Thread: Warning System Land Mines?

    So I got my landmines.


    They're honestly pretty cool. What I did was set them around my garbage cans outside to keep critters out. It works wonders. It's pretty awesome not having to get up in the morning and pick your garbage up off the property.

    And to those of you who were worried about it, they aren't dangerous. They're loud, but there's virtually no risk of being hurt by them.

    So what kind of critters are you scaring away?

    Had my game camera set up on the porch of my cabin, while I was gone....

    Came back a couple of weeks later and had 3 pictures of the porch in moon light....did not see any thing out of the ordinary.
    To this day I wonder what the heck it was.........

    This one time...me and a girlfriend had a house together, and were having fun creating flower beds and such. Kept discovering that overnight some cats (or just one) were tearing things up. Can't figure out why a cat would care to tear up a flower bed. And can't remember now how we figured out it even was a cat versus something else. Was really pissing us off though. Anyway, I got some mousetraps, fixed them such that there was a tack in it with some heavy string to the business-end...so that when it sprung it wouldn't snap all the way down and break a poor critter's leg or foot but just give it a good shock and scolding. The next night we were in bed and twice heard a loud distressed "YMEOW!" from the flower bed area. After that our flower beds were left undisturbed.

    Hunter - you have some pictures of ghosts. But they're just invisible.

    Some things defy logical explanation.....so I don't doubt it.

    Nobody's got a good sex joke about this part? That was a good set up. Would've been a good one.
