It’s a pain but I would move them. Pretty soon the traps might not be there when you get there. Cages are spendy to replace. If someone is already breaking the law theft isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

What a POS loser.  It would be too bad if he stuck his arm in a set and for some reason, a 330 Conibear snapped shut on his worthless arm.

if it’s during rec season, not sure you’d need a wco. You should be able to trap legally right now

You can trap for them but not charge for services unless you are a WCO.
If I need a permit and education to buy a firearm than women should need a permit and education  before getting an abortion.

:yeah: All a WCO permit does is allow you to charge for trapping services. Even during the off season if you have a friend who needs problem wildlife (furbearers and unclassified wildlife) trapped, you can do it, just not charge.

This is the exact quote

“ It is unlawful to trap nuisance wildlife on the property of another for a fee or other consideration without a current and valid WCO certification (WAC 232-36-065)”

Not even considering any kind of payment or accepting donation other than keeping what is caught, cats or what ever else is captured and having the ability to trap on his
entire fenced property, which abutts WDFW and not have to worry about  people walking trap line.
