Default Raccoon Problem

I pulled up last night and there were 8 raccoons under my ma's car. They have been tearing apart our garbage for a few weeks now, and I didn't realize there were so many of them. Does anyone have any suggestions for "removal" of these critters?

thanks

Waite in the car untile they are under it, then crank up and run them over.

Or call animal control.
Tell them that you think they have raybies, they will come running.
