    Default I need traps

    I have a problem out here with rabbits. They are eating my car. I need the most vile traps I can get. Snares, decapitators, high voltage, whatever. I don't want to do the live traps, as these ALL need to die. Where can I obtain them? I haven't seen them hanging on walls like a few years ago.
    I do not have any cats or anything around my property, so catching some kid's pet isn't on my radar.

    Probably a little small but a good idea...

    It takes some due diligence, but soon you will notice a difference.

    I can't shoot em fast enough. Generally, they are near the car, so I don't want to risk damage there. I need something that I can set out to eliminate them. If they see me, they're off to the races.
    I got lucky and got one a few days ago, just because I slammed his head between the hood and the cowl.

    Just get some picture wire and start putting out snares...

    Or search "small game snares" and see the dozens of offerings from places like amazon, scheels, etsy, bass pro, cabelas, etc.

    Bass pro and cabelas don't seem to have them in-store. Scheels is a 3hr round trip for me. Amazon doesn't really have them.
    I was hoping someone knew of a local source with them on a shelf. This rabbit did $400 worth of damage in 2 days. He needs gone now.
    Sportsman's might have an option, so going to look there and at Boomgaars today.

    The only legal traps in Colorado are live traps and apples pieces work well as bait. I bought a trap at Big R in Elizabeth a few years ago but Amazon will also sell them.

    You mentioned not having cats, I don't like the little bastards but that could help.

    Are they chewing up electrical wiring or just nesting for the family? I've heard of chemical (Cayan pepper etc.) repellants and sonic deterrents but they have mixed reviews.

    They are chewing wiring to my coils, oil pressure sensor, and cam actuators.
    Tried some of the repellent stuff, no dice.
