Raccoons and Gardens<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Why do raccoons love your garden? Because they are\nopportunistic feeders; they will eat meat, vegetables, fruit, grains, and even the\nCoco Crispies\u00e2  they find in the trash can. As omnivores,\nraccoons will take great pleasure in eating everything your garden has to\noffer, from herb and cabbages, to cucumbers, tomatoes, asparagus, carrots,\npotatoes, mild peppers, corn, and more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raccoon Control<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The best way to stop raccoons from pillaging your gardens\nevery night is to implement certain environmental modifications. First, plant\nthings that raccoons hate around the perimeter of your garden, such as spicy\npeppers, menthol, and marigolds. Then, you must remove all other attractions\nfrom your property that raccoons take interest in, namely food and water like bird\nbaths, pet food, and squirrel feeders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you have put these environmental modifications into\neffect, your next step is to consider some form of fencing around your garden.\nChicken wire works well, but many homeowners do not like the look. Another\noptions, as mentioned, is planting a fence of marigolds. Raccoons hate the sticky,\nprickly vines and foliage of marigolds, and will not try too hard to surpass\nthem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another option is professional raccoon control services. Not\nonly can a professional raccoon control company implement these same environmental\nmodifications for you, they can also ensure that your home and adjacent\nshelters (i.e. barns, sheds, garages, etc.) are not vulnerable to invasion.\nThey will inspect and seal all openings and vulnerable areas so that raccoons\ncannot enter inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
