Terminator triggers or anything that is stainless...I know some guys that will take stick welder rods, bust the coating off and use those.

Some traps, like Belisles, just change the trigger as soon as you buy them.

I made a form several years where it lists the legalese stuff at the top then I just had a table below so I can have 20 landowners listed on one piece of paper. Course now, we can do just about everything electronically and it counts.

I’ve never carried out more than one deer at a time!! I did carry out a nice fork horn buck and two beaver one time. Only a little over 1/4 mile but I never want to do that again.

It won't work for kids, you'll still need fencing to contain kids if it's near residential or agriculture.

When I was growing up space was just one of those government can only do that (go into space) things. When private companies started using their capital muscle to do go to space I thought wow that is pretty cool.
One night I was standing in my driveway and watched the train of Starlink satellites go overhead. That struck me as a really cool thing, I looked at that string of satellites go over me and thought wow a human being built that.

First time I rode in a Tesla I was impressed with its simplicity. Just a big screen, simple controls, and even the outside design was pretty good too. Man was that thing FAST. I could see all kinds of potential with that. I know the news was all about a fire here, or other issues. But geez what major auto manufacturer hasn’t undergone a serious recall, or had historical mechanical or crash issues, you could list the other car makers all day long if you look back through history and their problems. I thought well here is a guy trying something new and it’s like the Apple Watch, or iPod, or a cell phone, or first laptop, A whole laundry list of other inventions we all take for granted as normal today but at one time were new and cutting edge. Remember when no households had a personal computer at all? Or a cell phone? I see teslas all the time now. But at one time they were unique and turned a head when they drove by.
Capitalism is the greatest thing in the world. It’s fun to watch the technology space grow today by leaps and bounds. We may (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) and moan about our country”s issues. But at least each us has the freedom to own something, buy something, work for ourselves, and maybe invent something too. Go Elon. He’s not perfect, nobody is, but way to go pushing the envelope and taking things to new levels.

J...funny you mentioned that.....I must of had a large ,or multiple colonies one spring that was eating the Terro but was still coming back for days, usually they're gone in a day....So I called Terro's hotline...they swore the formula hasn't ever been changed and just give it time....The ants finally stopped and I haven't had a problem like that again....

Yep, I steer clear of any of the salts these days. Too hard on equipment no matter how much I protected them, and there are much better freeze proof options available.

You can order them up to 6 feet long, and almost 3/4 inch thick from Home Depot. However, you can only order them at certain times of the year. I ordered 100 stakes that are 6 foot long to Alaska. Free ship to store!

They list many sizes and lengths to pick from.

Yep root systems are unreal. 3 year old tree I dug. Sold a few hundred this spring. Dug most with the bobcat but this one I dug by hand just to see what the roots were doing. These ones love the sand.
