I live in sugarland. In the last 3 weeks, I've had random acts of violence committed against my lawn. It looks like Joey Dorsey took a hoe to the lawn and dug it up. After research, analysis and thinking -- including looking at the damn tracks like Daniel Boone -- I concluded it's feral hogs. Big fat ones at that, b'c it takes a fair amount of strength to do what they've done. Anyone deal with this before?
I deal with them in my neighborhood every so often, but I am probably more rural than you are. A pack of those things will destroy all your landscaping in a matter of minutes.
nope. small dillo can't do this much damage. Neighbors have confirmed hog citings near our cul de sac. Estimate over 100 pounds. big fuggers.
Any thoughts on how to deal with them? Fortunately, I'm pretty sure it's one or two. Or they've only taken a passing fancy to my lawn (ignoring all the lawns right next to me). I"m not sure who else they're terrorizing.
There isn't much you can to do deter them so I would hire someone to trap them or, call your HOA and see if they will act. I wouldn't recommend trying to confront them yourself. They can be pretty ferocious. BTW, I hear feral hogs are good eating.
Go stand outside in your front lawn with a shot gun and repeat after the fans in this video: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/p5Fy_BHtv0Y&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/p5Fy_BHtv0Y&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
