Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Wildlife Management Raccoons and Fish Feeders - How To Keep Them OUT!

We live on some acres, the coons are here but usually stay away from the house. If I start to see things being messed with or feeders torn down, I put out live traps. There is usually one or two ringleaders and I re-locate them to the next county. Suprisingly, the trouble usually stops for a good while.

A friend of mine was telling me he had a very bad problem with destructive coons around his house in a residential area. He tried the flybait and cola method. He said it was soooo effective he would not dare use it again, ever, and hopes his neighbors don't find out it was him. A half dozen coons, two oppossums, and a fox. In one night from one pan. This was summertime and he said the stink was awful.

I'm not suggesting this method, I'm saying if you get desperate and someone suggests this, Know what will happen.
