So I caught a coon...*THE SAGA CONTINUES*

[honestlou]

I would actually consider that now that you mention it.

I think this is a family heirloom in the making.

If you still have trouble with them by next week, I wouldn't hesitate to call in a professional.

What I wouldn't give right now for a similar looking racoon, a tiny set of luggage, speedracer's address, and a camera, and a spot to hide across the street...

Man! That is one funny-lookin' animal!!! The possum looks funny, too.

 

[PrairieCajun]

Had your problem. I had a possum die in my attic and then thought I had attic rats. I put several poison boxes out and it was then that I discovered that what I had was MUCH BIGGER than attic rats. The smell was beyond bad. We had to live in the front half of our house for 11 days because ONE of the TWO sibling coons died in a part of the structure we couldn't get to without thousands of dollars of demo. I found the spot where I thought the rats were getting in that was left over from a bad roof job from Spears Roofing (NEVER USE THOSE GUYS) and put the trap in front of the spot and OMG! a Coon in a squirrel trap. I called Tiger Pest Control (Livi Par I think) He came and got the trap and put the coon in a big sealed barrel and relocated it into northern Livingston Parish telling me that he had to do that because if they weren't relocated far enough, that they would indeed travel back looking for siblings and try to mate in the area that they were born. What a mess. But, I called Wildlife and Fisheries and they told me about that guy and I couldn't be more please about the way he handled the job. Take 'em far away or put a bullet in em. I can't do the latter here in town in BR, (probably nobody would call if they heard a gun shot anyway, but....) better to do things the right way for a city dweller. Good luck.

LOL, there is absolutely no way he made it down 1088 north of the interstate all the way to your house in one night.

He may have hitched a ride on one of the Barriere trucks.

Wait, was this the coon you caught and released?

Best thread evarrrr

Agreed!!! Im following this mainly for the laughs...

 

[JadeRaven]

I suppose to add something to the thread. . . .

My pops had a mice problem in his garage. He decided to trap instead of kill. He's on a few acres of land, so he thought he could just take them all the way to the back of his property and dump them out. They all came back.

Wow, I haven't heard those subdivision names in about 7 years now. I used to live over there too in The Woodlands, over in Harper's Landing (242 and 45N aka the red-headed step child of The Woodlands).

 

[Booseman]

This is by far the greatest thread I have read i a long time.
Waiting on updates.

 

[dustyk70]

Me too, I find myself going to BS more often just to check out this thread. Too Funny. Man, I hate to say it but you may have been better to put him out of your misery.

0700 update: empty trap...hope dwindling...

 

[deafdave3]

You KNOW they all had a family meeting while Dad was stuck in the trap. "Now look, kids... don't be stupid like Dad and get stuck in this gosh-darned trap. Never forget what this trap looks like. Uh, son, what's that red dot on your forehead?"
