Will this work to deter raccoons?

I have no idea if it will work with raccoons. Moreover, I cannot say that it really works with mice or squirrels either.

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.

I don't know. It smells pretty bad, so it might, but I only used it for mice. It did a great job for me on mice, but I was using it inside a garage, rather than outside.

I can't say for sure. It keeps raccoons n deer out OK. Not sure if it will scare them enough to keep them away. When the ground is wet, it hurts to touch it,even worse in bare feet.

I think so But if it's outdoors and you use catfood as bait you may get a raccoon

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.

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.

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.

Hi Michael,The SureFlap DualScan Microchip Cat Door does have increased security against raccoons as the external catch will prevent an intruder pulling the door open towards them.I hope that helps.Best wishes,The SureFlap Team

Not sure . Their are various frequency settings on it depending on the animal. Settings include deer, raccoons, skunks, rabbits, cats, dogs, rodents. The mount the device at the height from the ground specific to the animal you want to deter. Mine is mounted at the height of a walking cat, I still have squirrels in my yard.

I don't know - I have never seen a skunk around my house. I do know it works on raccoons to keep them out of the garbage.

I do not think so; those raccoons are pretty clever. The "lock" is a lift and release mechanism which I think they could get.

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 doubt it. Raccoons are a unique problem in that they seem to be very smart. I was not able to keep them out of my orchard of apple trees even though I had multiple strands of electric fence wire starting just above the ground and going up to a couple of feet above the ground. I have no idea how they managed to keep getting in but they did and got or ruined about 50% of my apple crop.

If your feeding birds with it, then I'm sure raccoons will try to get it. I have them here in the Pacific Northwest, and they DON"T get into them.....Just keep it up high and mount it on a side of a building. Something slick on the sides. THEY ARE A GREAT DEAL FOR THE MONEY,BOUGHT 4 OF THEM....

Hi Carey, I don't know about deer, but it does seem to deter racoons, and perhaps fox. It startled my grandchildren the first time as well. Cheers, Ed Peoples

I had no success with this deterring our cat at all. He just found it interesting. I put it outside (in a protected area) to deter the neighbor's cat from using our yard as his litter box...equally unsuccessfully. Maybe it works better on dogs?

It didn't work for skunks. It attracts cats like crazy! Don't know about raccoons, but I doubt it.

It did not help to get rid of opassom previously. This time I used it to help my male dog to mark only in the back yard. It did not help eather. Sorry could not help you with raccoon. It sounds that it may work. Good luck.
