How to Identify and Get Rid of Raccoons

Use a Have a Heart trap with tuna fish for bait. Since itâs illegal to trap and relocate, you can easily shoot them once they have been caged. No worries that theyâll be returning unless you have really poor aim.
After coming home one evening to find a raccoon in the process of killing my chickens, I don't find them to be cute at all. I tried lights but they still came around. So I moved on to other measures. I find that the most sure for way to get rid of them is to trap and kill. I live in the country so I dispose of them by leaving them for the buzzards.
this part of the article is wrong:
Plant enough corn for man and beast alike.
it doesn't matter how much you plant, they don't even eat much of it it they just enjoy stepping it into the mud and they can wreck a whole field of it in no time. planting more will not help.
I agree, it does not matter how much you grow they will destroy it. I planted 3000 plants last year and didnât get one ear of corn. I used live traps and relocated to no avail. I will trap and kill this year. I had to pay last year to get rid of most of critters and totally makes you not want to grow your own food! Not a fan of raccoons or groundhogs!
