First 2'fer Ever for Me.......

Well in the Coon catching saga we left with our Ego stinging as the Raccoon is smart enough to lift the Trip Pedal 3 nights in a row in the Live Trap. So here is my solution to that.



The pedal is set so tight it may go off when the Raccoon enters. No way the Pedal is moving backwards as it is sitting right against the bolt now. The battles continue, evolution of Mankind may be at stake.

, maybe you’ll get a triple! Weuns wouldn’t want you to regress !

The stakes are too high to fail. Let’s go rojoguio!!!

Man for us it’s the armadillo’s, I’m absolutely exhausted trying to stop them!

We just got a Armo' digging in the yard about the same time this Coon showed up. Please, what did you bait your trap with?

My ear of corn has not worked so back to cat food tonight.........we'll see tomorrow if I get a customer.

The last time I had to relocate one, I used peanut butter smooshed into a little plastic box, said box wired down tight into the live trap. He was actually coming in to my place of work through a vent, and raiding my snacks on my toolbox
He scooted the whole trap over several feet and got ahold of a bag of oil dry and some insulation. Made a heckuva mess!

I have trapped lots of armadillo’s and have used tons of bait’s, unfortunately I haven’t found a bait that works. What I do is get a trap, place in what I think is their path, place a 2x4 angled out creating a funnel for them to bump into and guide them into the trap and hopefully we catch them…..honestly works more often then you’d think.

I don't know how this coon did it but all the bait that was scattered in the trap is gone without tripping the trap. Tonight I am spreading peanut butter all over the pedal. We will see if it can resist.

Caution regressive evolution is happening right before our eyes on CDC.

They are some of the sneakiest and destructive mean grub grabbin lil critters. Good luck as it seems you’ve come up against the Albert Einstein of the raccoons.

I’ve use sardines and those fake plastic Easter eggs. They love eggs and the sardine smell gets their attention.

I trapped one and it rolled the cage next to my garden hose rack. It chewed holes in my 50 hose at so many spots I had to trash it.
Armo’s won’t come to baits but they can’t resist checking out other armo’s in they area. So the best way to trap them is to get a seasoned trap. That’s a trap that has had another armo inside of it. You can buy seasoned traps or you need to use the 2x4 funnel method to trap one then keep that trap exclusively for armo’s.
