There's an outfit in Lamar, CO, IIRC, that has a 'suction truck', looks like some kind of repurposed city maintenance vehicle, and they'll come to your place and suck the prairie dogs out of their holes. It's the dangest thing to observe; Buckley ANGB in Aurora CO where I was stationed in the '90s would bring them in every year. They plug up all the holes but two, stick the hose in one, and turn the vacuum on. It is evident to the casual observer when one is traversing the conduit...
