[BFix] OT- Wildlife removal/Identification

[Dan Davis]

Call a professional.  Maybe the Dept of Wildlife or fish and game would trap
and relocate them seeings as how they are wild animals.  The only other
thing I could suggest is watching  the den until they all leave, then
blocking it off.  If it's covered and they can't get in, they will probably
mosey down the road looking for new digs.
