What is it about poisoning that initiates revulsion? I don't even care for rat poison and rats are extremely dangerous to health and destructive of property.

My solution a couple of years ago to neighborhood rats was a catch and release plan on Texas rat snakes. Brought 3 females and a male, all over 4 ft, from Kisatchie and turned them loose in my backyard. The rat population has never recovered, but I haven't told my neighbors why.

I guess for swine control you'd need really large reticulated pythons? That might be a bit more solution than folks could stand.

Or you could import a couple of famblies of cajuns. Tell them the rice and cayenne will be supplied. Also better not look when they put kidney beans in their pork chili.
