Will this work to repel racoons?

Unless you're being attacked by a lot of them, I wouldn't use this. Use other ways to keep them out of your garbage.

It will chase anything with tear ducts away,even humans if the wind is right.

I would think if it can repel a bear it wouldn't have a problem repelling a raccoon.

We used Shake Away to discourage rabbits and possums from our flower beds. We haven't seen a raccoon in our area for quite some time. Altho, it has been my experience in the past that the raccoons that hung around our cabin in WA were not at all afraid of a fox. They were bigger.

I have no idea what you are asking. I use my can for keeping chicken feed and unusually adept predators; namely raccoons, OUT. It works.

sorry, don't know. I returned this item because it didn't work for raccoons.

I have never had a raccoon in my house or attic but I'd imagine it might work on raccoons if set on the highest frequency. This is the best product around as far as I'm concerned. I have recommended it to all my friends and neighbors and not a single complaint.

Chipmunks, rats, squirrels. I do not know about raccoons but I would think so. It also works on opossums even though they are not technically a rodent.

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!

You can fine tune it to detect racoon size animals. It might work, as long the the spray is directed to the location where they are. On high, the jet is very powerful.

Yes. It might be a good ideal if keeping away from raccoons. That way they can't empty the container

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).

absolutely! We used it around the koi pond to keep out racoons, they were "buzzed" twice and now they never come back. Great training tool.

Yes! The noise this Sentinel makes will scare off animals! Place it where the plants are, pointing it forward to detect any animals.

I don't know. I bought it for Herons. I don't know if racoons are afraid of water.

For the most part, yes. Mine is effective to date against raccoons and squirrels, although at some point I would not be surprised to see a raccoon put it on the ground. Many squirrels have jumped on it with no discernible spillage. A worthwhile investment with excellent and personal customer service.

I'm not sure, it does not work for raccoons or possum's, but before I put them up I did have Owls, but they never bothered my chickens or ducks, I have not heard them at night either, so it may work to scare them away. all I can say is buy one and try it. Anything is better than not trying.

I have put bricks on top of the lid to discourage raccoons in the past. Bungee cords help. Now I have a chicken wire enclosure. If the contents are strictly plant material it also helps discourage them.

Gutter Brushes would work as a deterrent, but I don't believe they would be sufficient to stop a determined rodent.
