Hello,
If any pond owners are having problems with muskrats damaging their ponds please drop me a line. I will trap them out in 2-3 days in exchange for the permission to do so. These little varmints can do thousands of dollars in damage to ponds. They burrow back into the banks which will cause the bank and dikes to eventually collapse. They also muddy the water and weaken the ice around the banks. I would be available 11-15 until hard freeze up. Any arrangements would be strictly handshake agreements with the understanding that all of the rats may not be removed and you are not responsible for anything that may befall me and that I will not damage your property. If this sounds of benefit to you drop me a line.
