               Well, the racoons racked havoc on my corn.  Now Im worried about my watermelons...Last year they did get a melon or two, but this year Im growing big melons..So any advise.  I am going to set a trap near where I believe they den is and what else can I do.  A fence is not an option.  What about mothballs...but I have cats and dont want the cats near the moth balls.  help..

               Fox or coyote urine may scare them away.
