    Default Damn rabbits

    Hey guys
    I suddenly am having episodes of rabbits chewing on hoses under the hood of my truck. Anyone have any home remedies for this? (And yes the pellet rifle has come out) .

    Low hanging hoses?
    Or, could it be the squirrels?

    We have rabbits all over the place here. Never knew they were car-nivorous.
    Math is tough. Let's go shopping!

    This has been an ongoing problem at long term parking at DIA.

    Foxes and coyotes are pretty effective. Trapping and fencing would be my second layer. Third would be baited hunting spots. Feral cats are very effective but they also will do a number on any local bird population.

    Doesn't have to be low hoses. I have found them laying on top of the motor on some of our cars.

    They can be out in my field all they want, but up near the house, they get the Glock.

    I've seen them inside vehicles where they are sitting on top of the motor when you open the hood.

    no squirrels out here where I live. and yeah I actually opened the hood a few days ago and there mr bunny was sitting on top of the engine. Since all the bobcats and coyotes seem to have left over the last few years, the rabbit population is exploding (go figure lol)

    Want me to make the 15 minute drive and come over with the PVS14 and the AR? Haha

    Bonus points if you live in the same neighborhood as my manager.
