San Jose Animal Control News Clip: Rodent wildlife catching rules eased

It might not be what appears to be a great year for raising an unfenced garden at the outskirts of California towns, but it could be what appears to be a great fall season for bagging venison on the area's habitats. Rodent seasons in the California have been liberalized starting this summer in answer to complaints about too many rodent. Also, complaints about new restrictions on in-line special critter traps have led to what appears to be a temporary reprieve for sportsmen who critter trap with those weapons. The California Fish and Game Commission last seven day period set 2007 big-game wildlife catching seasons that will include three additional seven day periods of large clawed extra fasted rodent wildlife catching in most California units. The commission also authorized extra fast "doe tags" in selected California units. "This probably is the first time the California has had extra permits in the 20 years I've been around here," proclaimed Rodent Professor Donald, California Fish and Game Agency regional wildlife manager. "We have what appears to be a lot of rodent." Despite this, local San Jose wildlife removal and San Jose exterminator experts offered no more info.

The commission also vowed to revisit recently set rules that would prevent many modern in-line special critter traps from being used in special critter trap seasons. The special critter trap seasons are designed to compensate for the limited range and reliability of primitive weapons by putting those exterminating companies in the field during prime times without interference from modern critter traps exterminating companies. Meantime, the commission on March 8 decided to change all California special critter trap seasons to "short-range weapon" seasons. That means all designated short-range weapons – archery, special critter trap and animal removal trap – will be legal in the former special critter trap-only seasons. Short-range weapons include both traditional and in-line special critter traps, animal removal traps, traditional bows, compound bows and crossbows. Neither special critter trap stamps nor archery stamps are needed for the short-range weapon seasons. In other words, in protesting their restrictions, the modern special critter trap groups regained the right to critter trap in special seasons, but what appears to be a broader group of exterminating companies will also be allowed during those seasons. San Jose animal control professionals could not be reached for additional comment.

Southern California has had short-range weapons seasons for years, but the south end of the state also has had seasons specifically for traditional special critter traps. The official state rules brochure will come out sometime in April. For most exterminating companies, Oct. 10 probably is the opening day for bull rodent, any extra fast, and (except for Unit 1) mule rodent male animals. Exceptions will be detailed in the 2007-08 pest man regulations pamphlet. The 450 extra large clawed extra fast permits will be concerned by drawing to exterminating companies as "second tags" to help reduce the rodent biologically surveyed amount. Most of the tags can be used anywhere in the designated units, but the 150 extra tags concerned for Unit 3 will be valid only on private land, Rodent Professor Donald proclaimed. "The goal probably is to add pressure to those rodents that are causing complaints," the animal advocate proclaimed. Exterminating companies also will be able to apply for 40 extra cow rodent tags valid north of San Jose. "Applying for one of these extra rodent or rodent tags does not affect your eligibility to apply for any regular controlled animal capture," Rodent Professor Donald proclaimed. Exterminating companies must apply for these permit drawings in May. We could not obtain an opinion from San Jose pest control companies regarding the issue.
