Small just big enough for a Squirrel or a small rabbit. I been baiting the damn things with peanuts and they like them.
Good idea on holding the trap open till they get use to going in. I'll try that. Thanks Charlie.

Crystal used dry cat food and sardines. Mixed gets cats, coons and possums. Why do I sound like Uncle Jed?

Trying to catch skunks? Now that's a cagey animal.
I'm not sure what Squirrels like but think more of a nut or grain.
I did not realize until recently that it is illegal to trap squirrels and release them in a different location. You can kill them but you cant relocate them. I guess they usually starve to death when yuo do that. Thats the law in MT anyway.
Don't even like shooting Skunks in my yard.
I've had good luck with my 410. Take a chunk out of the top of it's back and it cant spray. Taken probably 6 or 7 that way.
I have no Idea here but the ones in my yard will be dead after all the problems they caused.
I like animals and I don't hunt for sport, just trying to protect my garden.
Good to know that.
My BIL has wiener dogs (Dachshund). They are squirrel killing machines. They are faster than you would think.
I had know idea they would be able to catch a Squirrel.

Speaking of skunks ever since they legalized pot here the damn things took up driving on the freeways. I can smell them all of the time driving into the city and out.

I hate the smell of pot.
Every time I go into the Post Office, it smells like pot.
I bet that's why our postal system is all screwed up.

Sitting on triple digit heat index until at least Weds. Still out of the drought, so that's a plus.

There was a huge turnout at the funeral home yesterday. They only do it once a year but they put on a great show.
It started at 11am and I was there at 9:30 and half the lot was full already.
We managed to find a shady spot by the building and we did have a breeze but still hot.
A lot of prizes but I didn't win anything.
I left at 2 and was dragging my butt. Had a snooze for an hour.
Our usual Monday night cruise tonight but going to be really hot again today.
Have a great day guys

John must be so proud of her...To carry on the name like she does. First of all, having a child with the same passion as you would, is one thing..but being good at it, is truly a blessing in my eyes

Only live trap I’ve ever used is my homemade skunk trap. It has a rocker table for a floor. Door propped open sardines on far side of rocker table. Skunk walks in trips the table, door slams shut and locks. Trap is made from plywood small enough so it can’t lift its tail, with a small hole in door so I know it isn’t someone’s cat. Then stand trap on end and put garden hose in. Problem solved. Imagine it would be similar for squirrels.

With a 12 gauge and #2 buckshot it’s usually a smell free operation. With a rifle you better be good with it.
I'll try that Mark but the hearing aids without it sure works good. Best set I've had and can't thank you enough.
I set the trap up last night and sprinkled a few peanuts around it and put a hand full in the trap. Also some peanut butter Chex cereal.
