We've managed to trap two adult raccoons this Spring and 'relocated' them. If you need to set traps, it seems that Marshmallows are THE thing to lure them in.

They LOVE to steal my suet cages for the birds as well as yanking up fully grown peppers plants by the roots. JERKS!

They like ripping the heads and feet off of chickens just for the fun of it.

So the NWS is calling for 2 1/2 days with good chances of thunderstorms with the wind never getting over 6 mph. ???

Tested retracting the window actuator to 50% overnight when the temp got below 70 degrees. It worked.

Now I want to try it with wind which is easy and will work just like the temp did, but also have it open/extend fully after wind dies down, which is tricky.

Guess I’ll shoot for 10 mph to close/retract it half way. Ain’t no way we get thunderstorms without some wind higher than 6 mph.
