Coons

Anyone know a good remedy other than a .22 to keep coons from eating feed?
I put protein/corn mix in a trough and they are in it nightly as much if not longer than the deer are.

Caught a bunch of them on the dog proofs but would catch a lot more if I could get to my place more often.
You have to have two days. Set one and check the second. I take dog food in a gallon zip lock bag and pour a little fish oil over it. Pour in the trap and a little around the trap.
I secure mine with baling wire on one end and the other to a tree.

Mama used to sweep coons off the porch with a broom.

Feed them for a few weeks and they'll come right up close to you in big groups a lot of times, then just taken them out with a shotgun or something you can get most of them at once.
The other, probably better option, is to just set out a bunch of traps.

Varmints are out of control since trapping has nearly gone away.
Killing the turkey population and hit the feeders big time.
I shoot every varmint I see.

have you tried a "no coons allowed" sign at the trough? how about a $5.00 cover charge? or a toll booth? or feeding liver and onions instead of corn (coons HATE liver & onions)
