[QUOTE="Up Y'oars, post: 183915, member: 764"] As said before, get them early or deal with them extensively. More than likely they are procreating in the meantime and you'll end up with multitudes. I try to get them early by cleaning out the hole and smoke bomb them to asphyxiate them before (do so when the dirt is moist so the gas remains below and doesn't permeate the grass line) they have tons of tunnels and escape routes. I think I got one bastage just this week with a single smoke stick. You can learn to understand their digging techniques and where their entrance hole is without making too much of a fuss/dig. I use a garden tool to scrape away. Poison food works, too. I utilize an electric fence rod to prod where I think the tunnel is coming from another mound. I can easily feel the tunnel when going down just a couple inches. I then widen the hole the rod opens and drop in some poison food, then pinch the opening up with some of the dirt mound. He/she will come back sooner or later to munch. Yes, they are a varmint that can piss a land owner off! :mad: [/QUOTE]
