I've been reading up on it now and they have to be captured and euthanized in a humane way.

we have the same probalem with geese up here...crap everywhere. There's an outfit called the geese police that comes around to all the major businesses round here and "gets em up" they fly away, and the police go to the next call...what a racket!
The guy come out with a Scottish Terrier and sends him to the far side of the pond, then he launches a R/C boat, and drives it right towards the geese...the idea being that the geese can't keep an eye on both...So they "Get up" cha ching $$$ gotta love it.

Sort of like when you treat for fire ants and just run them over to your neighbors yard.

Now that is something I miss. Taking people snipe hunting.
Just don't get caught holding the bag.

use to send my kid out in the back yard, hehe, all day he'd snipe hunt with a stick...snipe snipe snipe. It was like what my Mother use to do with us, give us a couple morton salt shakers an tell us if we could put salt on a birds tail, we could keep em...never did catch them damn birds.

All you need to catch these ducks is a piece of bread or a french-fry. It says to bait them in and catch them with a net. My sister said to use a cast net and catch 'em 6 - 8 at a time. Believe me it could be done.

Now I see you got the 12,000 post. As first I thought he was telling you to use a 12 gauge shotgun on the ducks.

Congratulations! gif.004

No Doubt about it...that's your best bet right there...did you see the episode of Northern Lawman...the one where they profiled Gerry "inchworm" Largay? in that episode they caught em the same way, but used explosives to deploy the net...pretty slick, they caught like 20 or so.

My sister's got a live trap and I'll probably just get 'em one at a time. One of the board members is supposed to find out where I can take them.

ATM, once you catch the ducks I guess using exhaust fumes might be the best way to terminate them.

Note valuable lesson I learned in my early teen years. I had 120 chickens I sold the eggs from, which was a great business for me at the time. Unfortunately the hens got older and stopped laying, so my family ended up eating a lot of chicken. We usually wrung their necks, but one time decided to chop their heads off. Unfortunately they do not die instantly when you do that. They kept running without their heads slinging blood everywhere, and of course my mom had white sheets on the clothes line. So my advise would be to wring necks over chopping off heads (although it might make a good you tube video).

I really don't want to do the deed. I'm hoping to take them in someplace where they do it.

Hi everybody. I've been busy so I thought I'd better check in and say hello. I'm doing well (through with radiation treatment and big chemo doses) and now I'm just taking a five day a month heavy dose of chemo every month for a year. Whew! 6 days later and the first one just cleaned me out. Like James Brown, I feel good. I finished my first week back at work successfully. My wife and I are planning a big trip for this 4 day weekend, so I hope to have a new topic with lots of cool mountain pics for you next week. I'll prolly check in with ya'll during the next few days of work. Bird Brain, I wish I could write as well as you.

Deer Hunter, I'll clean out my PMs on that other site.

Peace out.
