I'm down here in Texas, where it's hot as Hades down here.. well, I've never been to Hades.. but.. you get the idea. I haven't caught much lately since it's gotten so hot. Caught a fiesty little possum the other day... Last coon I got was maybe 3 weeks ago... a mama it looked like, as she was...

I'm using Marshmallows with GREAT results. My problem is... ants. If a raccoon doesn't happen to come that night, ants are all over the marshmallow. (would have the same problem with anything I put out there. Yes, I have put ant poison out.. these Texas ants are TOUGH!) - so my dad gave me...

I'm finding it a little disturbing that I'm enjoying this thread so much. I do a little jig when I hear one of you got another coon. I've only gotten 2, plus one mama possum (that had 3 babies in her pouch) - so each of us is doing our part to put a tiny dent in this "pest" infestation we all...

Thank you, Shellz, I was thinking the same thing. It will cost some money, but I'd prefer to be properly trained, as this is serious business, not something to take lightly. and that possum (yes, I know.. opossum) I caught, taken care of. Thanks! And OrganicHouse... I was "lucky" for my...

yes, I'm enjoying this thread myself. I am not a gun owner (yet) - but my father in law, who lives on the property with us, is... and he's very good with his .22. He's getting up there in age, though, so I think I need him to teach me a thing or two. Thought about "professional" lessons, as...

Well, If I didn't live in the city limits and have nothing better to do, I'd probalby sit in a corner of my property and hunt them too! Can you come here Redneck Farmer and hunt mine, too? (just don't get the cat!!)

HOORAY for the raccoon catchers/killers. I'm truly an "animal lover" - so it feels a bit against my nature to feel so good about the deaths of raccoons, but I lost 3 more chickens, so yeah... I'm on a mission. I use the live traps (because those + marshmallows + my father in laws .22 = a sure...

Oh, I do not disagree Quigley.... at all. There is a feral cat in the area that I have kept a close eye on... my "problem" is the "mouser" cat we have... came with the property, previous owner asked if we'd take the cat on.. my daughter fell in love with her. She's a great cat... but yes...

GREAT JOB keirys!! I too live near the city and would be afraid I'd catch our "mouser" cat (which fortunately leaves the chickens alone) or a neighbor's cat. I'm using a live trap with large marshmallows. So far I've only set it twice, and caught one the second night. I need to keep it...
