A big racoon got in my attic a few ago so I set a live trap to catch it. All I caught at first was possums and I just took them go far away from where I live and released them. I found out that raccoons love marsh mellows so I baited the trap with marsh mellows and caught a huge boar coon the first night. I shot him in the head with a pellet gun and hauled him off for the possums/buzzards to eat.
