I catch the pests in live traps and transport them at east 6 miles from my property. Then I open the trap after they were in there all night they are plenty aggressive (Read: Pissed off in human terms) but do run away and usually up the closest tree. The 6 mile rule is a must or they will find their way back.
I catch the pests in live traps and transport them >>> i Think the state game people don’t like doing that in PA.

Funny, I do the same thing—six miles.
‘Hope we’re not in the same area...
I tried that on two separate occasions with feral cats. Both found their way back within 5 days.
I live in suburbia where coons outnumber those in the wilds. If I trap them, I shoot them.....Same with possums....
Same with squirrels, I've shot over 50 in my back yard in the past 11 months already, and they just keep coming.
