I see no good reason to let them live after what they have done to my property.

One chewed a hole through the side of my garage after it got trapped inside.
One chewed the rubber off three tires on my push mower
One chewed the headlight and directional light wiring off my Chevy
One chewed the fuel injection wires and the distributer cap wires off my wife's Dodge
Several ate all the roots to almost all of my Yuccas this year.

I've used the "Swimming Pool" method for years, but I never get them all.
Has anyone tried one of those fake owls? I don't imagine it would eliminate them, but maybe it would attract real owls and they would do a much better job of it.
