Okay, so an update on raccoons. We seem to have a happy family living in our neighborhood. Theres a mama and four babies that I know of for sure, and I am sure some males are lurking around. On Sunday night we spotted the mama and all four babies in the tree, just off our patio. They just stared at us as we flashed lights at them, and then the mama took two of the babies to the small pond we have in our backyard. So on Monday we soaked some tennis balls in ammonia and set them around the patio, pond and trees. They supposedly dont like the smell. We hung one in the tree, near where they climb up. Well, this morning, Jed watched two of the babies in the tree, PLAYING WITH THE BALL!!! OY vey!!! Well, so much for that!! LOL!!! Today we are putting spikes in the pond. I sure hope that works.
