Does anyone have a way to keep raccoons off a protein feeder?

Shotgun,.22,.223

sorry, but you asked

PVC pipe over legs with a screw to keep it from sliding down it will spin keeping them from climbing up the legs

Thanks

I never saw a dead coon climb a feeder leg. So I agree with Central Texas Hog Traps,

SPIN TECh

I agree. Just gotta make the time to get out there get rid of them.

lots of koon traps, and lots of trapping and shooting. I had the same problem on one place, took off over 40 in a month and a half and that was with what steel jaw trap, and one box trap, and i shot 4 while i was out there some evenings.

simple wire cage over the spinner

Don't have a spinner. It is eat at their will for the deer and hopefully not the raccoons.

i bet u have some big ole koons^^jmysr.

True. Haven't put the protein feeder out yet but they are all over my corn feeder. Putting it out tomorrow. We'll see. Put PVC on the legs as recommended.

inexpensive fly bait.. sold at your local feed stores, sounds cruel but definately WORKS.

"GET AWAY"® Squirrel & Raccoon Repellent

• Repels squirrels from bird feeders.
• Repels raccoons from garbage, gardens, and lawns.
• Repels by odor and taste.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS:
For outdoor use only. Will stain fabric. Do not use where vegetable oil would be undesirable, such as car finishes, home sidings or screens. May stain concrete. Spray inconspicuous area to test. Animals will be repelled at the point of contact. It is important to cover entire area to be protected in each application.

Bird Feeders: To discourage the raiding of bird feeders by squirrels, wet area around bird feeder, including pole, tree limbs, trunk and leaves. Use spray setting for feeder and stream setting for all other areas. Apply 0.10 oz. (approximately 3 full trigger sprays) per square foot. Reapply every 7 to 10 days.

Landscape Areas: To discourage digging by squirrels in landscaped areas, best results are achieved when product is applied to existing bark mulch. Wet entire area to be protected, especially outer perimeter. Use stream setting. Apply 0.20 oz (approximately 5 full trigger sprays) per square foot. Reapply 7 to 10 days.

Garbage Bags: To reduce frequent tearing of garbage bags by raccoons, spray entire bag thoroughly, including the bottom. Use spray setting. You may put trash out up to 36 hours before pickup.

Lawns and Gardens: To discourage unwanted raccoons from entering a lawn and garden, spray in a five foot wide perimeter for border protection. Use spray setting. Apply 0.10 oz. (approximately 3 full trigger sprays) per square foot. Reapply every 7 to 10 days.

try wheel bearing grease too. 'Coons are notoriously "clean" animals and once they get that stuff all over their fur they'll be too d@mn mad to try it again. If you think I'm crazy try shampooing your hair with the stuff then going to work...

ive also heard tat vasoline kiks arsse.

Something that my uncle tried at his place is he ducktaped carpet tackstrip to the legs...we came back and there was blood all over the legs from the coons cutting up their feet. Seems to be working pretty good. We also just shoot the hell out of them when we see them.

I made the PVC for the legs and put it out. Haven't been back yet. Should be out there weekend after Easter. We'll see what happened. I like the tack strip idea also.

Keep ideas coming!

I tried the tack strip, wasting your money and time. Them coons have to be shot!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bang

I will dowmload pictures of my feeders next week so you can see what I did. Coons and squirrels HATE me now. These this really work.

Thanks can wait to see them. Should be going out this week to check mine.
