We put up traps. Bait them with good old Purina Hog Bait. Rasberry cool aid poured over corn or corn dipped in raspberry jam or this hog bait raspberry gook. Works well. Like I said we killed an average of one a day for two months. Sometimes you get a column of them. Shoot the tail end pig first then work up the line. This is somewhat effective until the pigs figure it out. My friend Al had to use his Glock on one that charged him. 250 pounder with serious tusks. Going out next week again. Not so much fun but it saves the ground nesting fowl and snakes. There are two endangered cactus varieties where I hunt. They are fenced off and protected.
