Trapping coons
« on: January 06, 2014, 07:55:53 PM »
I've never trapped before, but want to get started! In the creek behind my house there are so many raccoons that they are becoming a problem! How do I do it and want kind of traps?

Harbor Freight carries coon traps, both single and double door for $21 to $25.

In addition to searching this website you can find videos on Youtube Catchin' A Coon (in a live trap) Next join the Trapperman.com site  and look through the archives.  There is a lot of great info on everything there.
