Iguana Hunting in South Florida using Brocock's PCP Air Rifle: 22 cal Concept Lite
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- Iguana Solutions is a woman owned wildlife removal company in South Florida that focuses on invasive Iguanas. We take the jobs that other companies will not because iguanas are a special kind of trouble...
We follow all laws and regulations and self report to local police when using an air rifle. We do not recommend that others attempt to duplicate what we do. Check with FWC and all applicable laws before attempting wildlife removal. We are also insured for what we do, so we are unable to allow random people to tag along for liability reasons.
We put down all of our iguanas using the air rifle, even when caught live. Relocating iguanas or keeping them as pets in Florida are both illegal. There are no native iguanas in Florida.
Iguanas dig under sidewalks, seawalls, and structural foundations. Iguanas eat tens of thousands of dollars in landscaping, sometimes at single properties. Iguanas poop constantly- and it can rival a Great Dane patty! Iguanas often times invade peoples homes, through attics, duct work, and periodically they come up toilets!
Iguana Solutions is called to the places we are at, which is why we are not harassed usually. We have 7+ safety precautions relating to shooting in public. Do not try this at home....do watch this at home.

Jessica: Just happen to stumble on to your videos. Impressive! You remind me of a girl I knew in high school back in the day. She was a junior, I was a senior. She approached me one day because she had heard that I often eradicated woodchucks for the local farmers on the weekends. She wanted to join me. She had a Mossberg 144LS .22 scoped target rifle. To my surprise she was deadly accurate up to 100 yards. Her demeanor was just like you! I graduated and soon after was drafted and went to VN for a while. Lost touch with her and when I returned home she had graduated and her family moved away. Never heard from her again. Anyway, that's some fantastic shooting there girl!
That's what you call a happy homeowner!! Jessica hits her targets!!
What a fun way to make a living! You're an awesome shot with that rifle, also very professional. The sniper videos are my favorite, super happy I found this channel! Keep the videos coming please:)
Iguana Solutions is a well thought out business doing a good service for people and I enjoy watching their growing success led by a attractive, energetic and formaly educated wildlife professional that is genuinely concerned for the environment and taking an active role in preventing the situation from getting completely out of control. When I was a teenager in WA State my neighbors had a blueberry and rasberry ranch that was literally being destroyed by black starlings another invasive species. They knew that I was an airgun enthusiast and asked me if I could help so I became the Sherrif of the Berry Ranch through much of the 1970's. One neighbor broke out an older Crossman CO2 22 cal rifle that was her Son's and gave it to me and I became very profecciant with it. Open sights any Starling 50 yards or less was dog meat and with a fresh 12 gram CO2 in calm clear conditions that light weight old gun could reach out to 100 feet which it had to because unlike iguanas the starlings got spooked at my presence so the shots got longer. The Ranch owner paid for all of my ammo and it was my passion at age 13 I had not much else that I enjoyed more and like iguanas starlings pooped all down the side of homes, out buildings, cars and even killed trees when they burrowed into it nesting then the tree would unexpectedly fall. They carry lice and to top off why farmers hate them is they don't just eat fruit they take one bite on this berry, cherry whatever and another never finishing any one piece they destroy far more than they eat. Then another neighbor with cherry trees asked me to help them out but it was just me alone and I was loosing the battle. My older Brother helped by suggesting that I secure mouse traps under the trees and bushes with string to catch the starlings temporalily until I could shoot them all. I added a Crossman 7 shot revolver and and rifle in .177 Cal not as powerful still CO2 but quicker to reload the magazine on the rifle was much like in the high end air guns like yours except it had to be manually rotate it each shot plus re-cock the air. This new combo worked very well instead of six birds in a few hours of hunting now I had a pile of starlings in an hour of less! As time went on the berry ranch owner passed the ranch closed other new neighbors complained the next thing I was in the Marines and I shot expert because of my self thought airgun experience. I saw one episode where you were using sticky traps indoors and wondered if they'd work in some areas where there's so many iguanas that you'd catch just them and not a cat or some other critter? I'd absolutely love to have a nice rifle like yours and to be in sunny Florida blasting them iguanas but at age 63 they'd be hard for me to see in the trees. The traps could be baited it wouldn't take long to catch them and a lookout could keep watch until it was time to get them iguanas! Just an idea you are a smart young Lady doing a great job! Tom
Having used an FX Impact for several years, I'm amazed at how you are so accurate from a standing position and having to judge windage, range and inclination ... you have a gift!
Thank you ❤Thats so nice!❤
@@iguanaSnipers You are so welcome ... you've earned it!
It is nice you explained the dialed in distance of your weapon, compared to distance of the shot. Great shooting.
And the additional information about nature really makes the program.
