cci quiets are only what I use. Sounds like a cap gun out of my Browning lever action with 22" barrel. Barrel length it's the key to keeping the sound down and not having your neighbors spaz out. Or borrow a suppressed PCP air rifle. I wiped out an entire family of raccoons twice using both. I wouldn't let any dog get tangled up with a pack of raccoons.

You can buy a recurve bow for like $100-150, and break no laws, and make less noise.

Really? I thought you needed a hunting license to hunt anything.

Purchased online 4 bricks last week. Waited years for them to come back online. That will last me a life time. Hopefully more will be available.

Mind sharing where you got them from?

Appears the Super Colibri is still being made. It's just super hard to find in stock.

I just got a couple bricks of super colibri from outdoorlimited.com last week

Where I live, the discharge of firearms is not prohibited.

But I do have neighbors, and am a considerate kind of guy. Super Colibri out of my old single shot Winchester rifle is literally, 'Click...' followed by the sound of whatever the bullet hits.

So, if shooting at targets on a backboard, it is, 'Click...thwap'.

A couple of days ago, I dispatched a varmint in my front yard. It sounded like, 'Click...flop flop...'

I bought a brick a few years ago from sgammo. I guess I need to start looking for more.

Thanks for that, I just ordered some more.

Many cities put pellet rifles in the same category as firearms. When I lived in a bigger city with a house on an acre, I bought a stoeger X20S .177 to handle the pests. It's rated as one of the best in class for noise reduction. I shot several skunks and raccoons with it. I never shot them in the body, only the head and it was always lights out, no noise.

I moved to a house on 21 acres and now, we don't even have skunks, raccoons or possums around here. I still use the pellet rifle for varmints if they're in a spot with a less than ideal background. The .177 will stop if it hits a small bush, the .22 will not.

You can eat anything, with enough hot sauce!

Buy or rent a live trap. (Home Depot) (Amazon) Trap them, then dispatch them - any way you want. I've caught cats, skunks, raccoons, and squirrels. My current live traps aren't big enough for raccoons. A buddy borrowed my larger traps and it fell out of his truck and it was destroyed. It was a Havahart we got from a pest controller who was selling his old traps and replacing with new ones.

Make sure the Trash Panda doesn't look like this or you'll be hosed.

I am soft in my old age. Unless its a skunk, I trap and release in a nice park a few miles away.

I was doing that (no parks here, but taking them a few miles away) but they got wise to the traps.

The dogs are not effective in running them off long-term. It limits the options.

Just trap them, much easier that way. Buy a Have-a-heart brand trap, much more effective. Then shoot them or drowned them in a trash can. Don't release them, ask any wildlife biologist or F&G warden, they will tell you the same.

That's exactly what I've been doing.... with all those damn neighborhood kids.
