Racoons

[coxy]

Kinda like gray squirrels that come to the bird feeders. Shot 4-5 one day and shot 4-5 the next and shot 4-5 the next,it never stops.

I like eating gray squirrels send some my way we don't have many here anymore every thing but me is eating them use to see 40-50 a day while deer hunting but if you see one all day your doing good  my grandma use to make gray squirrel and sauerkraut yum yum  ;D

but you gotta leave one foot on to show that it ain't a house cat.  ;) :D :D

A discerning clientele requires assurances as to the authenticity of their purchases.  Who can blame them, cat only tastes good when it is labeled as teriyaki chicken  :D

Coxy,

Squirrel eater  :D. 

[coxy]

some one has to do it     and they don't taste like teriyaki chicken

come on now you just had to say rats didn't you

Bushy tailed tree rats thats what I call them, I think its an appropriate name. Mind you they are more colorful then rats but still a tree rat.

For the raccoons we have around here you more or less only have 1 chance to catch them in a cage / box that sits naked on the ground. If they go in and set it off and it doesn't lock them in you now have to put something around the cage to hide what it is. My in-laws had a problem with them eating all there cats food in there garage it would even lift the door to get in. She wanted me to use all kinds of different things as bait, I told here none of it would work but tryed it anyway. Once I went to what they were coming for, cat food, I trapped out 4 or 5 of them in a week.

  The "dog proof" coon traps work quite well if you are worried about your or your neighbors dogs, they are not cat proof but I don't really care for cats.

They can't resist Golden Malrin fly bait either, but that goes for cats and dogs, too. They only make it a few steps away.

Poison is never a good idea

[Blake22]

I'm against poison also.   No good can come from that.

The dog proof coon traps work very well.  Cats won't try to fish out a marshmallow with some sunflower seeds in them and the curious nature of coons make them work awesome.  I had a problem with coons on my back porch this summer till I bought a few a these traps.  I think 21 in 21 days was the total before they were no longer a problem.

[Blake22]

I set a dozen dog proof traps today............wish me luck!!!

[POSTON WIDEHEAD]

My dad (90) has 10 traps. Its the type that the door slams when the Coon goes in the trap to 
get the bait.
Thats his thing checking the traps in the mornings.
He has caught a lot of cats. Just open the door and the cats run away. In fact it scares the cats so bad they don't mess with the traps anymore.
He has a guy that picks the Coons up that uses them to train Coon Dogs for hunting.

David,

Don't get caught yourself.  Sardines are good, but not that good that you get hauled off and chased by coon dogs.
