At our northern home we had a severe raccoon problem. I purchased a very large “have-a-heart” trap and baited it with peanut butter and sunflower seed and caught several of the pesky little buggers. Our neighbor, and several friends, have borrowed the trap and caught several as well. The traps work great, but there is still the issue of what to do with them after the catch. Let’s just say the most effective method isn’t consistent with the “have-a-heart” theme.
