squirrels in pecans - 07/07/13 08:29 PM
hey guys, i have a neighbor that is infested with squirrels that
have taken over the pecan orchard. yeah, i know that will happen.
but he has not gotten more than one 5 gallon bucket of nuts in the
last 2 years, but the trees were full with green hulls. so we know
the nuts WERE there. we are trying to catch them with 110 conis,
but so far not much luck. we took a nut and drilled a hole in it
and put that on the trigger. catch a few, but not many that way.
also hunt the place a lot, but with a 10 squirrel limit, we are
barely putting a dent in them.
is there a trick out there that will help us thin them down a bit?
know that if anyone has dealt with this, someone here has.
please help me help him.
thanks
