog68]

This'd be a mounted rack?

Those things can be a pain!!

Pan fried squirrel in butter and onions! They are a bit tough...but tasty.

 

[Ratdog68]

If it were a rural/wilderness critter, maybe. Being an urban critter... not going to chance it.

DINNER!

This is what you have to get for a banner in that category

 

[RattlesnakeDan]

"Urban Squirrels".....sounds like a punk band.

 

[Ratdog68]

Thus far, it would appear this is a Lone Ranger, with no Tonto. Empty trap as of now.

Really? Why not? I'm sure they only eat from bird feeders and garbage cans?

What could go wrong?

PM me yer address. I'll send him to ya. It's been chilly out... I'm sure he ain't gone bad yet. What could go wrong? LOL

 

[FrankT]

probably better fed than the wild one in the woods

 

[Ratdog68]

"Tonto" must be a big brother!! I just checked, and the trap is GONE!!! I'm thinking there may be a corn thief wandering about with a trap on his head, or hand. Sucks to be him about now.

 

[FrankT]

Wire those traps down!

 

[Ratdog68]

Wire those traps down!

Yeah... I may have to. Makes me want to set the entire porch with 'em. I'd love to get a video of a leaping critter setting a volley of them off with each landing. LOL

 

[Ratdog68]

GOT 'IM!!! He apparently jumped forward when the trap caught him, and I missed him in the dark. Tonto's even fatter than Kemosabe. Two in the bag, and the trap is set for a third volunteer!!
