Default Raccoon Repellent

BK, Sorry to hear that your urine doesn't work. I kind of thought that
the dispenser would still have to be attached to the coyote for it to
work. Thanks for the description, I will sleep better.

*LOL* You sir are just a little TOO MUCH! *LOL* The dispensers are

little
bottles about the size and shape of shampoo bottles you get in a

hotel with
3/8" circles cut out on all 4 sides, a cotton ball inside and a

small cable
tie used to hang it from whatever you choose. Now maybe you can

purge that
other image from your mind. :-)

This however, is all moot as (the following in 48pt, bold,

underlined, color
bright red)....THE COYOTE URINE DOES NOT, repeat DOES NOT WORK! The

next
report I give on the coyote urine is whether I was able to retrieve

my
$16.78 from the place I bought it!

Fortunately I saw him within 20-30 seconds of his arrival. When I

jumped up
he saw me through the window and ran back out through the gate. Once

there
he made a 180 and looked back in through the gate. His nose was 2 "

away
from the CP dispenser for for at least 10 seconds. No reaction at

all -
nada - nothing. Then not seeing me he decided to come back in and I

was
waiting for him and without going into detail, I discouraged him

again and
he left and didn't come back.

Somehow I keep picturing the original dispenser the coyote used,

in a
blister pack, hanging on a hook in the store. ............... and

you
buying two of them.
On a serious note, They have not touched my WH

but
they have torn out 80% of my water cress. I thought they were just

mad
at me but the water cress does taste pretty good. That could be

the
target. They think it's a salad bar with frog legs, escargot and

sushi
side dishes.

Hank: 3 straight nights now since I marked my territory with CP

and
no
visits from the Raccoons. (Fingers crossed/knock on wood) I even

took down
my soft drink can pyramid (well today is trash day too).

Number two in trap!!!!!! The rest of the family trashed the

pond,
They
even ate all the flowers and buds from all the lilies. I think

I
need
more traps. All of the older fish seem ok. (We have not had

bonding
sessions with the smaller GF yet.) It seemed as if all were

present
for their orange slice this morning.
I think the family is getting angry. They overturned

several
potted plants in yard and finished their raid with a

refreshing
dip in
the swimming pool.
Well, time to take #2 to be with his sibling.
At $16. that coyote **** is starting to sound like a

bargain.

news Well one raccoon relocated. Found him a nice spot by a lake.

He
was
kind-of small, and cute as he stuck his human-like little

paw
out of
the cage as if to say, "Come closer so I can RIP YOUR LIPS

OFF"!
...... I reset the trap ..... I have a strong feeling Mama

and
family
are nearby waiting to have another swim and buffet in Hank's

Puddle.
........ Let us know how the "Midnight under a coyote"

cologne
works.

For $16 you should have gotten the whole coyote! It is

supposed to
work if there are coyotes in your area. The coon may just

think it
is
cheap cologne if it does not recognize it as a predator. I

looked
out
this morning to one furry bandit in a Hav-a-heart. I think

I'll
take
the little guy to the park today. Good luck with

yours. I
hope
I
only have one.

I know some of you will think I'm just kidding due to my

recent
run-ins with
the raccoon but this is serious - no kidding.

Yesterday I was at Petco and was talking to the guy in

the
fish
department
and I mentioned I had a pond. He tells me that he used

to
but
gave
it up due
to being constantly trashed by the raccoons. So I

mentioned
to
him
that I
had 4 visits from coons in the last week and I was

thinking
of
trading in
the goldfish and koi for 200 4" piranhas to remedy the

problem.
(OK
I can't
help it - just kidding about that part).

So he tells me I should get some coyote urine...that if

it
was
available
when he had the problem, he's probably still have his

pond.
For
a
second I
thought HE was kidding and I said, "You said coyote

urine?"
He
said
that
they sell it across the street at Green Thumb Nursery.

So I
went
over there
and bought an 8 oz bottle plus a couple of dispensers.

Last
night
was the
first time I used it and didn't have a visit -

coincidence?
I
don't
know but
I had to try it even if it was $16.

Anybody else hear of it? And it IS actual 100% pure

coyote
urine,
not some
chemical (according to them). I'll take their word for

it.

They have a web site: http://www.legupenterprises.com
