The raccoon is also known as the "masked bandit" beacuse of their unique facial coloring, the raccoon is also called a bandit because of his thiervy. Raccoons are a noncturnal animal. The paws of a raccoon can manuver and open almost anything offered. They have been known to be able to open garbage can lids, garage doors, and windows. They can be found living in caves, rocks, hollowed out trees, and in your attic!

The gestation period for raccoons is about 63 days with a litter averaging four to six young being born in April or May. About 60% of the female raccoons breed and produce litters when they are one year old while males typically do not breed until their second year. Mating season for the raccooon is at its peak in February and March. When about two months old, the young begin accompaying the mother as she hunts for food. Young raccoons remain with their mother throughout the year. Raccoons are typically active from about sunset to sunrise. Researches indicate that the average life span is about three to four years.

The intellegence of a raccoon is such that it can pick an avocado from a tree, aim, and throw it at a barking dog. They can also turn door knobs, without a lock. When they climb down a tree, he backs down, except for the last few steps, when it turns around. Swimming comes easily to the raccoon, who uses water for hunting;and, they have been known to drown dogs, who have pursued them into the water. Never approach a wild raccoon, when threatened, they can defend themselves against much larger animals. Sharp teeth, sharp claws, agility, and strength, all make the raccoon the survivor that he is. Though as many as four million are trapped or hunted each year in the United States, the raccoon population seems to be increasing.

People should not handle raccoons or their waste without protection and appropriate training. Raccoons in the United States are known to carry infectious diseases that can be transmitted to humans and animals that have contact with raccoons or their waste. Raccoons expose humans to disease when handled or if there is exposure to bodily secretions or feces. Salvia, urine, feces and bites or scratched are the most commom routes of exposure. 80% of all North American raccoons carry Roundworm. This disease is caused by a parasite. The roundworm larvae cause problems as they travel through the person's muscles and various organs, including the liver, brain, lungs, and eyes. Raccoons are the primary host of this roundworm whicn is commonly found in their small intestines. Raccoons shed millions of the microscopic roundwrom eggs in their feces. People may encounter the eggs through direct contact with raccoon droppings or by touching a contaminated area or object. If they don't wash their hands, they may later transfer the eggs to their mouths, Small children are particulary vulnerable because they tend to put their hands, and other objects into their mouths. Symptoms in people may include nausea, skin irrations, tiredness, liver enlargement, loss of coordination and muscle control, blindness, and coma. Other common diseases found in racoons are: Giardiasis, Leptospirosis, Salmomella, E Coli, and Rabies. Raccoons are one of the most common species to carry rabies.

Adams Armadillo Removal The nine-banded or long-nosed armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus, is a common but non-native inhabitant of Adams and the only armadillo present in the U.S. Because of its often destructive feeding and burrowing habits in both rural and urban settings, most people who have an armadillo around their home consider it a serious pest. There are actually about 20 species of armadillos in the world and for information on the biology and behavior of these interesting critters I highly recommend the Web site http://www.msu.edu/~nixonjos/armadillo. My purpose here is to demonstrate a successful method of capturing and removing armadillos in an effective, safe and humane manner. While the nine-banded armadillo plays a useful ecological role by consuming large quantities of insects as food, when they take up residence in your yard, garden or worse, dig burrows under your buildings, they can be very destructive and an extreme nuisance. Adams Armadillos are usually active at night, but do forage in the early morning and evening hours. In my yard in north Adams, I have observed a family of young armadillos (see image below) foraging on an overcast day in mid afternoon. Full grown armadillos can dig large holes in the soil and in one night of foraging can ruin large patches of lawn or garden. I often encounter problems with armadillos the night after I spend time working in my garden. They dig around (and destroy) newly-planted flowers that I watered right after planting, particularly during dry weather. Suppressing the insect populations in the lawn will help reduce armadillo damage, but this effort has its own negative side effects if certain pesticides are used. Armadillo reproduction is interesting and unique in that four identical young (quadruplets) from a single egg are produced in each litter. Armadillos are sexually mature at about one year of age and live reportedly for 12 to15 years. Little wonder than that they occur in high densities commonly in Adams. Armadillos roam far and wide with a home range found to be over 12 acres in Adams studies. Thus, combating armadillos around the home will be a never-ending chore. As one is removed another will likely find the open territory.

Methods of removal: Many methods have been suggested for exclusion or removal of armadillos from a yard or other area where they are causing problems. Constructing a strong exclusion fence buried in the ground a foot or so is both expensive and impractical. I have tried most of the trap methods and have found that most are ineffective, require uncommonly available or messy equipment (baits such as earthworms) or some strange behavior like getting up in the middle of the night to chase them with a net. There is an easier way if you use your head and some relatively cheap and readily available equipment. You don't need messy baits, you just exploit the behavior of the armadillo and let them catch themselves at your convenience. Here is how.

