At least four resident have complained to Fort Myers animal control officers about the break-ins. One woman says they ate two loaves of bread and spilled beer on her floor when they broke into her home. Marianne Kinzer said: "I'd like to teach them to do laundry."

Residents think the raccoons used to live on a 56-acre former farm where builders have started construction work. "Ever since then these animals have nowhere to go, of course, and they're coming into our homes," Kinzer added.
