I'm trying to save what I have, not kick off an entire fish kill while getting rid of the ankle breakers. I'm honestly scared when my dogs take off running around the ponds....



I would be tempted to try catching some first with either a Gee Crawfish Trap (they look too big for a minnow trap opening to me) or the bacon on a string trick. Might as well see if you can have a nice crawfish boil before you whack them! smile If water temps are cold, they may not be active and just sitting in their burrows so trapping might not work until spring.

I haven't bought any lately, but you used to be able to buy boric acid at a drugstore pretty cheap.
