Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The title of this book understates what it provides. It is about much more than deer -- rats, voles, woodchucks, and many other animals are covered. Usually when I research a problem varmint, I find either natural history (animal habit info) or pest control information. I rarely find the two integrated together as they are in this book. I own an Audubon Society book on mammals, which is good to understand how they live in the wild, but not so good when figuring out my control options. Usually I bypass deer control books (nothing new under the sun) but this book - containing so much more info - caught my eye.
Neil Soderstrom provides facts and insights for understanding the history and habits of the animal one is dealing with, and provides control and management options for real-world situations.
I think highly enough of this book that I gave it as a gift to a wildlife control professional I know.
It is a thorough effort and well worth owning. It is not a superficial treatment that you can pick up in a quick scan while standing in a book store -- much more effort and substance has gone into this book. I heard Soderstrom speak and clearly he was completely immersed in understanding his subject matter. I do recommend this book.
