I have a semi-outdoor shop and am learning to keep stuff put up! I had a new stick of pink scratchless buffing compound go missing, I found a tiny piece of it with teeth marks all over it and raccoon tracks next to my KMG! Something also broke into my metal shed and bent the door, I have no idea what an animal would want in there for.

Last week a bear ransacked my trash, now raccoons are stealing my compound! What's next, chipmunks stealing my files?

I have a lock box and that is where I'll keep the buffing stuff! I hope to get a small shop built before raccoons start gnawing at my buffer wheels. There must be tallow in the pink compound, they didn't touch the green.

Once a bunch of raccoons broke through a screen and were in my kitchen eating cat food, one of my cats was sharing a bowl with them! They broke through a skylight once by prying it open... what did they have repelling gear or something?
 
It might not be animals.
Remember the shoemaker and the elves?
Play your cards right and you might be able to recruit a little extra help around the shop.
.....or not.
 
the chipmonks here are stealing the insulation from underneath my house and building nest in the truck and car air cleaner .
 
Shadow LOVES Polish-O-Ray compound from Brownell's... if I charge the wheel and walk away for a minute with the compound sitting there--- it WILL walk off (on four furry legs) LMAO
