My boss has a bunch of marmots who are living and digging under the foundation of the barn and outbuildings.  Do you need a small game license to shoot barnyard pests, especially if they are protected?  I believe marmots are protected.  Do they need to be trapped and relocated, or can we shoot them?  I am not going to be able to make it to the next hunter safety course in kittitas because I'll be in mazama, working on my wilderness first responder...

ETA:

Looks like there is no hunting of Marmots.. looks like it falls under the trapping category.  It's not trapping season until November..

You're going to need to call someone...

And if I remember correctly (it's been a while), the wire should be staked down 4 or so feet away (make an L with your arms). Not wraped around the legs.





ETA: Given that the blasting cap isn't even inserted, I guess it doesn't really matter.

How about a bottle of CO2 from the welding supply store, run a hose down the hole (s) 3-5 feet.

Back fill holes.

Turn on CO2 at say 30 cubic feet/ hour.

Pull out hose after 6 hour (approx).

We will disavow any and all knowledge of this, besides they're going to be buried.

Repeat on other holes as nessecary.



CO2 should be cheaper than C25 (25% CO2/ 75% Argon) or straight Argon. They should have differnt weight cylinders of it also. (rental)



ETA:

Car, exhaust pipe, 2" dia hose x lenght in feet, hose clamp,...................... you can see where this might lead?
