Rebecca Grant sends good hex for pesky raccoons To the editor, CM: Though they look adorable those pesky raccoons can reek havoc. They ate all our corn in the garden last year. I have a friend who lives on Lake Cumberland who told me his secret for dealing with raccoons. Seems they don't like bleach...he pours a small amount in his garbage can and around it. His wife used it around her flower containers also. They still come around but don't mess in the bleach treated areas.
