I'm so sorry for you; I love fish and it's terrible to go out in the morning and find the carnage that raccoons can leave behind

.
I'm going to ask a friend of mine who has a huge koi pond and has had raccoon problems (they killed two of her flamingoes..talk about going out to something horrible

) and I know that there are some of her neighbors who also feed the coons...I know she had some traps set up but think she took them down and they decided they'd use another approach....I'll try to find out what they're doing now to deter the coons from coming into the yard. I know they aren't using any toxic substances b/c of all the koi and the exotic birds she's got. If I find anything out, I"ll post it here.
