Crayfish Infestation



I did not realize Signal Crayfish are such a problem in Great Britain and Europe. Strange because American trout and fish are not that much different than European ones (European brown trout are commonly introduced to American rivers), yet fish and Signal Crayfish seem to co-exist just fine in North American rivers.

But introduced species can cause havoc (as we have seen time and time all over the world). American crayfish also introduced a plague that significantly hurt the native crayfish in Europe.


Of course, when in doubt, trap and eat them!




This is a pretty basic recipe above. I would add fresh herbs to this and be careful not to over cook the crawfish (crayfish).  I know it is traditionally served with rice, but it would be great with grits/polenta too. You could skip the starch too.  

I like crayfish shrimp boiled and eat them that way.  If you have left overs shells, feed them to the chickens or leave them out for the crows and raccoons to take care of.
