  1. ask your local animal control for one…they’ll come and trap it for you.

  3. drive nails into a pvc tube short enugh for him to see the shiny stuff at the end of it, he will reach into the pvc to get the shiny stuf and his arm will get stuck.

  4. You need to take those ducks away now to a different location. What you do is first blow the head off of that raccoon and save your ducks. I actually live on a farm where we have geese and ducks. Trust me all that raccoon is going to do is eat them. Yes im serious. it is just terrible. But hurry and get them moved.

  5. Well, buy a humane trap, not one meant to kill. If we were meant to kill, we would have the claws and sharp teeth. Then put some tasty treats in the trap.

  7. Get a live trap and buy a small can of cat food to place in the back of it. We have a large duck farm and have caught and released 8 raccoons so far. We have not lost any ducks though because our pens are secure with netting over the top and fencing buried under the ground around the pens.

  8. You could buy a trap and then put cat or dog feed in it. Once you catch call somebody or deal with it yourself. This worked with my grandfather’s coon problem. Except when a kitten got in the trap but it was okay.
