You have to have then on a cement slab, because weasels will tunnel under, then snakes and others will get in. we set a live trap near a hole they were making in a wall and nabbed one when it came in. You can tell if it weasels because they won't eat them just kill them all and suck their blood. Fucking vampire shits.

We did have them on a slab. There was racoon shit everywhere. I live in Minnesota, in the country. We don't have a snake problem. It's too fucking cold for them. It looks like they dug deep under the fencing. The raccoons around here are about the size of dogs. They've hissed at me and stood their ground. And possums. We have a lot those.

Gotta love country living! We have Raccoons in Missouri and they will find a way to get into the cat food in the shed. My brother enjoys grabbing a gun and shooting them.

It's the little things that amuse us in the wild. ЁЯШВЁЯШВ

I had both it was in BC. On Vancouver Island. Yeah they hissed at me when I chased them out of my grain bin. Nasty fuckers and they can have rabies.

One of my stupid maga neighbors was feeding the raccoons. He had about 40 of them on his property. And you can't talk him because he's a total dick. Stupid people. I'm surrounded by them. ЁЯШЕ

What a dumb shit! Set out live traps with tuna cans You can relocate them, but take them a fair distance, or they come back. (I watched a documentary on urban raccoons in Toronto.)

We have that problem with coyotes. We trenched deep below the ground to put in chicken wire on both sides of the above ground fence. It worked. They still sneak in from the woods looking for the fawns that wind their way through our property. Husband sits on the deck in the late evening with his rifle ready for a coyote debut. We're on an island with no natural predators for them.
