That blasted raccoon that has trashed my watergarden twice!
The professional critter-catcher left 2 Hav-a-heart traps set a week
or so ago, and the one in the crawlspace had been tripped once with
nothing in it....but tonight, I heard the trap close, hubby checked,
and wow!! the 'coon was IN it this time.

Whew! Sure hope the catcher takes him far far away before releasing
him.

I bet the raccoon was sooooo embarrassed to get caught! Let's hope he tells all
his friends to stay away from that pond!

I think more like MAD! He grabbed the trouble light cord that was
under the cage and pulled part of it into the cage and chewed it up!
It wasn't plugged in.

I hope you are luckier than I. In the past two weeks I have set the
trap every night and so far the total is eight ........ nothing in the
past three nights ......... so maybe ***crossing fingers**** that's
it.
It's amazing how quickly water-cress and WH can recover.
