Big city rodents. Coons & skunks & garbage. Nothing can go out the night before otherwise you have a trail of chicken bones on the driveway. Up & coming city roadkill . . .

We had one trying to make a home above our garage a few years ago and got an education from the Ontario Wildlife folks when we called to find out how to get rid of him. They are far from harmless! Carrier of rabies and other nasty little diseases and it is estimated that 70% plus are infested with a roundworm that can prove fatal to humans if ingested or inhaled...and the damn worms can live in soil for years!!! A toddler died in TO a few years ago after palying in the dirt where some feces were found...

Yah, I could train them to take dumps where the target lives. Hoping they will get roundworm. LOL

This thread seems to have taken a 180 pretty quick.

Someone hit a 20 pound racoon after the Sat. Mosport day and lost the splitter on their car.

reminds me of the ol' biking rule.
chances are if it looks like you can eat the animal in one meal/sitting...you can just hit it without bailing like turbogary indicated in his pic.

Powerwashers are always fun around pests. That's how I justified the Karcher purchase years ago; "Honey, that will really blast those pesky pigeons off the Porsche...uh, I meant Porch!"

They may look cute and harmless and entertaining, but they are wild animals and can turn into a vicious little ****bag at the drop of a hat. You do NOT want these little guys anywhere near your place of residence!
