asisis Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Anyone know of someone who can trap these critters who are demolishing our garden ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideSky Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Could be tlacuache / possums which are a protected species - no trapping, killing, moving OR maybe coatimundis (not sure if they are protected) Perhaps talk to one of the local wildlife rescues to get ideas of deterrents. Vern & Lori Geiger operate Fauna Silvestre lakeside but I don't have their number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisbee Gal Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 @asisis You may want to try a different approach. In the US we had varmint problems and we used Dried Blood (aka Blood Meal) around the garden's border and it worked quite well. Plus it added nitrogen to the soil. I don't know if they carry that here, but check with the nurseries and the garden shops for recommendations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen White Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 I just bought a trap and, when they become a problem, trap them and take them up the hill for release. Cat food in the trap works every time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
