I use box traps to control the pigs.  When my Amish neighbor bought the farm and started raising sweet corn and cantaloupes , I reduced the population by about 20 every year for three years as they were feasting on his new tender plants.   His 6yo son watched me for a couple years and he now does the trapping.


Like a live trap, or a snap your back trap?  I am afraid the cats might get into a kill trap.

I only use live traps so I can release unharmed.

Cantaloupe  has a strong scent and works well for pigs.
