The house I bought 20 years ago had 3 old sheds in the back. All painted btight red. One looked like a caboose. The 2nd was set up as a nesting home for racoons. Neighbors tell me the prior owners had 12 nesting pairs in their at one time. They definitely were a major contributor to the racoon probkem in the area. The shed was clear when I bought the home, but 10 years after the shed was torn down I still had 8 racoons (3 generations) tearing up the pond I built on a nightly basis.I know we have quite a variety of animals on this forum (cats, squirrels etc), but if we have any raccoons, can we please make sure no-one is actually feeding them.
