Re: [mou-net] Racoons & their Friends 🐿️

2024-07-28 Thread Winter X
I put a metal air duct around my 4x4 wooden pole , about 10 years ago .  Our 
small hobby farm is ‘’filled’’ with critters = we are on a pond and small lake 
— so , many nice critters to watch .  This has been very helpful in keeping 
raccoons and squirrels off a very nice feeder.   Our 150x50 foot garden has 4 
level electric fence and motion detector water cannon = keeps out deer,turkeys 
, squirrels, raccoons , opossums—-etc..  This year has been very active 
with many many active visitors… 
 The metal duct works … 
  Good Luck 🦝
