Coons on feeders...will this work?

Vaseline the poles and motor.

Nothing on earth will keep them from getting to that corn.

I have pictures of them standing one on top of another to make a ladder so that the top coon can reach the feeder and throw out corn for his buddies. Those jokers are smart.

won't work. i tried it. i also tried razor wire and pipe insulation spiked with disposable double-sided razors. neither of them worked.
coat the legs with vasoline about once a month. this helps. i was afraid of the smell of axle grease.

They will figure out a way to get it, we have tried everything down at our place. We switched over to the taller protein feeders in hopes they wouldn't be able to get at it, but all we did was give them a place to chill



and sleep



and bang



and they can still get at it

We tried the strips. did not work. I have found a .22 works best.

I also have pictures of them swinging from a nearby limb (20 feet above and away) and jumping onto the top of the feeder, then hanging upside down on the side so that they can reach into the mouth and throw feed out onto the ground for their buddies.

My coons went to Harvard, apparently.
