Diana: I was up later than normal last evening, I was having an argument with a racoon that seemed determined to hang in on our patio. It has concrete floor and walls thus a cannon was out of the question, plus couldn't see him once he was off the step. I got a couple of good wacks at him with a hardwood stick. I think a dish where Marg. feeds our cat was drawing him.

Last week he spent one night in my shop, pulling out old birds nests from last year. I had sealed the shop cracks good last year to keep out birds, cats, racoons, etc. A week ago I noticed mice in shop, thus left a small door open for cat. Of course the racoon took advantage of the open door, pulled all bird nest material down over tractors.

The last session I had with racoons, 3 of them climbed last power pole before house, being a transformer pole and knocked the power out about 10pm. Utility guy told me they were getting about one call per night with racoons and power poles.

Until the corn gets big enough the damn racoons are hungry. They spend the summer scrounging for food, until the corn cobs up. Ontario had a bounty on racoons at one time.
