Rodent problem

If you trap nuisence , animals, best to not release them. Where they will cause troubles for others. At our place we have a steady stream of stray cats, most are eliminated. old243

Interesting. I take it you're rural so noise isn't an issue. Do you use traps?
pm if you prefer.

Cheers

Edit: I just looked back and saw your earlier post.

Have a trap up with some food and a camera close by incase it decides to by pass the trap at least we can hopefully get a picture. As well we are rural enough if we catch anything nothing the 22 or 22-250 won't be able to handle and we won't get any complaints

Possums definitely in the Quite area(Belleville). Numerous on the road dead. Ottawa cant be far behind.

I agree there, they seem to be following the ticks, which follows climate change, but the last 2 winters have been cold and this winter has been cold and long, so we shall see what happens with the ticks.

Guys need to realize that these are tick eating machines, ideally let them be, just keep them out of your barns but they can be a benefit.

There's possums in Ontario. No need to argue it. Just because you haven't seen them doesn't mean they aren't here. Just saw my first last year.

They are also egg eating machines too. Bad news for turkey and grouse. Non native so no need for 'em here.
