Damn those Raccoons

They are back. They are so back. And they are everywhere. They've taken to knocking. It is my belief that they are knocking to give off location. When they do it (at all hours of the day and night), it sounds like an actual real live human being is knocking at the front door - or perhaps on the wall right next to your HEAD.

The traps have been out for days, but they've figured out how to get the bait without getting in the trap. Beasts.

And now I'm dreaming about them. Two nights ago, they were man-sized, like the Yeti, and they were chasing me all over the house. I woke up sweating. Last night, there were SCORES of them. I looked out the window and they were all over the backyard. I went to get my camera, but when I went to take a photo, they would all take off running like a swarm of so many buzzing bees. They would do a circle around the suddenly gigantic yard (it looked like the hills at Gabe's wedding). As soon as they would come back into sight (it would take long enough that I would put down the camera and give up on them coming back), I would grab for the camera and it would start all over again.

Help.
