In Reply to: Getting rid of wild hogs posted by rrlund on October 08, 2014 at 18:06:39:

I don't know if the guy is telling the truth or not but:

Septic guy came out to pump the tanks. Charges $350 for a 20 mile one way trip 750 gallons of septic and half an hours work for himself and son. Seems enough to cover expenses and leave a couple hundred for the days profit......lots of time to goof off with just one customer for the day....don't know how many he has per day.

Anyway, while waiting for the pumpout he asked me about Feral Hogs around my place. Little small talk and he said that he traps them and sells them to meat packers. He said when you go to the grocery store and buy that pork sausage guess where they get the pork.

He went on to say that one of his customers put him onto trapping. Said he had about 300 hogs he was running for a living and all the EPA rules and all just ran him out of business. So he said the guy just turned his hogs loose and let them breed with the wild ones and that was that.

Food for thought.

Guys around here hunt them and some trap them. Those guys pen them up, corn them out and eat them. Personally I'd wonder about disease course you are supposed to cook pork to 160F at least. But for me by the time you get a "Baby Back" rib to 160F internal temp, you are looking at a piece of charcoal.

Neighbor up the road has them come up his creek and shoots them but I haven't seen any. I do have a box of 00 for them when they decide to invade.

What I know about it.

Mark