I can't imagine anything more fun. And there seems to be an endless supply of targets
Jesse Oakley and sandman strike again , and that slick hand move was priceless on the AC iguana 🦎 good job Girl
Excellent shots, great fun,beautiful smiles !! We so admire air rifles can be freely used here !!
Annie Oakley lives...
Love you Jessica!...I live in Missouri and I had no idea about the invasion of iguanas...keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for watching!!!
Jessica the Smiling Assassin.
Thumbs up to the assistant "Spotter".But those shots in the 1st part were raaaaaad
Awesome video, Jessica! Great shooting! Cool to include the info about the rainbow eucalyptus tree. Btw, I think you would enjoy shooting the newer "tequila sunrise" XR(side cocking lever, much nicer than the bolt action) version of the Brocock airgun you are using. AoA has them on sale. Keep up the great work!
Yes! I love the new orange colors! But im about to get the side lever(XR) Commander ....or the Sniper....I am having alot of trouble deciding
The Commander is gonna feel much more similar to what ur shooting now, and give u more shots per air fill. The Sniper is gonna be more solid, but will feel quite a bit more "bulky".
Honestly, the Concept lite was made more for how ur using it(rugged, lite, accurate; u just need to upgrade to the XR side lever cocking version) than the others, but I know the allure of a new gun. Lol The BIGGEST thing you will notice and be happiest about on any of them, is the new XR side lever cocking. Sooooo much easier/effortless to cock the gun than the bolt action u have on ur current gun.
You can't really go wrong with any of them. All excellent airguns. And AoA is so great to deal with. They go above and beyond to make the customer happy.
Good luck on ur choice
Amazing to watch. And the client is so glad to have the help, gotcha iguana
Thank you for removing these Iguanas. Was born and raised in South Florida and seeing the iguanas everytime I go down to visit in Boa Raton and Boynton I see them it's crazy and out of hand
Thanks for the info on the Rainbow gum tree! Just a Beautiful and unique tree 😃
So glad yall like it as much as I do! I nearly forgot to throw the truck in park when I saw it!❤🌳❤
great shooting, and I love the camera angle as you climb the ladder!!!
Jess loves her job and she's Damn good at it! Keep dropping those iguanas!!!
Your funny “it’s pretty cold out 50’s”.
If you ever get any money from RUclips you should consider getting one of those scopes you can attached a GoPro to so we can see exactly see what you are seeing.
That is an excellent idea!
You guys make pest control really entertaining! Plus ,you are a damn good shot Jess (all off hand and as steady as a rock).
Steady as a church!
Brave Girl be careful when climbing roof tops
YOU are a heck of a shot!! Incredible! Great fun videos. Didn't know how bad iguanas are in Florida I live in "God's Country, Southern New Mexico.
Thanks! We appreciate you tuning in!
Future million subscriber channel. Real life content. Bonus Jessica is easy on the eyes
❤thank you❤
Used to watch night scope kills on coyote. Then rats. Now this. After a while it all blurs in another kill
We need more of you and Iguana Man in South Florida.
These are nicely-done videos. Thanks for work!
Thanks for watching. We have more to come!
This isn't about shooting Iguanas....this is about JESSICA shooting Iguanas....BIG DIFFERENCE.
Let em know🙌 😂
100% correct😀
Mr Sandman, bring us a dream. Jessica is bringin' the sand to those varmints.
You do the work of two good men.
Jessica’s shooting has really improved. I’m surprised whenever she misses.
Very talented shooter, it takes lots of practice to shoot like that. Great job. Keep the videos coming. I'm a fan.
hello from VA , Jessica you are awesome the real sandwoman! the big one on the peak of that tile roof was epic. I liked when you explained how to adjust your shot for shorter distance. I am still learning that for my self. I dont have iguanas here but i love popping squirrels with my gamo maxxim .22 that are very tasty nuisance. Florida looks beautiful. love your videos.
Thanks so much for watching!
I love to watch you work, some great standing shooting on display, as always, I don't know if everyone knows how hard that is to do as you have nothing to help support or steady the rifle. Those Iguanas are also some tough animals, there are not a lot of animals that can take a shot to the head and not only survive but also be standing and ready for action after. It really shows how good a shot you are that almost all of your Iguanas go down after one shot. You hit them with such precision that normally they are only shot again to knock the dead body down, that often times it is just one of their sharp claws or a wedged tail that has stopped them from falling.
Of the people posting shooting Iguana videos in Florida you are the best I have found, Iguana man and ninja are a close second but I haven't seen them be as active as you are, climbing buildings and trees to get after those critters.
