Well we have caught 4 and then last night nothing. I know nothing came by last night cause my daughter accidently left 3 eggs setting on the table near the coop and they were still there this morning. If the coon got wise to the trap it would have had an easy meal with the eggs. We are still setting the traps for awhile just in case. I am hoping that they are finding that the resturant has closed and they will have to go elsewhere for dinner.I am checking daily for any way that they can enter the coops, so far everything looks secure. I hope so anyway.Ive thought about electric fence but I have so many trees that they could just drop down from a tree so I dont think that will work. I was told that ammonia will deter them but that isnt good for the chickens so nix on that. I just hope that we have trapped the ones that found us and that the coops are better now so hopefully we wont have a repeat. Everyone around here says the coons are bad this year. Wish me luck.
