AHPOA,
There have been wild pigs and yard damage recently around Lake Avalon. The nuisance pigs show up after dark and literally plow up entire sections of the yard in search of grubs, worms, etc.. Even though these are categorized as feral pigs – the FWC, and Orange County will not take any action. So once again, we the homeowners, have to fend for ourselves. We have hired (and paid) a trapping company (Trapline) to come out to our address to help get rid of them. They claim for 2 weeks they will run dogs in our area, followed by setting traps to help capture the pests. The pigs are mainly active is during the night, so that is when the trappers will be running the dogs, so don’t be surprised if you hear them.
These pigs are VERY destructive - they rooted up a 20’ X 80’ area in less than 1 night, basically removing all of the recently installed (within 1 year) St. Augustine. They have also rooted up an area along the lakeshore along the entire SW corner of the lake.
We could use help from all of our neighbors and the neighborhood to help get these under control.
Sincerely,
Jeff and Wendi
2813 Williams Rd.
