Or....if you'd care to take a more "active" approach, you can grab a box or two of the ammo at the link below in your favorite caliber (I'm an AR-15 fan, so the .223 would be my choice!) and go to work - so long as these fellas are on your property, or you have the property owner's permission of the lot they're running around on. Here's a blurb from the Fla. Fish & Wildlife web site that gives guidance:
Hunting
"
Wild pigs are legally defined as wildlife and are the second-most popular, large animal hunted in Florida (second only to the white-tailed deer).
On private property with landowner permission, wild pigs may be trapped and hunted year round using any legal to own rifle, shotgun, crossbow, bow or pistol. There is no size or bag limit, and you may harvest either sex. Also, no hunting license is required. A gun and light at night permit is not required to take wild hogs with a gun and light on private lands with landowner permission.
