How do you get rid of a raccoon?

Answer by  pixiecat (250)

One of the best and Eco friendly ways of getting rid of raccoons is by simply secure any type of waste or anything that might be considered food by this animal. Of course if the problem persists it is best to call for a company that specializes in capturing them.

The most humane way is using a cage trap. Inside the cage, place food to attract the raccoon (they eat anything). The raccoon smells the food; enters the cage; and the door shuts not allowing him to escape. Take the raccoon somewhere he can survive/far away from you! It works!

Make sure all garbage and pet food is removed from the area. Some people swear that raccoons don't like the smell of ammonia or moth balls.

The best way would be to hire someone who specializes in wild animal capture. Raccoons can be dangerous and you should never attempt to capture them yourself. Call a wildlife officer or game warden in your area for assistance.
