Animal Farm
 
I feel like in a beach community I shouldn't feel like I'm living on a farm, should I buy more sun tan lotion, in case peta reads this.

FYI, Not sure if you live in MA or not, but it’s illegal to relocate groundhogs raccoons and possums in Massachusetts. I don’t really care either way, but all it takes is one Karen and it could cost you.

Good to know. So you can spend several hundred to hire someone to do the same and he can relocate them, no thanks been down thst road once before for a female racoon that found her way into our attic to have her litter. Nightmare

My wife said she seen a rat under our one story deck….

Removed the bird feeder dropping feed under the deck,,, chased the chickens into the next state that’s been eating that feed,, removed the pellet riddled squirrel from under the staircase,,, set traps,,, spread enough rat poison around to kill an elephant…

happy wife, happy life …. :smash:

Been hear for years, always feed the birds until the grackles show up, but this spring on seeing rats under a feeder below a tree its hung on, they came down earlier. First year we have seen them, so they must be expanding their range.

If you hire someone they likely will just euthanize it, a groundhog in these parts is around 250 bucks.

They actually bait them when a product they call “groundhog cocaine.”

They can’t relocate them either, they can can take them and euthanize them to get rid of them or release them on your property (I.e. remove them from shed, basement, house)

I would just get a good pellet rifle and take care of them yourself
