I feel bad for those poor animals. Poor babies, i can't imagine the pain they must endure.

I've caught 40 raccoons in a year and a half. Except the big one. He knows not to step on the trip but we''ll see after I try your method!

thank you caught the raccoon last night

I hate raccoons

I’d really like to know what sound your using to attract them

Have you tried male raccoon urine with mother raccoons?

Easiest way to tell, besides the difference in pitch, is the duration of the noise. Frogs will make noise throughout the day for up to an hour each occurrence, while baby racoons really only make noise 5 to 15 minutes at a time, only two or three times per day.

Good to know I won't try mothballs

How far up the trap do you place the bar? ALso, I had one get trapped, but it escaped- I think it had an accomplice. I've added velcro to the setup to maybe make it less easy to push the trap ope from teh outside? Also, I use a metal tin, they take it out. Can I wire that to the base so that its contains the bait?

Thank you! Exactly the information I was looking for.

I've been wasting bacon and pieces of cantaloupe for months....lol Thank you for this tip. Raccoons have been destroying my lawn digging everywhere.

Thank you for this video. I’ve been haunted by a supposed video of a guy with children at his farm to see the animals. I was looking for nice videos to brighten my day and what saw I can’t handle. This guy starts talking and then the chickens start going crazy in a tiny pen off of a coop, he takes off running telling the children to stay back. He acts like he’s firing a weapon without sound and there lays the animal. It’s a raccoon. Then acting astonished a raccoon could get into his chicken pen and I shut it off. Just kept going back to the raccoon and his astonishment. Obviously it wasn’t a well constructed pen and carrying a weapon as opposed to scaring it off and to trapping and relocating was just shocking. We would scare off predators with loud banging noises and then fix any problems with their house. We never had to kill another animal. We had foxes and weasels everywhere. I’m haunted by it because I’m raising a baby raccoon when its mother was killed with Highway construction. He couldn’t even walk yet. I’ve had him since he was just around the 2 week point in development. He just turned 7 weeks and I’m having troubles getting him weaned. Then I was going to take him to a rescue. After seeing that video today, I’m so worried. They spend a year with their mom’s learning how to live. He’s imprinted on me and it’s getting so hard after seeing someone do what he did today and just panning at the raccoon and to his astonished face and back again a few times. It’s not the raccoon fault. Right? Maybe I’m just too vested knowing how long they need help to become independent. But please know I’m so thankful you do what you do. Trapping and relocating. This video really showed a lot with extensive damage and poor construction as well as neglect. We never had problems with any eaves or roofing. We even had pens for different types of chickens and their purposes. Our chicken house was made out of an old shack we moved in from 1 mile away and put on a new foundation. They all had free roam of their territories which were huge. Again thank you for this video. It’s helped me some with my fear.

i hate them

Those green tube traps won’t hold the big skunks. I’ve seen where they go in and trigger it but their tail is still out. They hold the door up with their tail and back out. I think the 30” or longer traps are better

Use "RED" tape for poly sheets sold at home improvement stores to mask the area. Add a concrete stucco repair but wet it with a bonding additive by brush. Sold for about $8 a quart in the concrete dept. apply with a water damp cheap brush (They can be washed) The top coat saved from the original application can last years if sprayed with nitrogen from a small rented tank. You get your deposit back when returned. Make sure the seal is clean and snapped on tight and it will last for years. Towel on or spray with drywall hopper, then trowel/ rubber float the spot to match texture. I don't do this for a living but my last 7 year job had me teaching 4hr tech seminars in 7 states. A lot of hotel time. I simply watched new go up, sometimes for insulation value, but I ask questions. Western fires and smoke have driven these woodpeckers East to the Midwest and further. Instead of food, a home is what they want. My Daisy BB rifle doesn't know the difference.

nice

What is the best bait for gray squirrels?

YES I HAD A TROUBLE MAKER HE WAS # 4 HE WOULD STEAL THE BAIT NO MATTER HOW SENSITIVE I WOULD MAKE IT. Steal the bait & Trip the trap I was un-nerved after several several times SO I TRIED YOUR SOLUTION BINGO THE VERY FIRST TRY HE DIDNT GET AWAY THIS TIME BOY WAS HE PISSED HE ACTUALLY WRECKED THE TRAP BY PULLING UP HALF OF THE TRIP PAD BUT TO ME IT WAS WORTH IT

Do you usually try a trap on the roof before using a comstock?

this is very helpful. curious tho, why you didnt consider using ridge-guard instead? or do you think that both GAF Cobra Line and Ridge-Guard should be installed? Thank you for making these videos!

What kind of screws/caulk do you use when repairing the shingles after screwing into them?

Used your technique, i caught the 1st one 2 days ago, i put the trap back just in case, i caught a second one today 😭

Thanks for your suggestion here. This was very valuable.

Maybe one of the tree frogs made a run for it???😂

Nice, did you have to screw the board on which the trap was set to the roof?

What tool r u using for climbing rooftop ? I saw on ur video a blue tube that u grabbed and stepped on I'm interested please n thank you

Bye bye exhaust

I know who that was! The "big T" YUCK

I wish you lived in my area. The groundhog has several holes under my shed and I am too old to do all the excellent deterrents that you put in place. Today, he climbed a tree where I have placed a suet feeder!

Someone doesn’t sound very happy!😂😅

This is incredibly useful information! Thanks!

Very clever. Will use

What do you do with them when you catch them?

What to do when you can’t trap the mother raccoon from an attic. We have her on camera reaching in and taking bait.

I like the videos, please invest in a wireless microphone, many videos are hard to hear you, this one I hear the squirrel chatter far better than your voice

I see one bat. Cute 🥰

He's correct! As a handyman I've done a lot of critter trapping... 👍

Very interesting

Is he a baby? He’s so small

how to you transport and release the skunk without getting sprayed?

also tape the back half of the cage

This guy is the coolest guy ever!

I have been sprayed in the face by a skunk...instantly vomited by reflex. Wasn't allowed back into the house until I was hosed down with a mixture of Hydrogen peroxide, lemon juice and Dawn dish soap. That actually works.

Thank you 😂❤😢

Be careful not to use too much foam because it will expand and can press the surrounding stucco walls outward and cause a bulge which you will then need to cut out and then you have a hole 4x the size that you need to patch. I know this from experience. Use just enough foam to fill the hole and definitely use the metal wire mesh like he did here.

Poor little guy

Appreciate the efforts. Great video. Im curious if this worked. Any issues since?

Looks like the hole was a slot cut for a ridge vent, but seems like unnecessary for that very short ridge, and there is no vent there, likely because it made no sense. It did make the squirrel's job easier, though.

Looks like that slot was cut too far. I think the roof vent should have overlapped onto solid wood at the end.

just found your channel, and glad I did. You gave me good info on how to deal with a flying squirrel problem I have. Question., I have a lot of tall pine trees that are close to my house as you showed in a previous session. I've been seriously thinking of taking them down to prevent them from gliding onto the house. What's your recommendation? Thanks
