My issue is with Erithizon dorsatum. The little #%^(^$+'s chew up my hemlocks, killing them as well as crap in my barn. I am told they also chew on tractor tires. They nest in an abandoned house next door which is filled with quills and feces. Wife thinks they are cute and refuses to let me "remedy" the situation. Fortunately, we are not yet living at that woodlot site so when she is not there, there may be an accidental episode of "acute copper-jacketed lead poisoning" occurring.

We have a fur missile as well but quill extraction in the middle of the night is not my idea of excitement. LOL.

They also seem to like rubber brake lines and hydraulic lines. Copper jacked pills work well to remedy the situation. Lead slug .22's also work, and are generally quieter than their big brothers.
