    It appears your place is open enough for Helo's to be effective. That is by far the fastest and best means of reducing hog #'s

      Till a poison is approved, there really isn't a solution. A pen will keep them out of your feeder area, but you will still have them.

      I'm averaging killing 10 a month on 110 acres, and can't tell I have made a dent yet. I know it has to help, but really have my questions as to how much...

          Ask around and see if anyone in the area is running a BoarBuster trap. You can probably pay somebody to run their trap on your place for a month or so. I am running one in east texas and it is the best option I have found for catching multiple pigs. I have caught 26 in two weeks. 12 in one drop. You do need cell service at location.

            Luckily my neighbor has a deal with a helicopter hog hunt operation, they bring in Helos a few times per year and regularly wipe out 80-100 hogs in a morning. Nothing else compares to this.

            I can tell from Covert pics from 350 miles away when he has had the choppers there.

              Put hog panels around your feeders and kill everyone you see. There's pretty much no way to control them as long as your feeding them. Cut off the feed and build pens
              I'm sure the state is working on an eradication plan when pigs fly.

                  Check with your local TPW biologist and see if your county has a gov trapper. The biologist should be able to help you with the paperwork to get the state helicopter to run your place. I think the state does kills twice a year here. It does take some time to get the paperwork through all the channels before they fly your place.
                  I just attended a MLD coop meeting where they gave a report on the last TPW fly they killed several hundred hogs and about 50 yotes.

                    Call Ted nugent and tell him to bring his chopper. He will wipe them out fast

                      10 16’ hog panels did the trick for me

                        Maybe work with your neighbors to enlist a local trapper.
                        Someone that can trap several places in the area.

                        Turn off the feeder. BTW. I only had one pig break into a pen. Panel was inside the fence post at that spot. Huge sow pushed under and crawled out. Photos and bent panel told the story

                        At least you have admitted you have a problem. First step to recovery.

                          Hog panels. You could hold a big get together hog hunt. I am sure plenty of TBHer's would be more then happy to come help with the problem. Also I think the companies that run helicopter hunts are normally happy to bring hunters via helicopter.

                              You guys seriously need to join Texas Hog Hunters Association on the book of faces. So many people would be offering to trap and/or kill these hogs in a heart beat!
