Reminds me of shooting rats in the corn crib with the Sheridan when I was a kid.
 
I have the Ratzapper 2000.
I think it is best because it works while I sleep.
Not against air rifle elimination, just too lazy.
 
So much fun...

Been shooting rats for farmers for 30 years. It is a lot of fun and I don't charge them for it. Never hit any of their animals in the process. Every year a couple of them butcher a cow for me and give me the meat. One dairy farm I still do I shot over 50,000 rats when I first started taking care of their problem, it was bad. I also take care of the pigeons that land during the day as well. I use a suppressed 22 and night vision. It is a lot of fun to say the least, that is until one crawls up your pants leg.
 
Met a guy once who does air rifle pest control for grocery stores. Corporate hired him to come in and eliminate some birds living in the grocery store I night managed. Dude was an awesome shot. Made great money too. I believe the invoice was $5K.

Reminds me of a farmer out in the Harquahala Valley who grows melons (honeydews, cantaloupes, watermelons) on about 4 square miles of land. I got invited out there to dove hunt back in the 90's. Clouds of doves!! All of God's creatures would come out of the surrounding desert to gorge themselves on this succulent bounty the farmer seemed to be growing just for them. He had a group of migrant farmhands who's sole purpose and job was to cruise around the perimeter in a pickup truck with shotguns and blast anything that moved. Rabbits, skunks, squirrels, pigeons, doves,...anything trying to cross the road to get to the melon patches was sentenced to death. He bought 12ga. shotgun shells by the pallet for these guys. He had a whole rack of about a dozen H&R Topper single-shots in the tractor barn.
