How do I evict a mother raccoon and her newborns from under the house and not hurt the local cats?

Answer 1

Call the Department of Natural Resources or an animal control company. You could have them trapped, then carted off.

Answer 2

Welcome to my world heh

A year or so ago we had a family of raccoons in the wall of our house. Most exterminators suggested they didn't want to do much, because the last thing you want is abandoned baby raccoons or dead raccoons of any size stuck in/under your house. They suggested that once the babies were sufficiently old, they'd just move out on their own and we could seal it up.

Since we weren't that comfortable leaving raccoons in the wall of our house, we handled it ourselves using this stuff called "Raccoon Eviction Liquid". The makers didn't say what exactly this stuff is, but I feel pretty confident saying it involves one or more types of urine, and I can say for certain that it smells god awful. The smell of it convinces the mother it isn't anywhere she's comfortable raising babies, and she'll move them out. The first time we applied it, we didn't think it through well, and it just chased her deeper into our walls. But the second time there was a LOT of scrambling, and out they went. When we were convinced they were all out of the hole, we sealed it up, and problem solved.

Hope this helps. It was really quite unsettling until we got them moved out.

i does no longer want to take any possibilities of the raccoon attacking the cat somewhat if he replace into rabid. in case you do to no longer harm the raccoon you should purchase a stay seize (it is risk-free) from a feed shop. as quickly because it is captured you may call animal administration or another employer on your state which will come get the raccoon and relocate it to a distinctive place effectively (re-introducing to flora and fauna). My sister owned a raccoon as quickly as (got here across it whilst it replace right into a pair of day or 2 previous). They raised it around rabbits and cats and that they have been given alongside nicely. in spite of the shown fact that, whilst they attain puberty they do replace into very aggressive.

I guess I don't understand why they are a problem for you. Give her a little time and she'll leave on her own. Something about you and your home made her feel safe. Take it as a compliment.

Answer 5

Call the Audubon Society. They might be able to help. Your county extension service can be helpful, too.

Answer 6

make sure no local cats are inside, then set the house on fire

Answer 7

Smoke bombs will eliminate them from you area. The smell and smoke coverage will scare them and they will run for their lives.
