Any thoughts or actual projects used to deter pigs from rooting up dams on ponds? We would still like to be able to keep it mowed if possible. It’s an ongoing issue every year. I try to shoot and trap what we can but you know how that goes. Thanks in advance.

Eradication would be the only option I can think of..... -
Kill the food source living in/on the dam, probably grubs and other bugs. Not sure what the right treatment/chemical or method is being you probably don’t want it leeching into the water.Comment

fence itComment

Fence it or you can lay cattle panels or field net wire down all across the dam. That would put a pretty good end to it.Comment

Can you lay hog / cattle panel on the ground or bury it just a little? The could still root but not much.Comment

That was my first thought as well, but then I saw where he still wanted to be able to mow the grass and that put a kink in my plan.Originally posted by 88 Bound View PostComment

I am doing some digging. I have a friend back home that manages golf courses and they use something to keep hogs off the greens that works pretty well but I can not remember what it is.Comment

Merit insecticide is what they were using on the golf course.Comment
