I have a trash panda causing chaos, a cooler full of beer, a green light, and nothing but time. What could go wrong?

Medium size live trap and a honey bun. You'll catch it in no time.

I like using marshmallows. With bread or the honey bun mentioned above you are likely to have all manner of animals in your traps. The worst thing you can catch in a live trap is a skunk. I’ve never had anything other than a raccoon take marshmallow.

I like using marshmallows. With bread or the honey bun mentioned above you are likely to have all manner of animals in your traps. The worst thing you can catch in a live trap is a skunk. I’ve never had anything other than a raccoon take marshmallow. Here's how to deal with a skunk in a live-trap. My buddy learned it from an animal control guy, and has done it himself several times without getting perfumed. It's good to leave a cord 10' or so tied to the handle (for use in the last step). Once a skunk is detained, approach trap with a blanket held up in front of you. This is to hide you from the skunk. Be very careful to keep the blanket in contact with the ground. Only a portion of your fingers should be visible as you hold the blanket high. Approach the trap, slowly put the blanket over the trap. It should drape, and insure you are never visible to the skunk. My buddy has set the covered trap on the tailgate of the truck and transported the prisoner without incident. He placed the trap on the ground in an open field. A pull on the cord rolled the trap so the gate opened. I'll leave you to guess what step was taken once the prisoner had cleared the trap.

.22LR right between them black eyes is the best thing for them. My dad would snipe them out his dining room windows as they would attempt to get in his garage. destructive little critters they are.

The only success i had Saturday night was emptying the cooler full of beer. Will be investing in a trap this week. i live inside the city limits so the .22LR is a no go. But i do have my .22 Ruger pellet rifle with some heavy knockdown pellets.
