We had a family of racoons living in a tree on the edge of our driveway. The babies were so cute! I think the mother was caught by the exterminator who was called out to the neighbour to the south of us to rid a racoon from their attic. They can do a lot of damage in attics. We couldn't park our one vehicle anywhere near that tree without getting racoon pee on it! The neighbour to the north finally trapped all the babies. Problem solved. Possums can be a problem too. We had one hanging around at our old house. We have musk rat and an ermine that the neighbour is trying to trap. Ermines can be vicious little buggers! Tree rats can be a problem in the garden especially with green tomatoes. Last fall I caught a couple of them snitching green roma tomatoes and taking only a bite or two then dropping as an *in your face* thing. They're fair game for trapping now! I have a motion activated sprayer that makes a funky noise. It is a humane way of keeping 4 legged and 2 legged pests out of my veggie garden. It's too cold to get it out right now but in another couple of weeks. Hopefully buggs will be caught before that.
