She lost me 9 seconds in when she said "anyone that's trying to take care of prairie dogs should try to relocate them first." When i "take care of" prairie dogs, usually I relocate their limbs all over the field or hillside where I'm shooting.

When we were doing cleanup work after the floods last year, Biulder made us move our staging area due to it being a pdog habitat. They claimed our trucks were killing them...none of us saw a problem with that but then again it is Boulder after all.
I understand the Rodenator may be loud and rattle the window. I also understand that she lives in city of Boulder, and other side of the fence is County of Boulder.
I would not like the noise of explosion, but I WOULD LOVE the fact that there are less probability of Prairie Dog settling up at my back yard.
She is another case of the idiots who don't pay attention to their surroundings when they purchase a home.
oh I'm sorry, you moved into a house near a shooting range. WTF do you think was going to happen.
oh I'm sorry you moved into a condo by the airport. Yes, those planes make noise and you got the cheapest place you could find because it is right below the final approach fix.
We had that here years ago in our housing area.
We are surrounded on three sides by Parker. Some dimwit bought a house with "open space" in the back.
Turns out the open space is not deeded as such and was open to development. Derp. FWIW, Our house DOES back into county deeded open space.
Said dimwit, her mom, and another dimwit LAWYER (no offense to lawyers on this board) petitioned to be annexed into Parker after they got wind of an incoming builder so they would have a say as to what would be done with the development. Parker didn't really want us as the extra cost to support Police, plowing, etc. would outweigh the property tax mill and extra retail taxes they could possibly milk us for. We fought that BS for as long as possible and when Parker was finally forced to conduct a special ballot measure, it got shot down something like 340 against 18 for.
In the end, the economy tanked and the builder pulled out, I assume partly to delays.
Thanks to the dimwits, it cost the city probably $25k to run the vote, cost the NO people time in court, etc. and probably cost the city more in lost (retail) tax revenue.

I vote for a live trap.
Then, when you have quite a few of them in captivity, you can eliminate them by running them all over at once with your lawn mower. Or maybe put them all in a burlap sack and swing it against a tree like a baseball bat. Or maybe drown them one at a time in a bucket of water. Or maybe use them for ammo in some kind of potato gun and shoot them at some solid object. Or bury them in the ground with their heads sticking out and use a pitching wedge for a little golf practice.
Or you could just post an ad on the Boulder Craigslist and see if anyone wants to adopt the cute little critters.
Dump a bunch of dry ice into every hole and suffocate them.
Catch them live and sell them to Buckaroo.........I can retire!
The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

Most municipalities have ordinances against even shooting pellet rifles, but it is OK in some as long as the pellet doesn't leave your property.
