Nuisance Trapping.

[Mike]

We have a skunk problem in my suburban neighborhood if any body is interested in trapping them.

Ever been bitten by one?

Those bandits are like that blonde at the end of the bar. Looks sweet enough, but you are going to pay dearly when she turns on you...

Nope. I stay outside the catch circle. I had to release a fox from a snare once and man let me tell you that thing was on speed.

My suggestion is sniping them from 50+ yards, head shots only.....22 works fine

Nope they’ll spray everywhere….. Try to find a good position to hit them just after of the shoulders. Hit that spine and they won’t spray….

They make nice hats! Since COVID they smell different, not better, well maybe a little better, but certainly different!

When we had it our daughter sent us a care package, which included Vicks Vaporub. I opened it and could smell the petroleum jelly perfectly! But not a hint of the rest of it...

Skunk tails, especially the really white ones, are up in price. Apparently, Jewish culture values them for making hats (according to my BIL). Could be a lucrative little endeavor.

For stealth I use Louis Slugger for Dem Motha Fuggers. ️

I normally aim for right behind the ear .... no spray yet.

What both of those shots are doing is taking out the spinal cord. ... that's the key, no electrical impulse = no spray

Whereas a frontal brain shot still allows for spinal cord impulse

Good price on a great little trapping sidearm! I’ve got one just like it, but with the regular style grip.

Rumor has it my middle daughter killed her first ever animal yesterday with her first ever trigger pull. She's the true empath in the family, so I was surprised when she asked to do the deed. Turns out, she's protective of the turkeys

Sterling Fur is on Frick Road in Sterling (south of Medina-ish).

There’s also Molnar Outdoors up further to the north, Avon/Lorain area.

 

[jagermeister]

Fin has a very limited selection. Go to Sterling or Molnar.

@Hedgelj Doug, what are you looking for? My uncle is looking to offload a bunch of trapping gear....

 

[jagermeister]

Mmmmm… beaver.
