I hope you aren't handling them! Certainly not with my bare hands. The first one I picked up with a plastic bag, the second one I used leather gloves to put it in the bag. My neighbor has been having problems with rats and put some poison bait out under his house.

Re: PESO raccoon PS: the other one died too
That was a big problem a few years ago, when we experienced a rabies outbreak/scare. People, and I use that term very loosely with any creature that will do this sort of thing indiscriminately, put out poisened bait for raccoons. Raccoons, or any other mammal for that matter, with rabies will ignore food. All that was accomplished was a lot a orphaned raccoon kits and not a few dead dogs.

Re: PESO raccoon PS: the other one died too
I caught a faint whiff of something bad, and checked the attic. I found another raccoon, full grown, just inside of the entrance above where I found the other one. unartistic shots of a dead raccoon: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157625592134064/ Fortunately, this one hadn't started to stink.

I think it would work for all small varmints. Opossums, squirrels, raccoons. Rats would probably just burrow into an area without light.

Re: PESO raccoon
From: Jeffery Smith An interesting way to keep them out of the attic is a strobe light. They can hack just about any annoyance except that one. Not terribly practical, though. Jeffery Would that work for squirrels too? I did burglar alarms for 15 years, and I could rig a cheap strobe to a timer ~ 3 min or so and use an IR motion detector to trigger it and the whole thing can be powered by a 12v gel cell power pack (constant trickle charge with AC from a wall wart). It wouldn't take 5 minutes to build it and less than an hour to install it. The only challenge I see is finding an older version motion detector that doesn't have circuitry to keep pets from setting it off. If pets won't set it off, squirrels wouldn't set it off. I'll have to dig around some at home. I may even have one still left over from my BA days. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO raccoon
From: David J Brooks We have raccoons and skunks in our are and at times under my shed and in my detached garage. I hate them. I worry about the rabies a lot. They and the skunks tear up my yard, nest in neighbours chimney's tear up my compost bin the region uses to collect wet waste and create general havoc.

We used to have a LOT of skunks around the training sites at Ft. AP Hill, and they'd get into the tents. Post animal control recommended the mothballs solution. You'll have to keep an eye on the mothballs to make sure pets & children don't get hold of them. I'd talk to your county animal control agency about them as well.

Back when I worked as a claims processor for Allstate Insurance, I got more than a few calls from homeowners -- in tears -- seeking to claim damages due to raccoon infestation. They can do an AMAZING amount of damage. So, you might want to thank your lucky stars that this particular one won't be wintering in your attic. And, when you're done, contact your agent and see if you have coverage for such things ... and if not, you might want to check into it. -- Walt On 12/10/2010 3:46 PM, Larry Colen wrote: It's more fun to photograph the happy moments, but sometimes I think it's the sad moments that make the more powerful photos.

For an animal without an opposable thumb, they have great gripping power. I could spend half an hour trying to get a cable loop around a raccoon's neck.

Re: PESO raccoon
They can get rabies, so be cautious. They are pretty resilient to falls. They get into the attic in two of my college's buildings and come crashing through the acoustic tile onto the floor on a regular basis. They also have a host of intestinal parasites that can make them pretty sick. This looks like a young one. I've had a few of them die in captivity during my grad school years.

It's more fun to photograph the happy moments, but sometimes I think it's the sad moments that make the more powerful photos. I found this poor little fellow lying dead on my back stairs. I don't know what happened, but he's right below the hole that the raccoons have been using to get into my attic, I suspect that he may have fallen climbing in or out. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5249450643/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5249453755/ -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
