I've been saying for years...If there's one animal that is adapting to take over the world, it's Raccoons.

Raccoon Pool Party



quote:

The gaze, which is the formal name for a group of raccoons, can be heard squeaking at each other. Another one runs around the edge of the pool while the others frolic in the water.

No bans, but a couple of strongly worded private messages.

Humans would never act like that. Would they?

Raccoons spread a very bad parasite that is deadly to humans: Baylisascaris procyonis. The parasite will not die from chlorine. The only way the parasite can be removed from your pool is by filtration. If a raccoon shits in your pool its best to, remove the shite, shock it for other microorganisms and filter for at least a week. After filtering replace your filters or replace the sand if you have a sand filter by bagging. Use aseptic technique.

Raccoon shite on surfaces needs to be removed aseptically and burned with fire after removing the crap. If you can't burn the surface with fire pour boiling water were the raccoon crap once laid.

That’s pretty scary we have raccoons almost every night. They often sleep on our outdoor furniture.

Damned raccoons come by and finishes off the cat food every night.

It will just sit there, looking straight at you through the window, and slowly eat the food piece by piece.

Edited to note there are 2 that look exactly alike.

It’s pretty serious if you get it into your eyes, brain or other internal organs but there have been around 25 documented cases of infection per the CDC.

Fewer than 25 cases of Baylisascaris disease have been documented in the United States. However, it is possible that some cases are incorrectly diagnosed as other infections or go undiagnosed. Cases that are diagnosed tend to be severe.


Cases have been reported in California, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Oregon, Washington and Pennsylvania. As of 2018, there were 23 published human neurological cases in the US; six of the infected persons died.



I think I'll continue to not give a shite about raccoon shite bro
