Sorry I haven't replied lately, I had surgery & just got out of the hospital yesterday. The only thing that we've trapped were racoons. I haven't had any problems since I've posted though so thats great! I don't believe a racoon did this though and whatever it was just moved on after I put the hardware cloth on. I wasn't able to get a trap for a week or so after I posted this so whatever it was probably just moved on I guess??
