    With a Gamo, you don't need that.
    My Gamo sounds like a 22 LR. You need a suppressor on a 22 with subsonic ammo. I took a few out with this but the wife wasn't happy. So I trapped them.

    Are you shooting their high-performance rounds through it? I don't use those as they are too fast and loud. Get some heavier .22 pellets that don't move as fast and you should be good to go.

    Kill them, but don't waste them!

    These sound no louder than a hearty clap of the hands. And up to 30 yards can be accurate as hell.

    not entirely true, d con is wafferin, it has a low rate for secondary poisoning, which is why you can buy it at wal mart.
    However the dangers of non target pests would be true. Also I don't know how well it would work, most rat poison is flavored for rats with a fish type oil, don't know how squirrels would react to it.

    Not sure where you got your information, but many studies have shown toxicity caused by secondary ingestion warfarin.

    I bought some CCI Quiet .22 rounds today . I'm going to use them for the Armadillo problem . High velocity stuff out of my CZ 452 is a little too loud at 2 am .
