We can have 1, 2, or 3 on camera randomly and at any given time here. At night, they're safe. Daytime? They get the same treatment as groundhogs and become landfill out back. They're just too capable and too destructive...
Yeah, here they seem to travel in packs, like a gang, 3 or 4 at a time and in waves....won't see 'em for weeks then all of a sudden we got 'em several nights in a row. They climb the chain-link in the dog run like it was a ladder for their personal use.....doesn't slow 'em one bit.
I wouldn't care but we have to make sure our little ankle-biters aren't out there at that time to lose an eyeball or worse.
Had a visitor last night at 3:58am . Appears to have a gimp front right leg/paw
But the worst thing is when he stood up just enough on the steps, he sets off the perimeter alarm 18" from my noggin , so we had to go through the whole drill*...
