94extreme Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 lol.. thanks guys.. we'll try some of these things tomorrow.. i am pretty sure there are at least a couple of them up there as it seemed they had a fight at one point. fighting already.. after just one day in.. great roomies they are.. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Pickles Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) Maybe something irritating could cause them to find new residence. Pepper spray, a spray bottle of bleach or ammonia (not both! ), etc., as long as it won't get into the air inside to bug you. Or, maybe a semi-auto CO2 BB gun? My brother had one, possibly a Crossman (?) he got for like $40, and it could so some pretty decent damage quick. Hit and run, hit and run!

MadManMike Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) i am in an urban environment so i can't just unload on them. Since when has that stopped any one? CB .22lr .... sub sonic 700fps... ruger 10/22 .... all you can hear is the racking of the slide. And the falling of their bodies from my..oops I mean from your attic..

Destro Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 I saw a show on Discovery channel about getting rid of raccoons. One person had them in their attic and they called in a professional. They found where they were coming in and basically put a one-way door on the opening. That way they could leave but could not get back in. After they were all gone then they sealed up the hole. Other than that, the presence of a dog was about the only other thing that worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unccpathfinder Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Those things get vicious I don’t know if a pellet gun would bring one down.. mabey if you pump it ten times the one I just borrowed from a guy at work is a break action and I swear its almost got the punch of a .22...too bad the dog killed 2 rabbits and the others stay in hiding now...those lil bastards have killed our front yard and now attacked the back... you can get a trap...I would get them out ASAP b.c. like squirls (sp?) and possums and all other animals they will get in there and screw up the insulation and chew the electrical wires and possibly burn down the house...thats what happened to our house like a week after we sold it...squirls got in there and chewed through some wires got himself electrocuted and burnt down the house dont let them get near you they will tear you up their claws and teeth are very sharp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
