I talked to my cousin's wife today and she extended me an invitation from her father who is a farmer, to come get rid of some badgers. He wants them gone. Last year he damaged one of his big tractors by hitting a big badger hole. I'm not sure how, but he did. So how would you all go about getting rid of them? I know guys have called them in, but I didn't know if it was on purpose or not. They're not in season I don't think, but since they are doing damage I'm really sure I can get a permit to either trap them or shoot them. Are rabbit sounds okay, or is rodent better? Should I set up within sight of the diggings? Or scout and find travel routes, hunting routes, just like I would for coyotes or anything else? Any help or experiences would help.
Thanks

I forgot to mention, I would really like to help with this problem because it could open up a lot of land for me to hunt. I could probably hunt it now, but this wouldn't look bad. He offered money to kill them, but I think I'll turn that down, and hope to get some long-term access to some good coyote ground.
