I live in the country outside of Sebastopol, and have a family of raccoons living under my house. They get in and out through an opening (a vent grate) that is under a very low deck and makes getting to the opening inaccessible, other than tearing up the deck, which I fear I may have to do. Has anyone done any trapping or used any local service to deal with this situation? Also, once trapped, what does one do with a live raccoon?
I'd love to hear any stories from anyone who has dealt with this - thanks!
