Friend of mine had a squirrel problem he solved with rat traps.

 

PEETTAA!!!!!!!

 

Shoot them and problem solved. They will never return.

Or get a dog like mine that likes to " get the kitty "

 

You can't discharge a firearm at n apartment complex.

 

You can if nobody hears it.

 

Pellet and BB rifles don't make fire.

 

Still illegal in most cities.

 

Only if you get caught. You worry too much about the details.

 

Maybe your right but my point is it would be easier to catch them in a live trap, drive them down a back road and blow there furry little heads off. I thought that was obvious in the first post I made but some people are so thick they need it explained with no assumptions.

 

First, I didnt read the entire thread. Just offered a choice.
Second, your first post doesnt even hint to your last thought. Your later post did but not blowing them up. You mention leaving stuff laying around that could hurt a kid. Antifreeze?

Im not thick, I just didnt care about what you said. I gave an option that works just like you. Live with it. Stop trying to be big and mighty on these boards. Seen you do the same thing elsewhere. Its a forum. Have fun. Everyones **** stinks. Even yours.

 

I have personally found a paint ball gun to be effective. Turned up it can even kill them with a rib shot. Head shots have been known to knock a few out too. Of course the misses and paint marking are the problem.

We kill coyotes with a good anti-freeze soaked hot dog. For cats I'd put it up high where dogs cant get at them. Roof/wiper area. Just raw hot dog with 4 small slices in it (more surface area for absorption) soaked for couple days then placed out.

Paprika and chili powder has been effective at keeping them out of sand volley ball pits and flower beds.

Good luck!

 

Yea I would use the paintballs, it leaves evidence. But I also wouldn't kill them. You just want to keep them away from your truck.

My mention of shooting them was to hit them with a bb type gun but not penetrate the hide. Just a good sting to deter them. And my dog chases them but doesn't eat them. LOL They usually find a tree or a fence to get through. I always call her back if she gets too close to catching them. But when they get chased a couple of times by a dog that appears to want to eat them, they stay away, at least for a while.

 

You're correct once again, it is a forum. Don't take it to heart. I never said anything leading to the presumption of being big or mighty. Though my **** may stink, I was merely replying to your suggestion. It's all good, no harm here.

 

If you accidentally drink antifreeze, I am pretty sure you can prevent its lethal toxic effects by drinking ethanol. THere is a physics problem in one of my books that the owners dog accidentally drink Xoz of ethylene glycol, how much Yoz of wine does the dog need to drink to survive? Something about tying up the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase allows the antifreeze time to be filtered out of the blood.

 

Good to know. I hope I don't have to try it. LOL

 

Very cool reply. LOL I agree. Keep it fun, slap each other every now and then for fun, but make sure its all in fun. Keep moving along. No harm here either.

 

You guys are a bunch of pansies. There aren't mobs of little 2yr old kids roaming apartment complexes looking for antifreeze to drink.. Leave a bowl of it under your car and be done with it. Either that or shoot them with a pellet gun when no one is looking.

 

I would be cautious. Harming domestic type animals like cats and dogs is a Misdemeanor charge now and they are trying to up it to a Felony charge if your caught. Unless its something like a dog attacking your livestock or your family, you cant shoot it or kill it.

There was a lady that posted a picture of her dog with duct tape on its mouth because it wouldn't stop barking about 2 months ago. The picture got around, the police found her and she went to jail.

 

I have the same problem....some cat rips the trash bags!!!!

 

Posting a picture of your dog with duct tape on its mouth on FB and shooting a cat with a pellet gun when no one is looking is not the same thing. Don't be a moron and nothing will Happen.
