Not sure if i am a fan off this, we do need to rid the hogs tho

Hopefully this KAPUT kills them within hours cause i couldnt imagine killing a hog then cleaning it putting it in a black iron pot and it just ate poison. Imagine what the woods will smell like with dead hogs decaying all over the place, be like riding through the spillway after the morganza locks were opened with all the dead wildlife everywhere. Talk about ranked

Another good idea I heard was to create something that would sterilize them and prevent future breeding, but like the bait, it doesn't work if they don't eat it.

It has the same active ingredient as blood thinners people take, warfarin. It takes a few days to kill a hog, but as soon as it gets in the bloodstream, it turns the fatty layers blue. If you don't want to eat an infected one, it will be obvious as soon as you start to skin it that it has eaten the bait. I am still researching details but I don't think it would be much of a risk to eat one with small amounts in their system.
According to the Texas Ag Commissioner years of testing prove that other wildlife, or pets, “would have to ingest extremely large quantities over the course of several days” to get sick.
