    Backyard racoons

    This solution might be entertaining. My parents have a healthy racoon population in their yard. So I set this up today. Its got marshmallows and Caven's Moonshine racoon lure in it.

    Hummm, just open the lid, and throw a can of sardines in the bottom. Raccoon will climb in and already be ready for transport. Much easier....

    Sorry to miss lead. The pans were set out very far from the house at the edge of the fields.

    Make sure you save the tails for the CB antenna on your truck. I'm over-due for new coon tails for my rigs myself.

    Nice racoon killing tools.

    I had no idea CB caps would penetrate a skull.
