Eye worms? Please enlighten me, never heard about that
My pleasure to enlighten;
Baylisascaris procyonis, common name raccoon roundworm; is a roundworm nematode. Infection of the eyes may result in permanent visual damage and loss. Raccoons therefore are important in maintaining the parasite, providing a source of infection for humans and other animals.

It's eggs are shed in the feces. About the size of a grain of sand. Getting one induced orally by touching something contaminated and getting it into your mouth. I bet there are thousands of roundworm eggs on that deck. They eggs live outside the host animal easily for a long period of time. Very hard to kill the eggs.

Last spring I caught 17 coon in three weeks and I took them a couple miles away and released them all alive but with a red tail I painted to see if they would come back, none of them did. All the neighbors shot there catches. They tell me that they will not make it in a new location. Not sure.

Did not watch the video but based on watching the youtube clips on buying fur at $3.50 each there is about $100 worth of fur on the porch. Can't buy much pet food with that amount of money. Wonder what the coon toilet looks like?

I can't remember if its this guy or another "coon whisperer" who had a video were he said he gets bit fairly regular in feeding them. I think that was another guy in either PA or MI. He didn't have as many on the porch at one time as this guy.
I wonder what mostly hot dog coon fat rendered down tastes like...?
