Preparing for the blast

Never tried it on purpose. If it really is effective, it would seem to be an otherwise environmentally friendly way to control them. My curiosity is piqued.


Careful you are not violating a pile of game laws.
The problem is keeping the other critters out.
 
I bought some bad corn last week. The farmer told me it wouldn't hurt a deer or cow but would kill a pig. I'm a little worried about the turkeys but not at all for the hogs. Some of the corn had roots and was moldy. I never noticed that some of the corn was bad till his auger got jammed up.

Actually it isn't they fall under the Federal Migratory Bird Act.
This is one of these SSS situations.
Clay pigeons are migratory?
Well I guess your right since they are in the Dove family. :lol2:

Being an avid trap shooter in my younger days. Trap got its name from trapping pigeons for events.
The favorite was the Passenger Pigeon, there demise lead to the breeding of Clay's

I heard of a fellow that used them and said it worked that and a buck and half will get you a cup of coffee
Mixed them with corn soaked in diesel and buried it where they had been rooting,
I would think you would have to bait them in for awhile like trapping. It doesn't seem to me be an effective
way as no one knows the dose and there is no way to tell if one or more are taking the bait.

I would check with with the local game officials as again the only approved methods in Texas is shooting or trapping.
Every Beef Forage Workshop I attend put on by TAMU devotes time to feral hog eradication and allowable methods.
