Buy or rent a big have a heart trap, bait it with cat food and haul off the
critter after you catch it. It is recommended that you carry it a far
distance. Keep in mind that these big guys can be dangerous so careful.
They can be very destructive to properly. My mother in law lost part of her
roof to raccoons trying to remove it to gain access to her house. They did
nest in her chimney and raised a family. They started on the new roof and we
decided to take action, better for her and the raccoons.
In some states it is unlawful to trap them without destroying them, so
.......what the state does not know won't hurt them.
