we don't really have a hog problem...maybe once a season as they pass through...

and I don't condone it, but if you guys don't think the timber companies are not dumping their oil changes for skidders and such wherever they want, you haven't been in the woods lately

Id say thats wrong too. There was thread somewhere I saw about the old ads telling you to dig a hole and pour your oil in. Read up about it and that was incredibly bad for the local environment.

GOD created hogs so we can eat them.
GOD doesn’t want us torturing any animal, period.

Anyone who takes pleasure or darkens their conscience to be okay with hurting an animal by putting diesel / used oil on the ground will be held accountable someday.

As someone who has had to replace fencing repeatedly because of piney woods rooters, I understand it’s the cost of living with them to enjoy for sausage and chops, not cause them unnecessary pain.

I’m seeing people talking about soaking corn in water then adding yeast.

Sounds like some moonshiners got caught making Liquor and to get out of trouble claimed to be baiting hogs.

IIRC the practice of mixing diesel to corn was to keep deer and livestock from going to the corn used in hog traps and injuring themselves trying to escape.

Old timer I knew said he caught more hogs using fish heads than corn.

And a live rooster to fool the wary big boars. Used cooking oil for your run of the mill 50 pounders.

I tried that once. Buzzards got to it before the hogs.

LSU research presentation I attended showed this as well. The only thing they'll choose over corn is fish, but do you really want to deal with what else rotting fish will bring in.

You can't eradicate them unless you poison them. Baiting them to shoot them does nothing to the population.
