TRAPPER DAVE
I've been "on the hunt" lately
and, I must say, with some degree
of success! I have captured 5 skunks
over the past month. How do you
capture a skunk you may ask?
Carefully. You set a trap, place the
bait inside, then cover the trap. The
cover keeps the animal calm and
the trap prevents the skunk from
raising its tail to be able to spray!!!
Now, however, there is a new
concern. I have a mouse. The
trap won't work on mice. So I
set out to find, rather than build, a
better mouse trap. I found several
at a local market but they all
work on the same principal. A
sticky surface on a small pad
can literally trap the mouse in
his, or her path! But...what do you
do with a rodent trapped on a sticky
pad? I wasn't very impressed
and elected to go with a old fashion
trap that will dispatch the mouse
very quickly! Hope to get rid of
it by the time you read this! Hope
you're mouse and skunk free and
that all your NEWS is good!
