    What did you use for bait and close to a feeder? I will let you use the gamo, snipe them.

    I tried in shell peanuts, bird seed, fruit, some stuff from the place where I got the trap. No feeders.

    I used my .22 and have gotten about half of them.

    Kill them all, if they had thumbs they would be wearing your pelt to stay warm in the winter.

    The last barn cat Jack, was moved to another farm. He was pretty worthless and needy. The chipmunks keep the dogs stimulated. The dogs don't have the room to roam here like they did at the ranch.

    I should have done it this morning. I am fishing a little no wake inlet. Good sized and the bigger fish were blowing up the top water about 30 to 40 yds from shore. I'll try it out today or tomorrow. I got a 5 inch Zara spook I'd like to try out. They have some big stripers in here as well.

    If you have ants in the yard, this will kill them too. But that might be better sprayed out of a sprayer. I use the IT version. 1/3 oz to a gallon. Kills ants for 2-3 months.

    Don't use it on flowers that are blooming

    Best things today. A great couple of hours in the garden. Having baby bunnies running every where, baby wood chuck dashing through the rye and all my plants are growing great! Then getting to the new blind and getting the second roof cover on and mostly secured. Absolutely pleased with new design and how it looks. Home for lunch ,so many veggies and lemon water .lost 5#'s and reduced joint inflammation/ pain.

    I made a mistake. The IT version is good to fog with but the XTS version lasts longer on the ants. About a month longer than the IT.

    Sorry about that.
