A Coon in the Livestock Trailer. #14803901 04/20/20 Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 60,743 Iowa/NW Ontario W wabigoon OP Campfire Kahuna OP wabigoon Campfire Kahuna W Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 60,743 Iowa/NW Ontario I'm told a coon, and her litter of young are in the nose of the Exis trailer. Every year a coon sets up housekeeping there. That would not so bad, but they always chew up the wires.

Every year a coon sets up housekeeping there. That would not so bad, but they always chew up the wires. If it happens every year, why aren't you doing something to fix the problem and prevent the coons from getting in there? Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

You evict them, or solve the problem permanent like? You know, as do I, that there isn't any evicting of raccoons, once they're settled in, the only answer is to solve the problem permanently. You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.

So many times coon stories end up bad for the coons. Last edited by jackmountain; 04/20/20.
