Ok, so the problem started with one wild ass feral cat. It took up residence around our house and apparently spawned three more satan cats. The three left which was good, but the damn main one won't. Then it popped out two more, those two are still around and the main cat has since popped out three more. So now there are six of these annoying bastards around.
They have already bit/scratched two people at random (they are wild as hell), scratched up the cars, killing all the birds/squirrels, and have now tore a big hole in the insulation around the HVAC duct work under the house. There is no "leash law" out in the county, so the "pound" won't do anything about them.
So I'm looking for options to get rid of these annoying ass pest. I thought about just shooting them, but I only have a 30-06, which would make a big ass mess and noise (live in a neighborhood, so I don't see this going well). Thought about poisoning, but not sure what would do the trick quick/humanely and is readily available. Also thought about setting up a snare type trap where they are getting under the house. Any other creative ideas?
