Raccoon in my tree!! Help?!?
I have a huge pine tree in my driveway, and ive had a large raccoon living in it for a few months now.. Which didnt bother me except for the fact that my dogs go utterly insane when they hear it.. Buuut, now around 4 am every morning it makes this god awful screaming noise, it is soo loud!! Animal Control is taking their sweet *** time to come out, IF they do.. and i do not have a trap.. Does anyone know of a way to maybe get it to move or detour it out of my tree?? Please help!! My family is so tired lol

Spray it with the hose, put it n "jet" and scare it and spray it frewuently, so it no longer feels safe in its 'home'.

Don't scare it away. It has babies in that tree and that is what you are hearing. All animal control is going to do is come kill the mom and take the babies to a rehaber like me that is overflowing with babies as is. Just stick it out and the babies will grow up and leave. I am sure the raccoon is so sorry to have annoyed you, she has been kicked out of her own home by subdivisions and people who spray her with hoses.

U can try hosing it till it jumps down n leaves, but unless it can b taken far away it's likely to come back. That's labeled as his home and that's where he will b.
