Damn coons *lil furry critters*

[t-homo]

Back while I was camping one night, we had an idea to make a purple coon. We put water in a balloon with a lot of purple food dye in it, covered the balloon in peanut butter, and hung it about 3 feet off of the ground. Next morning, the balloon was popped and there was a ring around where the coon would have been.

Or wait until you have to call the roofers back...

Good luck with Rocky...

Just pump it up and take care of it permanently.

Thos elittle fuckers have been busy. When i went home last night I figured let me check and see what they did in that corner of the roof. They actualy got through the roofing shingles and some of the wood we put down as a temporary patch (it was only some balsa wood we had laying around) and there was a hole I could fit my fist through. Fortunaltey not big enough for them to get in yet but was damn close.

karens brother is comming over next sat to look at it since hes a roofer by trade and will fix it properley, I moved some of the tiles back and secured them and put some wood over the whole and screwed it down. I then sprayed the racoon repellant spray I bought all around the area so hopefuly thats enough to keep em away.

I also found the pellet gun and its locked and loaded

screw bb guns and not breaking the skin; those bastards can get mean (we had one around here last year that actually chased my wife into the garage and cornered her in there) - get some target .22 rounds and put one of THOSE in his ass. Enough to break the skin, sting like a bitch, AND chase him off if you're worried about killing it (and very quiet too; the ones I have are really short and sound like a pellet gun going off).

He won't come back around once you give 'em a second ass hole.

Thats a thought, I also have a large section of pipe outside and will prolly take a knife out with me too on the odd chance he comes at me, because if he does I will kill him. I have almost immediate access to the rabies immunoglobulin and vaccine at woirk and will bring the carcass in for it ot be tested.
