Raccoons (2 Viewers)

If you have a raccoon problem, get a dog. If the dog becomes a problem, get a tiger. If the tiger becomes a problem get an elephant. If the elephant becomes a problem get a mouse. If the mouse becomes a problem trap some wild raccoons, they are great at keeping pesky rodents away.
 
Start taking some heavy dumps under the dock and confuse them. :shrug:

human odor doesnt deter them. Neither do small pets. The best way is still not to store pet food outside.
 
Just set something like this up, throw some python code for it to identify raccoons (although most of what I've seen will probably target your cat as well).




I started building out something like this to shoot water at squirrels.


Motion detector sprinkler system.
That's exactly what I was thinking after seeing that video. Just run a hose out there with a motion activated valve to spray water on em. I'm not certain if it will drive them off or treat them to a shower tho.
 
Killing a few won't discourage the rest. You have to put their heads on pikes around the perimeter so they know you mean business.
Maybe 20 years ago that would work, with modern raccoons you need to crucify them upside down to get the message across.
 
Can't remember what kind of pest my neighbor was trying to get rid of, but he had some kind of recording of an owl hooting that he played on a loop at night.

Best part was, the hooting attracted real owls. The owls stayed around for a few days after he stopped playing the hooting.

I have an old Hootie cd, I’ll just play that all night.


My neighbors will love it.
