I have tried trapping them with no luck. The land I have purchased has two ponds about equal size. (1 Acre) One has the drainage issues shown, the other not so much. The one with drainage issues I have tried trapping the CF and the muck swallows half of my trap. So far the only thing Ive caught in them is two baby BG. My neighbor has a similar crayfish issue. He has lost a foot and half of earth on his dam from burrowing crayfish and having their horizontal burrows collapse. HE used to be able to swim in his pond, his ladder is now out of water and the pond is only 6 ft deep. I have walked my property and seems that they are everywhere coming from a near by creek, my neighbor says. He can shoot 20-30 a night with a 22 and a helmet light at night. He claims he has seen some approaching 8 inches long and pinchers big enough to really hurt someone.
How does someone get rid of an infestation? I feel even if I rebuild the dam those things will just come right back.
