     they are always around here.   
      
     i have put out some ant bait stations to keep some little   
   brown ant and carpenter ants from coming back and the   
   raccoon decided it wanted to eat the bait (which smells   
   like peanut butter) so it chewed one of them open to get   
   at the bait.  it was pretty thick plastic and it did get   
   in but it didn't repeat the effort for another trap that   
   was nearby but there was a bite mark in it.   
      
     always some new adventure...  :)
