I have a raccoon problem climbing a palm tree, crossing my patio screen, doing his business in my gutters. Will this work for getting rid of them? Or any other suggestions?

Raccoons not likely to avoid fox urine. They are too aggressive. Like all wild creatures the animal is looking for food. If its food source can be eliminated that would discourage the animal from taking up residence.

I kind of doubt it because I don't think fox are natural predators of raccoons, so the scent of fox urine probably wouldn't bother them much.

I doube it will work. I used it to scare rabbits and squirrels from the yard. It works for a couple of days, then they came back. As long as they have a nest nearby, they will get used to the smell in a few days.

I can only answer for myself it got rid of ours a couple years ago have not had any other problems

I doubt very much that fox urine will have any effect on raccoons. They are not afraid of a fox. If you cannot trap them using conventional animal traps, (they seem wise to most traps unless you bait the trap with salami) then possibly coyote or feline urine might keep them away. We had a family of them line up looking into our dining room thru the sliding glass door begging for food. Even my 90 lb. lab was afraid of them. Keep your distance because they can be very dangerous. Good luck!

It seems to keep all kinds of critters away. I used it around my garden and works great, i then started to spray around my garbage cans and they don't seem to be bothered by anything anymore. I am not sure if it was coons or possum getting in trash but it doesnt happen anymore. I went straight to their website and called them and they sold me a concentrate bottle that should make about 5 gallons of this stuff. It was a little pricey but only stuff i ave found that works this well.

I might be being played however, I do not, and could, have trouble with raccoons. I do use the product shown on the left of the screen. Sweeney's Mole and Gopher tool. It works for me. I have sent it to friends in other states and it works for them.

It worked very well for our dog, however the noise it makes is not very loud. I would say that for racoons, sure, but as far as panthers and bears are concerned absolutely not, I wouldn't chance it at all for panthers and bears. However, if you're looking for something of that sort, REI sells bear repellant. And I know mace can work very well (if this is a camping trip or the like).

This is not an answer. I just want to see DualScan respond to Pastii who noted that a raccoon did get through it. I bought the "regular" door and it presented no problem at all to a raccoon which is why it received a one-star review. This product was recommended, but appears to be just as useless at preventing raccoon entry. So, SureFlap, care to offer a guarantee that it keeps raccoons out?

I am so sorry I can't provide any help to you. We bought this item to repel the neighbors goats. I don't know if this repellent worked or not as the neighbor decided to start penning his goats at the same time as I made this purchase. :/ I bought a different brand to discourage deer from eating my garden and it did work. I would recommend giving this product a try.

I can't imagine a raccoon being able to climb that far onto this. We've never seen any raccoons on it. The pole isn't that thick for their big paws. Squirrels have no trouble climbing it though. We will have to buy a squirrel baffle for our feeder still.

The pole is only about 2" in diameter. The baffle is wider at the top, maybe 5-6 inches in diameter, and tapers down to about 3". I definitely think it would stop raccoons since the squirrels can't jump high enough to get over the baffle. I doubt they would either. I've had this up since March of 2011 and nothing has raided it yet!

Yes it really does....we live in a heavily wooded area and were bothered by raccoons...they will clean out a large bird feeder overnight!!! So I put a woodlink torpedo on all 3 of our bird feeder poles....no more raccoons...it is amazing.....

I originally purchased this product as a solution to a rat infestation. I live in the country, surrounded by grain fields and every fall I get a migration of rats. This product completely, and efficiently repelled any unwanted boarders. I've found it repels squirrels as well but have not had it long enough to honestly know if it works on skunks too. It does warn not to use it around cats and dogs so I assume it aggravates larger animals as well. I purchased two, one for each floor of the house and have been vermin free since.

I use the product to trap insects crawling up my fruit trees. First, you wrap the tree trunk with the tape and then smear on the goop. Judging from how hard it is to remove from your hands, a squirrel should be at least highly annoyed.

Hi Aubin, sorry I am late with this response. I have used this item for inhouse only. I keep it mainly for rats and mice which knock on wood has solved my problem. Also works for spiders but I highly doubt this is powerfull enough to work on raccoons ------I don't think those guys are bothered by anything. You can use them in a garage but I think the capacity of what they keep away is limited. These are great for inhouse-----I do change them every 5-6 months.

Hi Fade! Well, I too have a problem with skunks, raccoons, and squirrels, and using this product seems to deter them so I keep using it even though I would prefer that they not visit at all. I use it where I might have just planted bulbs since they seem to enjoy them as much as I do and around flowers that I like and so do they like coreopsis and lupine. So I guess the answer is that it works but you would need to reapply from time to time. John

We bought it hoping it would repell Armadillos, it didn't. Have no idea about raccons and skunks but spray kept cats & dogs out of our open beds.

This is what I know. The Frostfire is located at the front of the home. There have been no raccoons sighted since purchase of Frostfire. I have sighted raccoons in the rear of my home where Frostfire has no sensing due to distance and the home blocking the line of sight. I believe it would work against raccoons.

yes this works great for skunks, at least here in texas where we have foxes too, we have mobile homes and when the skunk decides to make his nest under them let me tell you its tough gettin em out. you can use old panty hose and make balls of this and throw them under the mobile home and sprinkle it around the perimeter and they will be GONE we've been using this product for years and it WORKS, now after a while the smell goes away and they will come back but then another treatment of this, and they're hasta la vista baby

Hi Vickie, I used this to keep squirrels away from my car engine and it worked. I also sprayed it around my tree and for quite awhile the yard was void of birds and critters. we had fox living in the area and even they stayed away thinking another fox had marked its territory so I would think coyote's would also stay away thinking a territory was marked by a fox unless coyote's hunt fox which I have Know knowledge of here in my part of New Jersey. Not sure I have helped but maybe I gave some information of value.
