Dig a small hole, and put a 4X4 piece of plywood flat on the ground at the far edge of your property. All the desert rattlesnakes will want to live under it. They’ll stay away from the house.

The easiest way to get rid of the geese is to stop mowing grass in a narrow perimeter around the lake. If the geese don’t have a clear line of sight to spot predators, they leave.

I’ve done this for years with a quarter acre pond. I bale hay in the surrounding field. Around the pond, I cut nothing. I’ve had geese come in at dusk. Come morning they scoot.

They are smart dogs, they never forget, good treatment or bad. How could they not feed their dog? Best of luck with the new pup, be careful about having 2 males in the house. We are going through that now, BIG fights. they are both neutered now and we still have an occasional fight.

Take care of two problems at once... send them all to the starving people in Haiti. Bill and Bush can release the first few into a crowd at Port-A-Prince.

Western civilization now insists on murdering the successful, feeding the failures, and putting humans in second place to bugs, fish, and flowers.


INDEED.

That will change . . . after Armageddon.

Until then, buckle seatbelts

This is well beyond an “E Ticket ride.”

That was a great episode and I saw it when it was first shown. It was hysterical then and still is a classic.

Killing is something a mean right winger would do. Euthanizing is something a kind and gentle liberal would do.

That's about the size of it.

They’re planning to do that stupidity here in NYS spending thousands of taxpayer dollars and not using the geese as dog food. Instead they want to bury it all in expensive landfills! I say extend the hunting season and, oh,

ROLL BACK THE STUPID DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION’S WETLAND “LAWS.”

Wetland MANIA is what has led to an overpopulation of the birds in the first place. Every puddle in NYS is declared an official “protected” wetland, just another gov’t land grab!
