Default RE: What works best for raccoons?

HNI Visitor Hi;
When I was doing animal control this time of the year. Most baits with a strong fish odor seemed to work the best. Sun rendered fish oil, or shellfish oil works extremely well. Also Sardines put into a blender and made into a paste will also work. You may also try something along the line of a sweet smell, something with anise in it will work. Hope this helps you out some. And good luck!

I agree, fish baits work the best. I ussaully keep some panfish in the freezer from summer fishing trips and when I' m ready to use them I' ll let them set out for a day. If they turn too ripe they usually attract opossum more than coon. Biggest I' ve every caught in PA was 33lbs.
