Old Ironmaker Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Lew I just read what you wrote, that's tragic. It just shows how fragile life can be. Rick you must be dumping your chamber pot out the window for all those critters to stay away. Why you don't have those pests is beyond explanation. Where are they? Inside the puppies?

manitoubass2 Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 They could be lol. But id imagine something critter could get in there. The bushline is like 10ft from the back of the shed where the holes are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Ironmaker Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 The critters really don't bother me much unless I have to clean up after them. I just like saving water from not flushing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Its a christmas miracle I dont have skunks, groundhogs or raccoons here. I store my garbage in the shed and it has holes in the walls lol. No garbage service here so I only do one dump run a week about 15km away I thought for sure skunks would be a huge issue when we moved in here I would think the bears, wolves and dogs would keep them away.

lew Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 A few of the homes on my road are using these steel critter proof garbage bins now. Very expensive at around $600 and up but they sure keep the animals out. I've seen them rolled over several times by bears trying to get in and not even a mark on them. https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCoQFjABahUKEwiQ8Mm5_IfIAhWJS5IKHfHVDWQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftyedeebin.com%2F&usg=AFQjCNG0VZLV-dmtSDvq6l-DufdZGS7W6g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddler Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 When I used to grow sweet corn in my garden the coons ate most of it before I had a chance. I read in a gardening magazine once to get fox urine sold at hunting stores. Figured what the heck and gave it a try. A few drops on some of the out side row plants. Worked like a charm. Reapplied after a rain. Never had anymore coon problems after that. Used it for years then I started having squirrels getting my corn. It didn't seem to faze them If you can still get it try the fox urine. How do they get the fox to pee in the bottle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headhunter Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 I had a problem with coons getting into my green bin... until I got a dog. Just put the dog poop in the garbage and the coons will not go near it. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
