I've got a raccoon that's eatin' all my dogs and cats' food.... 'possums I can whack with a bat, but, this coon is too fast for me...and, I certainly don't wanna break another appendage in my pursuit of animals....lol
Also, he/she's always here at night, so I can't shoot, as I'm night blind......

Any suggestions??

[slice slice baby]

Seriously? No one can tell me how to kill a 'coon?.......this guy is a real bugger!!!

[flounder]

Shotgun or Traps!!!!!

[roarintiger1]

Call a "Critter Gitter".

[Wilco98]

Set up a few traps for it.

You need a small animal cage baited with cat food. It might take a couple of night because the 'possums like it too. Then drop it in the pond and drown him. If you find that to inhumane, just shoot him through the bars. It will get your cage pretty messy though so have the garden hose handy

Slice, if after you drop the coon in the pond to give him a drink, walk away and come back in about 25-30 min. if you don't want to shoot'em. This is what I do with muskrats when they get in my pond.

[MCguy]

Fly bait and coke. Everything that drinks it will die though.

Slicer,
you could always give the Flound or myself a call.........we're known as having a steady hand and able to shoot straight.

[Wilco98]

I'd offer to come up and blast the varmint to kingdom come, but I haven't the time at the moment.

[Osu4me]

Set the trap, once he's caught take the coon to Ada or Beaverdam and set him free. Less messy that way!!

[Rocketman]

Fwiw........ Stinky's Annual beaver eating contest Will be held saturday march 3rd......... Hope to see everyone there again this year........

I would think the manager of your trailer park would be responsible for removing the varmit.
