Critter Control to the Rescue

For the past couple of months we have be plagued by pest that have been destroying our yard.  We have put out multiple varmint repellents in the yard and nothing has worked.  This week I decided we needed to call the professional.  So, Critter Control came out yesterday and set up two traps ($175) and and told me to call them if we had a catch.  Well, guess what?  This morning we caught a raccoon ($75) and a possum ($75) that they will come and retrieve today.  They will also reset the traps to see what else we can catch. My checkbook hopes that we are done because this is costing me a small fortune that I would much rather be spending somewhere else but what is a girl to do?

I must say the raccoon looked pretty cute this morning with those sweet, pleading eyes, but he still has got to go!

The damage...

Lendon wanted to take no chances with the possum.  He was armed and dangerous!

Aww that is a great pic of that poor raccoon. My parents have been setting out their own traps and catching coons as well. Then they drive them far off and let them go. If you don't go far enough they can find your house again.
