They can undo twist-ties, trigger the trap and shake it so the food falls out, pull hanging bird feeders and suet to the tree trunk and feast on it. Yes, when it comes to food, they are smarter than we are!!! And yes, it is usually more than one - often an entire family. I plan to have critter solutions help me move them to a forested area!
im glad ur wife made u be nice...i love raccoons they r adorbable...and thats so mean wanting to make a hat out if it....in a parallel universe that raccoon is making a hat out of u o.0...
We have a mother raccoon that keeps on coming into the wall of our house so we cut a hole in the wall and removed the babies but the mother still comes. We bought a trap and the third time we set it we caught her but she bent the wire holding the back panel in place and escaped! We ordered another trap though, a professional one.
You are definitely not smart. I keep raccoons out of bins and garbage cans with a couple simple bungee cords. Everyone knows they raccoons are killed when caught. I find that despicable. And you too for a matter of fact. You're dumb. And cruel.
Depends how you look at it. I called the city government (animal control) and they killed it. They told me it is their policy to kill all wild animals trapped or caught in city limits. They euthanize them with a painless shot not gun shot but needle.
No, I didn't make of hat of it. If it would have been brown and black, I would have made a hat out of it. I've never seen a black and white Raccoon before. A few years ago when I was hunting I had a chance to shot a raccoon while it was sleeping in a tree, and it would have made an excellent hat. But to me there would have been no honor in shooting a sleeping raccoon and then wearing it on my head. Currently I wear a rabbit on head (but only in the winter)
The trash was secured in a 75 gallon hard plastic garbage can supplied by the goverment. The dexterity of a Raccoon's hand rivals that of the human hand. Aside from putting a pad lock on the garbage can (which would be ridiculous) nothing can keep them out. They simply remove the cover.
If the raccoon is getting into the garbage can, its NOT secure, even if it's from the government($6,000 garbage can?). Try a tight bungee cord or chain or keep your trash can in your garage until trash day.
@sherik5 - By all means, let us put our 75 gallon garbage cans inside our garage. Nevermind the smell of rotting garbage all week. We have to think of the pests first. After all, we are invading their space, right? Or perhaps, we should build or buy a large locking enclosure and use that?
I too have a raccoon problem - they aren't getting in my trash, but they are a danger to my pets and children and they must go. I had one 3' from our dog last night at 10pm.
cake moight of worked but the best thing possible is sardeens (i live on a farm in canada and we catch them by the truck load)

You don't have to have trash in your yard to have raccoons they love earthworms and digging up your lawn to fine them
