Hey bros, some javelinas have been knocking me and my neighbor's trash cans down and eating all of the trash out of them for some time now, always making a mess of the driveway and I've decided that its time to remove. Now heres my issue: I cant shoot them (they always strike at night, and I dont want to wake the neighbors and possibly get the cops at my door). Any thoughts? I considered a couple options, but I dont know the legality of putting ricin in apples as bait.

I hate to say this, but it looks like your raccoons have autism.

Traps?

Let your neighbors know what you're doing and shoot them.

nextdoor neighbors are animal trainers, dont know how much they would like that

>O no, our trash is being knocked over
>LET'S KILL IT!

>and shoot them
The javelinas, not the neighbors. (Gotta be careful how you word things.)

ive gone through 3 trashcans in the past 6 months, and the garbage constantly get spread all over my front porch.

Javelinas are fucking scum, they are the ATF of the animal world, had them kill over a dozen of my puppers. And this is coming from someone that has a Javelinas on my university diploma.

you could secure the trashcans to avoid being thrown to the ground....
HAHAHAHAhahaahaha yeah right....
Im not familiar with the javelina habbits but i would suggest you put a light over the trashcan and hunt them with bow and arrow. Killing one should be enough to scare away the rest but if it doesnt work rinse and repeat.
Poison is the faggot way out and makes them unsafe to eat. Please tell me you are planning to eat what you kill.

If what I've heard about Javs moving into Arizona, y'all are going to have a problem in a few short years with a short ass hunting season like that. In Texas it's a year round fuck em, at least in the South.

fuck, well might as well try to thin the heard as much as possible.

What about integrally silenced big bore air rifles? Some models offer multiple shots and they're comparable to pistol calibers.

sounds like you got an "anarchist" problem to me opee

OP, this guy has it right (>>32765800). Quick, simple learning curve and its fairly quiet (aside from the horrid pig screaming). Maybe let your neighbors know that you're *super* displeased with the problem though. Maybe.
