Re: Airsoft (bb) Gun Allowed in Upper Merion?
Build a Trebuchet and bait the throwing arm. When he gets in the basket pull the cord and admire your fine work.
No really I believe gander mountain sell live traps. Pythons advise sounds solid.

Re: Airsoft (bb) Gun Allowed in Upper Merion?
I'll take your word for the BBs it since I don't know much about hunting, and I don't really feel like stirring up sh*t with my neighbors or the cops over a couple groundhogs. I agree completely BTW that they were not quoting actual laws. They were telling me what they would be willing to give me sh*t about if they were informed. We are way off the main road, but I wouldn't put it past my neighbors to snitch. If there were no law against it, it would be easier to tell my neighbors off.
As for claw traps, that's a bit difficult. We have a cat who roams around outside and a few other neighboring cats who stroll through. I would hate to risk their safety over a rodent. I've attempted to use those Havahart junk traps, but they are completely useless when there are fresh veggies ten feet from the trap.
An exterminator might be my best option. I suppose I can find another type of snare I could set up near the garden. Too bad a .177 with a ballistic tip won't kill em'

Re: Airsoft (bb) Gun Allowed in Upper Merion?
A pellet from a 1000fps gun to the skull might kill a groundhog. I'd have to experiment. It might also not penetrate the skull and just knock them out, or knock them silly. Not a big fan of either. A body shot with that pellet will not have good results.
As for leg hold traps, they are barbaric and really shouldn't exist. We had a family cat caught in a leg hold for days in the dead of winter one year until he finally managed to pull it up and drag it home. Dirtbag who set it didn't bother to check his traps.
I was talking about this: http://www.havahart.com/store/live-animal-traps/1079It has to start someplace... It has to start sometime...

Check for local discharge ordinance. Load up .22lr Rifle. Profit.
