well I am not from Ohio
but I don't hunt them this time of yr
due to , welll they have there young this time of yr, and to be honest, just too hot and too many darn bugs that like to take blood off of me


I tend to hunt them in fall and winter olny, spring and summer, I leave them be!!

but I would think if your trying to put a dent in there population, now is teh time to kill them

as taking out the parents could lead to a litter going down
