I live in town where I can't just shoot them when I want...however, that does not keep me from getting rid of them.
I have a small Hav-A-Hart trap. I catch critters then it does directly into a rubbermaid container full of water....critter in a zip-lok baggy and out in the trash they go.
I don't use an open trap setup...I keep one side closed, then set the trap with a PB cracker in the back under the closed door. They don't exit the trap alive.
I have a heart alright...hahaha
