Unfortunately that link won't work for many because of the crudely implemented pay-wall (no I am not going to subscribe to your little newspaper to read one article...).


The top search result here will get you to the same article...

"linier" *??? *What is it more liney than? *I guess they don't pay
much for newspaper editing these days...

Not pretty, but it looks effective.


Craig


The many attempts to accommodate the protected beasts on the airfield
in the grassy areas have failed, since they ended up digging up both
the access road and runway. *(A couple of years ago at Region 9 there,
a prairie dog popped his head up in the middle of the runway ahead of
me as I started my take-off run.) *The damage to the runways and other
infrastructure has led to the latest attempts to keep them out. *We
shall see!


I'm afraid the Rodenator and other gas or explosive-based means are
not permitted to be used on protected species. *That would have been
my choice too!


Mike


Is there a "grassy knoll" near the grassy areas?


I always find a .22 caliber lead injector works well....
