I have a youtube channel where you can see many of these in realtime, but I have created a section within the site as more of a airgun (EDgun Leshiy and friends of course) Pest Control / Hunting video series. The one consistent thing is the ATN X-Sight 4K Pro 3-14x on top. To keep things small (especially on the EDgun Leshiy) I pair the scope with the Streamlight TLR-1 IR. For details on the rest of the kit, see my Favorite Products page
As you read and watch the series, here's a quick visual of my pesting field. There are 1,000's of squirrels and other critters... largely due to the number of old oak trees and ZERO hunting pressure of an urban environment. While my goal is total extinction of the rats and chipmunks... I'm cool with everything else back here... some squirrels are ok, raccoons, opossums, foxes, and whatever else passes through. Oh wait, I forgot about skunks. They need to go too!

They need to go too! I've been smelling them, but other than the 6 I got in early spring/late winter... they have been smart enough to stay clear.
Vol 2 of the backyard pesting series with the EDgun Leshiy (and sometimes her siblings... EDgun Matador R5M and EDgun Veles) picks up right where we left off in Vol 1.
I've shoot over 50 rats, and this one was definitely the biggest!
Next up was it's relative Mr chipmunk... the numbers are down, but they are still everywhere!
This squirrel did it's best olympic acrobatic routine...
Here's some slow motion rats! I've been getting a ton of baby ones like this... I finally got momma too!
Here's another night vision ratting session (apologies for the volume control on this one... made be jump ;) )
wrapping up Vol 2 is a nice slow motion tree rat!
