Stuck my head down the hole in the floor to check how much water was still under the house where I am installing a bathtub and replumbing for new fixtures and a raccoon was looking back at me. Fortunately, he/she wasn't that close, about 3' away and on the other side of some pipes, but this raccoon was not shy as I had a 500W light under the house and I had been sucking water out with a shopvac. I am not looking forward to finishing the plumbing until I can figure out a good way to wave good-bye to Rocky and friends. My worst nightmare is that a "Rockie" is a "Rockette" and has a brood under the house with her. Protective mothers are dangerous animals. Its a little late now to close up the outside grate that I left open, in fact, that's the way I'd like them '***** to exit.
Any effective sure-fire plans for this problem?? Sound blasts? Smoke?. Poison bait, (not my favorite)? Sawed-off shotguns? There is not a lot of space to turn around in the muddy wet crawl space and if a raccoon chose to attack, it could get ugly. I'd rather watch Stephen King movies on the big screen instead of becoming the victim in one of them....