I would like to see you try some different types and weights of pellets out, If you get some Iguanas that are not going to be used as food and are only going to be dumped get together with Raj and use the heads to try out different pellets/rifles (I think he has a Gamo but some of his friends have other brands too) to see which do the most damage or have least pass through, it would mean that they would at least be of some use and could make shooting other Iguanas even more humane (not that you are not humane, I have never seen you cause cruelty to any of the animals you cull) but you could use the information to help other people who might be using the wrong pellets or guns to try to take Iguanas out, I remember one vid I watched and it looked like the dead Iguana had been shot before by someone with a steel bb gun in the past which just injured the Iguana.
Thanks again for having some extra knowledge in the vid too, the rainbow tree looked like it had been painted with poster paints, I really like learning new things like that. Take care and stay safe.
I'm giving you a tip on walking on those Tile Roofs. Walk on them where they end on the over laps two at a time. You will balance easier and break less tiles. I used to install those roofs for a living back in the day.
I named my gun Nyquil!
💤 I LOVE it 💤
Great, great NAME!!!
$1300 base price weapon. she ain't fooling around! Fun to watch, reminds me of growing up on the bayou outside of Baton Rouge, with my Benjamin pump!
I used to live on College Drive! Geaux Tigers
@@iguanaSnipers Geaux Tigers '69. Keep shooting!!
That wasn't Skole in your pocket, that was ammo!!!!
It more than likely was a tin of pellets.
Really liking this channel. Not many pest control channels with a woman as the main shooter.
You are one heck of a sniper.
07:54 NICE freekin shot Jess.
I saw another in the right side up in the tree. I'm hearing a LOT of hammer bounce. Needs tuning!
KnifeMaker
I know they are a little harder to find and a little more expensive but id try the jsb hades pellets, the fx hybrid slugs, or predator polymags they have great expansion even at lower speeds and reduce pass through. The hades and hybrid slugs are great for all ranges short to long but the polymags are excellent for short to medium (50yard max)
Nice marksmanship, Ms. Sandman! That wind was a booger, huh?
Need to make you an adjustable wye stick for those long shots. Great hunting.
Like the Covenant 5 and 7 scopes too from Basspro/ Cabela's. Nice clear glass AND a zero stop feature, for a realistic price. (Still can't bring myself to spend the cash on a Nightforce or something on my firearms, or my air stuff. Just getting into AIR , lotsa fun.....I'm in S Fla. also, (a little North of you) Iguanas look like fun. Redhead Agamas used to plague us at my place of biz.....(used to.)
Air rifle are not considered to be proper firearms federally and in most States, but local ordinances may directly or indirectly restrict their use. So you viewers must check before you hunt for iguanas! They are also dangerous and all the firearms safety rules still apply.
Air rifles also give a great degree of control over velocity and weight of the projectile, which allows for an expert (such as the one seen here) to manipulate the air rifle like a master violinist plays a violin. She might make it look easy, but this is NOT plinking at tin cans with a BB gun. She is a master at work, using master techniques and master equipment to produce master results _every day_ .
You can take the girl out of Louisana, but can't take the cajun out the girl. A captivating smile and deadly aim...Are you not entertained?
You are a very capable and talented shot there lady! Shooting off-hand is not easy to do well let alone shoot baby iguanas' heads! Well done, I am a fan!
Wow great shot!!!!
🙌Thanks🙌
She is an awesome shot, between Jessica and you those invasive Iguanas and other animals don't stand a chance. Thank you for having such nice people on your channel, it is always nice to watch you guys in action.
You and Jess are the bomb! Dual meaning - also the 'bomb' to iguanas. . . ;)
Are those premier domed or premier hollow points?
Your little dance to sandman made me smile. Thanks for the great content. Your a beast sniper, lol
7:55 that fall looked really painfull
You know they are a major pest when there's nobody biching.
The lady who was following with the iPad really seemed to be getting into the Iguana removal. Way to go Jessica, I'm sure she will be sharing clips with her Facebook friends like crazy.
Yes she is a favorite❤ We got a big boy for her once before
Just found your channel and love it. I love to shoot pcp's also. Have a Airforce talon in 22 and a Hatsun in 25 cal. You're an excellent offhand shooter and damn good looking to. Your husband is very lucky. Enjoy watching.
Iguanas is a full time job lol
Keep up the great work !
Chistmas and everything. Yall just dont know
Annie Oakley, tree ninja ,you are one brave girl and a wicked shot !!!,keep the videos coming they’re awesome 😎
Sniper is the perfect name for you, no shot to far or challenging.
I've been shooting air rifles for 40 years. You are a pretty amazing shot young lady!
Thanks!!!🦎🔫
a weapon is most efficient in the hands of a master and you you are a master Great shooting Very impressed
Thanks!❤🦎❤
Top notch marksmanship 👍
its around 8 o,clock in the morning here in the Netherlands enjoying your video,s
10:05 beautiful tree, i saw a lot of them also while in Barcelona
I love the "sandman" by the camera man!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!
