So, anyone got any good recipes?

Ha! Those little *******s jacked up half of my corn seedlings today& I
*just* ordered a new scope for the pellet gun because I need more
magnification as I get older, to plink them from a distance& then came
here& read your post.

I am glad I an not the only one they annoy. The neighbors cat was
keeping the numbers down for years but died a couple of years ago& they
really multiplied recently.

Might I suggest getting more cats?

I would, but they don't last very long. The Coyote population also has
gone up rapidly in the last few years. They only last 2-4 months on
average then don't come home anymore...

Then what you need are fewer cats.

The coyotes will have no problem scarfing down free range chipmunks.
But why would they, when there are plenty of fat, corn-fed felines to dine
on.
