Rabbit problem #868815
Asked May 16, 2024, 10:55 PM EDT
Overrun with rabbits. 4 babies were born in my backyard a few weeks ago. Have vegetable garden to start fenced but they get in and front yard with perennials not fenced. Do live traps work. I’ve tried repellent sprays, pellets, high pitch motion detectors. What to do?

As far as using live traps, refer to the Nuisance Wildlife Laws in Colorado. You can find the state rules for trapping live animals.
