How to Keep Raccoons Away From Your Property <\/strong><\/h2>\n

It\u2019s helpful to begin your mission of keeping your property raccoon-free by securely storing trash cans and pet food indoors. If you leave pet food outside and it ends up being eaten without your knowledge, that\u2019s a key indicator that raccoons may be present on your property. Other signs include tracks or droppings. Securing the lids on your trashcans is a helpful way to be extra safe when storing your trashcans.<\/p>\n

Wondering what scent will keep raccoons away? Here\u2019s a list.<\/a><\/p>\n

Keep a Neat Property and Seal Entry Points<\/strong><\/h3>\n

While fruit that has fallen on the ground from your yard\u2019s fruit trees can be a pretty sight, cleaning and picking up any fallen fruit is going to decrease your odds of raccoons visiting your property. If your residence contains higher-risk areas for raccoons like gardens or compost piles, consider installing an electric fence to deter raccoons as traditional fences provide less protection.<\/p>\n

You can block off potential raccoon den sites by keeping your yard clean and sealing off potential entry points like your chimney, deck, and shed. People often use<\/a> hardwire mesh to seal off entry points.<\/p>\n
