    Default My wife was startled by a masked bandit

    That?s right, folks. She was in the garage a couple of nights ago and in walked a raccoon.

    I was upstairs and heard the scream. Figured she was either being attacked by someone or maybe she had seen a mouse. Went to investigate and it must have run away scared by my wife?s blood curdling scream.

    Skip to this morning. I was leaving for work and there were raccoon tracks in the snow in my driveway.

    Guess I need to see if I have raccoons hiding somewhere on my property and figure out the best way to evict them.

    Ha. Guess since this is posted in the ?ask for help? section I should have mentioned I?m open to serious as well as less serious ways for riding my property of vermin within city limits. Thanks.

    I?m not sure we have drains like that in my neighborhood. With my luck they?re probably under my porch or something.

    Yup, here too. And last Friday Animal Control was parked in front of a neighbors house, went down as I saw two officers in the driveway with something in a lasso. A nice big fat Rocky hissing and being a badass. Talked to one of the officers, she said he was looking like he was ready to attack just as her partner got the noose around it's neck. Stuffed it in a cage and off they went. A few weeks ago the pooch was growling looking out the patio door one night. Grabbed the flashlight and two big fat raccoons were glaring back from behind the Russian Olive tree. No way the dog was going out.

    The husband is always the prime suspect you know.
