missmy5.0 Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Anyone know someone that will take it out of there for me cheap? The wife said the 9mm was a no go in town and I'd rather not end up with rabies. Any help is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Cranium Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 I'm sure someone can loan you a live trap. Or you can probably pick one up cheap at Harbor Freight or Tractor Supply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Put a radio/boom box out there, crack the garage door about 12" and crank it up LOUD. They will HATE the sound, especially bass and run out. Do it at night and wait a day. Worked for us at my wife's office. Altnernative, buy a .22 or .177 Cal 1200ft/sec. air rifle for $150. I've popped a several over the years. You might have to climb up and get it as it will likely have a death grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Leave the doors open and wait. Else, .22 shot shells will get it moving along at a brisk pace without tearing too much shit up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unfunnyryan Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 capture the trash panda and train him to steal beer from other garages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstmg8 Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Noise and open door will work if you're against injuring/killing him. Otherwise, knock it in the head and throw it in the trash can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensan Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Take a train ride and find someone who needs their raccoon killed. That person can take care of yours, and you theirs, without any suspicion from police. The crimes would be completely unrelated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief8one Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I had the same issue with my large garage all summer with something digging underneath my concrete slab. I tried smoke bombs, live traps replant etc... put in a stereo let it run... no more holes under my garage. Worked for me good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grudes Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 If you trap him, cat food works well as bait, just make sure you take him far away. They will travel up to 20miles. Otherwise shoot it. They typically sleep during the day so you can sneak up on it, if you can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franchi Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I have a trap you can borrow if you would like, last week just got rid of a raccoon that had decided to take residence in my attic using it. Took all of one day to catch him. Trap works awesome, super easy to set and use. http://www.havahart.com/large-1-door-animal-trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I live in the city too so rather then shoot them I bash their heads in with either a ball bat or 2x4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakotart Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 If you do trap it, remember that relocation is not legal. " Nuisance or sick raccoons may be trapped without a permit, but it is illegal to live trap and relocate them to a new area. In order to prevent the possible spread of raccoon diseases in Ohio, all live trapped raccoons must be released again on the homeowner's property or humanely euthanized. Consult your district wildlife office for further information." http://wildlife.ohiodnr.gov/species-and-habitats/nuisance-wildlife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Take a train ride and find someone who needs their raccoon killed. That person can take care of yours, and you theirs, without any suspicion from police. The crimes would be completely unrelated. Haha @ OP First, ask yourself why it's there. Food or water? Remove it. Shelter only? Allow it to leave and fix how it got in there. Won't leave? Make it uncomfortable. It doesn't want to be around you any more than you, it. Just be sure it has an obvious, easily accessed escape route. I just cannot fathom why so many of you have such a hard time dealing with wildlife. And those of you who think you don't, it's generally because you think shooting everything is the answer. lol Trapping is another alternative that was mentioned here. Even if you have to release it on your own property, chances are it's not going to want back in your garage. (Again, as long as you've removed the reasons that attracted it.) It's just a damn raccoon. Shoo it out of there for shit's sake. Shoo not shoot. Seriously, good luck in your efforts. I hope you find a humane way to solve your problem, if you even still have it by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I don't see why racoons would be viewed as anything but a pest, and they should be killed. If nothing as for population control, there is no shortage of the little bastards. Nobody says shit about killing mice or rats, it's just a big furry rat, kill it. No issue again for you or someone else, no spread of desease, none of that shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
