In the last couple of weeks, we have trapped a dozen coons and opossum. All with the same trap set in the same location...right in my barn.
I couldnt for the life of me figure out why there was such a boom in predators.
Well, today the answer became clear when I saw my neighbor toss a turkey carcass on our property line!!!
I ranted about it to my kids and their response was 'oh, you didnt know that she does that?'
What?
Apparently all of her edible trash goes on the property line....bad fruit, bad veggies, 1/2 eaten this, that and the other thing.
OMGosh!
The kids say it is always gone the next morning. No kidding! Into the bellies of the local coon and opossum population.
