I've been losing apples off of my apple trees. I finished an 8 foot fence around the orchard/garden this Spring so didn't think I could blame the deer. I put up a trailcam in one of the trees and caught them in the act.
Now what to I do? I wouldn't be opposed to shooting them, but they seem to be active mostly between 1 am and 3 am, which is past my bedtime. I have a live trap--if I can catch them I could relocate them to some isolated area a few miles away. There's at least two of them. I got a total of 28 pictures over 3 days, with no more than two of them in any one picture, so there may be more. Any other suggestions?
