Title: Trapping coons
Post by: Prohunter270 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?

Also if you haven't already, start with the trappers education class and a trappers license.

In addition to searching this website you can find videos on Youtube Catchin' A Coon (in a live trap) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUCkJ6kUWJs#ws) Next join the Trapperman.com site  and look through the archives.  There is a lot of great info on everything there.
