The rose canes might work, but raccoons are very persistent (and tough). If you make cones of thin tin, like roof edging, and put them on the...
No need to fear the dentist--see what he did for me? Pearly whites!
No pumping? My biceps will atrophy. I love those lovely two-gallon pump sprayers--beats a gym membership! We put our bunnies on treadmills....