Setting the trap: The trap along with the fence sections work together to form a funnel. Armadillos have fantastic noses but apparently poor eyesight. They can be easily "channeled" toward and into a trap. The best location for trap placement is near the entrance of a burrow (see image above). However, this method works sometimes in the open if you set up a large funnel type area with the yard fence as described next First place the fence sections around the burrow entrance such that the emerging armadillo will be forced to move in the direction of the channel formed by the fence. The fence sections should be placed about 12 inches apart in parallel to form the channel or corridor I recommend placing the fencing to form the channel around the burrow without the trap for a few nights before adding the Haverhart trap to allow the armadillo to get accustomed to it, although this may not always be necessary and could be counter productive. Armadillo burrows often have multiple entrances and there may be more than one burrow in your yard. Therefore, an armadillo may not return to the same burrow or use the same entry hole every day.

Make sure that the fence sections are placed such that they overlap on the outside and not inside the formed channel. That is the fence should form sides that are smoothly overlapping in the direction from the burrow toward the trap . After a day or two with the fence in place, set the trap door and place the trap at the far end of the fence channel to make the funnel. Make sure that the fence sections adjoining the trap overlap the trap on the outside edges next to the door. Also, if the soil is uneven, it may be helpful to place a board, stone or soil under the trap so that the trap entrance is level such that the armadillo will have no problem entering. Baits (earthworms, fresh fruit) are not necessary using this trap method, but can be placed inside the trap as an added attraction. Set the trap before dusk and check it again in the morning. A modification of the two-sided funnel method placed near a burrow, is to use a wall, fence or other existing lengthy obstacle in the yard that will serve the same purpose in directing the movement of the roaming armadillos. This has the added advantage of covering more space and increasing the likelihood that an armadillo present will reach the trap. Place the trap tightly against the obstacle. The addition of some fencing as described above on the opposite side of the trap from the obstacle will also help increase capture rate. Captured armadillos can be released back into the wild some miles from the capture site or disposed of humanely. Depending upon the location and conditions of the yard with respect to food availability and that of the surrounding habitat, after some time a new armadillo is likely to move into your territory. So this is a never ending battle. Good Luck!

Often called Americas finest city, Adams has its share of hazards to watch out for. An out of control coyote population is one of them. I hear the heart breaking stories too often. On almost a daily basis callers explain that they lost a cat or dog to a pack of coyotes, as I have as well. Personaly, I dont agree with many animal advocates who want people to ignore the problem as if the coyotes own the land, and public safety comes secondary. Nor do I have problem with a coyote being a coyote, away from people. Its the packs in town I have a problem with.
US Animal Control is an animal damage control company committed to helping the public in urban settings. The first step is educating the public. Then maybe you can see the changes needed on your property to make the area less suitable for coyotes. If the problem is something you dont care to deal with, feel free to call 888-229-2036 to make an appointment with a trained wild life professional
A few years ago Adams was having some real issues with urban coyotes. Cats and dogs were missing or mauled, as well as several people being bitten as well. I personally took the job, and within 30 days I captured and removed 153 coyotes. One pack had 22 members, meaning strength in numbers, they could kill and eat pretty much anything they wanted to, and they did. That was a worse case project that was left out of control for too long. Furthermore, an elderly man on the block had a soft spot for them and he was feeding them in his back yard. Carrying capacity of the land was made stronger by him, so they made more little coyotes.
Back before the area had so many communities, Adams really didnt have much to offer a coyote. So they numbered fewer. But now with irrigation, sod, fruit trees, bird feeders, and pet food bowls, a coyote can get a good meal without traveling far. Let me explain how it works. The coyote will eat grain left out for birds in he has to but the rats and squirrels are of more interest to him. And the bird feeder made the rats and squirrels take interest. Now, why do coyotes kill dogs? The coyote is territorial and is trying to eliminate competition. Also, they want to be sure the young are safe from others who may harm them. Carrying a cane or stick while walking a dog can stop a coyote attack. The attack will be started and done in seconds, so be decisive, and aggressive! It doesnt take much more than a hard TAP on a coyotes snout to make him lay down, this will give you 30-40 seconds to find out how fast you can run before he wakes up. Many a dog walker in Adams has come home wishing he had a coyote stick with him. A 6 foot fence can be jumped by a coyote, or he can dig under, so burry the bottom and go 7 ft. No pet food left out over night. Pick up fallen fruit every evening with out fail. If you have cats claws removed, keep it in the house. It cant defend itself or climb to safety. Be sure the under side of your deck or home is completely closed off. Remember, you control coyote movement by controlling food supply. And having rats and skunks living under there is an invite. Encourage others to do the same! It must be concerted effort to keep the neighborhood safe. If the following tips dont resolve your issue, and it is too far out of control for you to deal with, feel free to call 888-229-2036 to have a professional coyote trapper humanely remove the animals. Re-locating coyotes is not effective, so company policy strictly enforces that ALL coyotes captured are humanely euthanised.
