Raccoon Repellent - Raccoons are smart enough to ditch your traps and probably survived your last animal control. These naughty yet disturbing animals can give you a lot of pain through distribution of deadly diseases such as rabies. So handling these animals with precautions and not killing your own pets is quite a task to do. Here we are sharing some natural and some artificial repellents which can help you get rid of the raccoons out there in your home, garden or backyard.

As the sensitive nose is considered the raccoons can be thrown out of your place through some kind of smells. One example is the scent of mint. Yes, raccoons can't bear the strong scent of mint and they choose to stay away from it. Then there are natural juices which you can spray over the area the raccoons use to come to. Raccoons prefer places where they can hide and steal food from there. So spraying such scents can help you get rid of them. There are some natural scent repellents available in the market such as:

Mint Granules:
This is a type of packed granules which has a strong smell that raccoons cannot bare it. Mixing these granules in the food kept in your garbage can make the raccoons run out of your place.

Pepper:
As pepper is having strong effect over nose and literally can make animals run away this natural element can be used to spray over the entrance used by the raccoon and the food they use to eat.

Chilies:
As addition to the pepper spray you can use the natural nose-burner to throw the raccoon out of your house.

Onion:
Onions makes you cry and they can also do the same for the raccoons around you. Proper addition of onion to the bait can make the raccoons not to touch it again and hopefully getting them out of your place.

Ammonia:
However the most repellents target the nose of the raccoons. Ammonia is having a strong smell and can cause the raccoons to have headache and make them run from that place.

However there are some artificial repellents in the market which promise you to help getting rid from the frustrating raccoons. But hold on most of them are using the same elements as mentioned above. And for the same natural thing they are charging you double than its original worth.

However as the demand is much more for the raccoon repellents there are people who just want your money in return of nothing. There are some toxic agents which can cause your pets to die. In addition to that they can also harm your children. The outrage of the annoying gas smell by the artificial repellents can give your family a headache. As the artificial electronic repellents are considered they are not safe to use. If some defects are happened to the device they can harm you.

Nature has the best solution to the most problems. And in case of the raccoons there are obvious solutions that can be used all it needs is right planning and implementation to be done. Taking care of the in house pets and children should be your prime focus while repelling the raccoons.
