| hiya guys, the factory next door to my work was throwing out 2 sheets of white plexi-glass plastic, sizes are 6 foot by 8 foot each, by 3 mm thick. now the dilemar is what the bloody hell do i do with then now i got them home ?? was thinking should i put them on the loft floor or do i cut them up and put them in the boxes, any one used them on the floor before and found it to be a pain in the arse, or do i just get rid , any ideas |

Thats is similar david if not the same thing. I read dont have glass windows for the birds to look out of, maybe this will work for windows. I have one made of plexi-glass but it stays open because it is coverd with wire. |

| I have welded wire, that is mostly cat proof, racoons are very strong though and with work they can get into the loft. |

| Yes racoons are similar to badgers but not as mean as I would imagine a badger. They are very destructive they will kill every bird before eating any. And yes they are everywere here, even in dumpsters in cities and have been known to carry rabies. |

| yes a badger has a very powerful jaw, dog fighters/baiters break a badgers jaw and make it fight a dog, horrible thing to do |

| Foxes are the same here David but, I try to discourage any varmits as we call them from showing face here. I have a pretty good dog that barks and i have decent aim with a long gun. |

| i see the foxes regular around my loft chad, some are as big as a dog........they think nothing of walking around during the daylight and they often come through my garden where the birds are, i can smell them when they are recently been through , but thankfully as yet ive had no trouble from them with the pigeons. |
