SouthernGent87 OP 3 point S Joined: Oct 2013 Posts: 106 Limestone Co.	Need advice on how to rid a 1 acre pond of muskrats. The banks are looking like Swiss cheese and falling in. I've tried the electronic deterrents and shot about 4 of them. But the holes keep showing up. Any advice would be appreciated. "Makes sense if you don't think about it..."
