Coons and Feeders-Another Solution
Got tired of the coons climbing down on my hanging feeder, jumping up and down and emptying it. We live 70 miles from the place and go there about every two weeks, so traps are out. Got an electric fence shocker and a car battery. Grounded the shocker and built a weatherproof cage for it and the battery. Put the hot wire inside PVC pipe so no one on the ground can get jolted. Put both the hot wire and the ground wire on insulatorsattached tothe limb the feeder is hanging from.
Coons stay off the feeder now. This contraption has killed at least3 coons. Next time i go to fill the feeder i will take pictures.
