Hello,
Has anyone been able to convince a dump/transfer station to do pesting. Check out video below looks like a blast.

Taking a 9 mm to them seem,,,,,,, BIG
In news here lately as rats are becoming even more of a problem, a pester using AG have shot 15.000 in 10 months, one place about 1200 in 2 nights ( and that's not full work day nights but more like 3-4 hours every night )
Thats something like 3 rats a minute.
I would like to get into something like that, but that is way coo complicated here with a HUGE nanny state,,,,, that actually taken upon itself to deal with things like rats,,, but fail that too.

No,seriously. We used .22 mag shotshells in the crawl spaces! Most would run off if they didn't get a head shot at close(10ft or less).
I could have used a AEA double back then

Rats at a garbage facility are considered pests? If they shouldn't be there, where exactly should they be?

I'll try to keep everybody posted I'll try to call a few transfer stations in Massachusetts or maybe new hampshire. Probably better luck in New Hampshire than Massachusetts since Massachusetts is an extremely anti-gun state.

Try walking down the street with a pizza in DC. Rats the size of raccoons will follow you no matter where you go. Just stay in the light......

My God, that's brilliant!! How far down will it spot them? I assume it's only while they are stopped to build up heat?
I gave up and bought a bunch of scissor traps. Yard is like a mine field.

i was asking IF it might work . Answers i got were that you might see a heat blob if it was a good unit ie: $$$$ . I got the impression i would need a $1200 to 2K unit ? I have 6 stab type 4 prong units but never got one yet .

I only got one with those prong units, and that was after I dug the mole out. The scissor units are the best thing I've found.

When I was a kid back in the 60's every town had a town dump. My buddies and I spent many hours shooting rats at the dumps with 22's. It was a common activity and no one ever seemed to care.

Ya, back when you lived in a free America .. same here it was a place along with the clay pit you could go shoot just to go shoot you bothered no one and no one bothered you.
Kinda like how your removed from being on or using " public" property . Lol you pay tax for it but your not allowed to use it.
