Safe to hunt rabbits yet?

One reason to wait till its gotten below zero is the rabbits carry lice. After the first couple of freezes the lice die off.

this is my biggest thing. The cold kills the bugs off of them. I was thinking the fact that its been below 30 every night in the mountains is pretty good, but just not sure.

I'm waiting til nov but that's just cause that's when we go. I say get one and inspect it with gloves. The lice are not hard to spot if there alive. Good luck.

I usually wait until after the first hard freeze. and usually takes a couple freezes to get the bugs off.
