Since my camera is down, I need some help on figuring out how to stop these things

yes prior to buying sharks teeth I put 2 sets of tack strips on each leg to see if that would help, but it didnt, and neither did the sharks teeth. And even if there is something that will deter coons from climbing up the legs, they will still eat the majority of the corn/feed on the ground prior to the deer getting a chance to eat it.
So if you have coons and if you want it to be a deer feeder and not just a coon feeder you need to shoot or trap as many coons as possible. Pike

well I am going to head to the woods this afternoon and take me some PVC pipe with me and install it and see what happens, I know they will eat most of the corn still on the ground but I will be much happier if they can't knock out all the corn from feeder ALLLL NIGHT LONG LOL, plus I have my feeder schedualed to go of at 1. 6am 2. 8am 3. 1pm 4. 4pm so if the deer will learn that pattern they will get the food and be in that pattern come archery season (YA RIGHT) I could hope right LOL
Just filled out my doe tag to send in today and I looked into the seasons for these bad animals and its from Oct 23 till feb 19 ;-( thats just not cool LOL and archery is from oct 2 - nov 13, hmmmmmmm LOL

I normally apply it everytime I refill the feeder.. about every 2 or 3 months.. I highly doubt it lasts that long, but most of time when they understand it's not easily accessible they just munch on what's on the ground then move along.

well I got one piece of PVC pipe installed and all legs coated with Vaseline, I took my drill so I could take the leg pieces apart to get all three legs in PVC but dumby me forgot that I needed a socket head not a screw driver head on the drill LOL, will probalby install the other two in a day or two, but with no camera in the woods ;-((((((((((((((((( the only tell weather it worked or not is if the solar panal is still plugged in cause they always rip it out so we will see, I really hope this works
