Do you no wat to do for this: I hav a large raccoon (about 15-20 pounds) and we got a bungee cord AND moth flakes and it somehow got the bungee cord off and didn't mind the moth flakes. It is fearless. Have any suggestions?

RELOCATE IT?? How about...feeding it rat poison?

[WinterHaven]

Racoons have rabies. I would pass out if I see a racoon in my yard. It's full of rabies.

Piss around your compost pile. Cheap and easy.

Many places it is illegal to "relocate" vermin. Not to mention the ecological damage you'd be doing to the areas where you dump them. SImply dumping them in another community or into another animal's territory is unsound.

[lajollashores]
