Destructive garden rodent

(1/1)

Wrightwood:
This fairytale pumpkin plant was doing great with plenty of large leaves. In 2 days it was nearly stripped clean. I put out a trail cam and a few hours knew who the culprit was. Now to catch the destructive rodent!

 Rugged Ranch Products SQRTO Squirrelinator Trap without Basin.

Will catch a dozen overnight.  You can relocate or_______.  Can also use Havahart live trap as well.

After adding a chicken wire cage they still got to the pumpkin leaves. Looks like there's a pair of them. 1 down ;)

Caught in the act!

We've got the ground squirrels bad this year as well.  We have had beautiful tulips and daffodils every spring for years, never had an issue.  This year every single bulb got dug up.  They started to eat away at our garden and our grape vines.  Enough is enough.  We have the Havaheart trap going.  Catching these little buggers non stop.  We've been relocating them down big pines hwy.
