2 years ago my nephew and me waged war on the nutters getting into his roof.we eliminated well over 100 roof damaging pests
a daisy 880 was the tool of choice it has enough power to dispatch them at 20 yards.
well it was pretty slow around there for the last 1-3/4 years.nothing left to dispatch. a few days ago we was standing in the back yard when we saw about 5 nutters run into a newly made hole in the roof i said looks like a party going on in there.a couple days later i got a call saying that about 10 was counted coming out of the same hole and it is time to wage war.
this isnt a good time because all my guns are down except the daisy 880 that has been sitting for over a year and a half without any use and a daisy 856 that leaks when left sitting.the 856 will shoot over 600fps 10 pumps if shot as soon as its pumped.
i left some beeman crow mags and said i'll be over to help you dispatch all the party goers :o ;D
many unexpected delays occured then yesterday my nephew called and said i got some come over there is about 30 running around here.i stopped what i was doing and to see what he was talking about.when i got there he said these are the first 2 shots i took.
then they scattered.
heres the first one taken aound 15 yards about 8 yards up.it wouldnt sit still and my nephew really wanted to get it so he took the shot while it was on the move.both taken with the daisy 880 and beeman crow mags 8.8gr

this one was the second shot it was stationary and about 20yards out and 8 yards up also.these shots made me happy because usually my nephew only took body shots because he feared missing.with firearms and the daisy 880 he has been shooting right on spot so his confidence let him go for headshots finally.those crowmags sure do some damage.everything was mush under the skin of this nutter

Good job on the pests!

Should have covered the hole so no more would have gone in it. Need to cover it when the nutters are killed so no more go in. Good shots and kill em all.

yeah if i could get up there and do it myself it would get done right
someone else wants to be the one to do it and he doesnt do a good job on anything but a mans home is his castle as they say so he has the final say.this time, once we rid the roof of raiders, i'll see to it he does a good job this time ;)
3 more down but no pics i wasnt there and now the trophies have fed the feral cats around there.
if we would have kept up with the pest control the problem wouldnt have started again but these furry fiends didnt come around until the last couple months and i really dont come around to offen.i get to go home twice a week and i have so mych to do when i get home its hard to get control.
these ravenous beasts almost hit my 1 year old nephew in the head. we have an apple tree behind the house.he was outside playing when a couple of nutters decided to drop big apples down almost hitting him in the head >:(.hard apples, soft head cant be a good mix
so i waged war on the apple wasters and got 3 in about 10 minutes
i have an orion camera mount for my scope hopefully i can get some footage for the hunting gate.nothing better than recorded live action right ;) ;D
