Just giving him a little incentive…..

If I saw racoons in my house, I’d call an exterminator.

About this time of year the raccoons eat all the cherries. They defeat every deterrent so far.

Whatever works.

Just let some spiders and a rat loose. Tell her that her family is visiting.

That plan could backfire on you.

What do you thing these fingers are for? To scratch our bellies?

A raccoon got into the attic and died because it couldn’t get out. The smell was horrible. More terrible was that it entered through a closet and ruined all of the clothes. Hate raccoons.

On my first job, my new boss came in late one day and announced that squirrels had gotten into his attic.

I told him that there was medicine for that now.

One of the best ever – but I glad my wife doesn’t read comics.

Typical of ‘typical sneaky females’ BUT…………if a husband were to do the same thing, we would be banished to the couch for month….minimum, if not worse ! ! ! ! !

Lots of clever comments today but I’m just envious of “his” bathroom which must mean another one for “her”.

ba dum tss

hmm, usually I hear that joke as a rat or a cockroach, never a racoon.

I have a gray fox and 4 kits living under my metal building these days. They sure keep down the mice.

Staying at a relative’s house in a room with a dormer window. Summer, Windows open. Wake up to scratching on the screen and I am face to face with the nasty critter. I woke the house up. Pretty sure the raccoon fell off the roof. Next day a tree next to the house got a good trimming.

The smell will kill him.

One year I thought racoons were nesting in my attic. I could hear them running around and squeaking. I starred at my ceiling fan and hoped they wouldn’t fall through ’cause they sounded like they were in the ceiling gnawing on the wires. When I finally was able to get an exterminated to come out, he found nothing. Turns out, they were just squirrels running around; which lead to knowing I needed a new roof. The exterminator said it was very weak.

Poor racoon

That’s not nice, lady in Roz’s Roost.

Is that like an “Elf on the Shelf” sort of thing?
