My yard has been a no fly zone for better part of three years.
Bait'n em by sprinkling McDonald's in the back yard won't even get bit anymore.
Subsonic 22's from inside the house, make the dead Indians fear the juju that emanates from my kitchen and bathroom window. Wonder what the legend is on double dead Indians?
........Foxpro's FX3 crow call is almost cheating when MickyD's aint handy dandy.
Squirrels will eat French fries too. Proven fact......but just once.
Nice!
I only need to kill a few crows per year and they stay away, so it isn't wanton killing, just one every few months. Crows eat chicken food and spread West Nile virus, plus they pick on small chickens, etc. Starlings die when I get a chance. Predation control is an issue on a farm. Everything else lives.
SG, Sunday Money is correct, the .17 HMR is a necked down, and has a sharp report. Hopefully though, 90 days after the end of this session when suppressors are not only legal to own, but also to use use, so I'll spend some more money on a few tax stamps and go quieter on future kills.
I do miss the days of predator control on the farms I hunted ducks on. Starlings on the way to the cow barns with a shotgun. Barn pigeons by the 100's, and the occassional crow with my Webley Patriot .22 pellet gun.
