[NAFEX] Raccoons

He was just up there again.  Being in the city, lead injections would not be
wise, so I tried a steel injection, but he flopped out of the tree before my
shovel could educate him.  There's an endless supply of raccoons around
here.  Yeah, I should rent a dog from a neighbor and park him and his dog
house right in the middle of the trees.

 

I was wondering if coating the trunk with tanglefoot would work. 

 

I should probably break down and get an electric fence.  All I would need is
a smallish one (I just have a half dozen trees with raccoon problems).

Hi,

 

How to keep away raccoons.?

 

High speed, lead injections or regular canine incisor massage.

 

Later,

Tom

I just looked out the window to see a big raccoon way up in the top of one
of my sweet cherry trees.  They eat everything and wreck the tree to boot.
What is the best way to keep them out of trees?   They also get almost all
of my peaches later on, too.
