B686 Posted September 8, 2024 Report Share Posted September 8, 2024 Can someone tell me what this is? I’m guessing it’s for insects or small rodents seen them before. But quite a few have appeared where I walk my dog and sometimes shoot at the back of where I live. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
