Why? Trapping is generally less disturbing to the property and Much more effective.



I told him trapping was the only way to really put a dent in them, but he seems set on learning the hard way, and I get to kill pigs.

n these temps they will move in daytime but for the most part they understand the safety of dense woods and darkness. Place feeders with timers near the edges of deep woods and rooting areas. Make clean head shots and try to disturb the area as little as possible. Game cameras are helpful in targeting their movements.



This is where I'm lacking knowledge. When is the best time to set the feeder? I baited for a few days in a row and they seemed very content to just wait til after dark.

bait 20 min before sunrise and 1 hour before sunset. set the feeder for the lowest setting possible once they find it.


another option is the pig pipe and hunt them at night with lights.