Omg merch department! Please make gold badges that say iguana patrol
you are really a great shot with that air rifle. I would always want my shooting sticks with me, but you just do it freehand. Good show.
This girl is no JOKE. She is a amazing shooter. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I am here just to watch you drop the pest. On the pest issue I.got my first mosquito sighting here in SC today.
How you hit a target swaying in the wind is beyond me. When I ate first noticed the impression the round tin in your back pocket, I laughed and imagined it to be snuff rather than pellets. It reminded me of an old southern saying, Bruten Snuff and not half as dusty. I liked your customers enthusiasm for your shooting and work ethic. Was the red add on to your rifle barrel a silencer or to let the police know your rifle is an airgun (you may have already answered that question)? Hey, I liked those Tarzan moves going up into the trees. That ladder you guys use is not light and I imagine you guys are really tired at the end of the day, especially jumping around the area the way you do. I appreciated your camera man’s commentary on how tough iguanas can be to kill, “they can eat pellets”.
Lol He is the best! And yes the red is a silencer. I painted part of my gun for police but it is starting to wear off. Im looking into a custom Gunwrap... Thanks so much for watching and letting us know what you like🦎🔫❤
If you can't find the Crosman Hollow points try the Benjamin Hunting pellet. One would think they would be the same pellet, just different packaging but my air rifle prefers the Benji pellets. Also, here's another vote for the Predator Polymag. It's my go to pellet now and has taken a bunch of squirrels.
Walmart sells the Crosman hollow points 500 ct. tin cheap
at 8 min mark, if the shot doesn't kill ya the fall will. That was a badass drop!!!!♦♦♦♣♣♣♣♠♠♠
Excellent job love your videos
Good shooting action, is that the same kind of gum tree that the kookaburra sits on ?😁
Omg is that chaw in her back pocket!? She’s the real deal.
Hey Jess!
gosh, she’s the cat’s pajamas!
13:00 I'm surprised the lady didn't ask you to shoot the darn parrot!
Your man has a nice voice!
Yes and more than that😉😃
Love your laugh after you shot that 1st big one off the roof
Had to let him know who won🙌
Just saw your lovely face on the Iguana Man channel?!?!! Didn't know you've been starring in these videos for so long!
Been gettin guanas😉
Great shooting. Would love to see some scope cam footage.
I need time for funds 🤗
Great shooting…beautiful scenery….awesome video!!
👍👍👍👊😎
I have a buddy in Dade County that’s constantly shooting those things and Muscovy ducks that get into his back yard pool area. It never ends with those things.
Yes! Both are a HUGE problem down here!
Mr Sandman, bring me a dream...
Pardon my ignorance but how can you walk around quiet neighbourhoods with what looks like an assault rifle without the police showing up?
Jessica jeans are as nice as super great iguana shots 😊
Brocock back in action! Great video! Pom pom pom... ;)
their is no body of water here in the midwest that is that clear farmers farm to the waters edge
You are an awesome shot , this is an awesome channel and now I've got the song stuck in my head :-)
that tree looks like it has camo great video see you on the next one
Yes like rainbow camo! The tree really sticks out!
Awesome shooting, seriously nice work! I thought you were still using Crosman pellets. H&N pellets shoot well, that Baracuda Extreme will put a hurtin' on 'em for sure. Try some Hades, a little bit softer and open up even with lower power. The Hades or Predator Polymags are the most devastating pellets, slugs are fine but too pricey.
I use both but thanks for the guidance!
@@iguanaSnipers I guess you know what's on the market for your gun by now, didn't know you'd tried them. Not trying to tell you what to use, just know from being into airguns for a while what works well hunting, Iguanas are obviously tough to take down, maybe thinking out loud of what I'd try. Good stuff, keep knocking 'em out.
Sleepy time for Guana
Wish I had something like that to hunt in my neighborhood. Very good shooting and it makes me feel great that the neighbors are not in opposition to your hunting. Glad you represent what our second amendment is about. Firearms are tools to use to get the job done.
Really nice shooting. How many times can you shoot at say full power before it needs more air and do you use the scuba tank setup to refill?
Yes I have a scuba setup to refill. I rarely shoot on full power till im empty. I would guess 20 shots before air was unpredictable - my gun is unregulated. Im really unsure on this though
Ill say it again. Shooting dragons is the best. Good videos.
Really impressive free standing shooting
Beautiful tree...Good luck.
Quick question:have you ever thought about using bait to draw them in... I see pesters use it for other pest ?
You doing great job with those reptiles
You remind me of Sandy Cheeks on SpongeBob Square Pants....🤣
Lol I can see that😜🙌
Jessica really looks goo with her hair down and in that rose colored top.
Great shooting as always! What was the name of the bush you climbed up in to pull that big boy out?
