I had a small pond on my rooftop... a part of the garden last year.. one night the cat was going wild... standing under the stairway to the garden and talking up astorm.. go get alife cat..get with it..it's2 am.. go out or go to sleep.. the next night it was the same thing with her.. looking up I found the reason.. comming down about the 5 th step into the house... RACCOON...
I chased him away... and the next day.. I found two packs of ramen noodles from the kitchen opened up on the roof... from his daytime invasion...
this roofgarden is on the 5th floor level.. in Brooklyn... lots of raccoon interactions here.. but for me they aren't as much of a problem as the squrrels... who also travel up the fire escape ladder to my roof... and then eat my expencive dahalia bulbs.... and plant peanuts and wallnuts given to them.. uprooting other planted items..
thankfully.. this year... no coons yet
