Coyote Urine and Dispensers Raccoon repellents can be highly effective. But they vary a lot, and certain ones tend to do some jobs better than others. So you should try to choose the repellent best suited to the task at hand. Coyotes treat raccoons as big wandering pot roasts and devour lots of them. So when coyote urine is around, raccoons tend to go elsewhere. Raccoons also have a refined sense of smell far more delicate than ours. So a small supply of coyote urine spread around a yard can be undetectable to people while scaring the dickens out of raccoons and other medium to large critters (up to and including deer) that coyotes hunt. Coyote urine’s big disadvantage is that it doesn’t last. Rain washes it out, and in 2 or 3 weeks it is gone and the raccoons have returned. Therefore, this repellant must frequently be renewed. It can be made to last longer by deploying an outdoor hanging bottle dispenser (the one offered below, product RUD-23, keeps the scent potent for a month) or plastic capsules planted in the ground. The less obtrusive capsules (product RUD-24) generally keep the repellent active for at least one month, sometimes up to two. Simply fill the capsule (each holds a twentieth of an ounce of urine), cap it, carry it to the place you want it, undo the plastic cap, and poke the pointed end into the ground until the top of the capsule is even with the soil’s surface. To make this really effective, the capsules should be placed in a line and situated about a foot apart, which makes them well-suited to guarding flower gardens and other small areas. They do a less reliable job of protecting vegetable gardens or trash areas where there is a good food source, because this gives the raccoons or other animals an ongoing incentive to explore–which may cause them to realize there are no coyotes, and hence over time they may come to ignore the smell.

Shake-Away™ is a more refined form of urine that comes as a powder or granules. The Large Animal Granules are made with coyote urine and, in addition to protecting against raccoons, also protect against deer, elk, armadillos, javalinas and wild pigs. The Commercial Blend is a mixture of fox, bobcat and coyote urine and protects against all the above animals as well as smaller animals like squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, opossums, porcupines, woodchucks, ground hogs, prairie dogs, skunks, gophers and domestic cats. When applied to exposed outdoor areas Shake-Away™ needs to be replenished every week or two, and also needs to be replaced after a heavy rain. This product lasts 4 to 6 weeks when used indoors or in outdoor areas protected from the weather. To apply it in areas like attics, basements, garages, sheds, greenhouses, the ground underneath buildings, etc. place or hang a powder pack in each 10-foot x 10-foot area to be protected or put two or three ounces on a paper plate and locate one plate in each 10-foot x 10-foot area to be protected. You can also place 2 to 3 ounces of Shake-Away™ in cut-off pieces of nylon stockings with the ends tied. If the area to be protected is hard to reach, toss one of the powder packs or stocking balls into each 10-foot x 10-foot area. Keep in mind that coyote urine may not keep hungry raccoons away from established food supplies–so that Get Away® and (especially) Ropel® are the first choices for preventing attacks on garbage, while the best defender of stocked fish ponds is an electric fence. However, urine alone is unlikely to evict raccoons from a well-established nest. It's much more effective to install an Evictor strobe and drive them out of their nest or trap and remove them. After eviction (and after all possible re-entry holes are plugged) deploy Shake-Away™, Critter Ridder or ultrasonic devices to discourage re-infestation. One 20-ounce container holds enough to create a protective strip one foot wide and 600 feet long around the perimeter of an area to be protected. The 12 lb container creates a protective strip one foot wide and 5,760 feet long.
This versatile raccoon and squirrel pest repellant (a sprayable liquid mix of mustard oil and chile extract in a vegetable base) works both by odor and by taste. So it is good at discouraging raccoons and opossum attacks on garbage and can keep these animals from digging in gardens, lawns, and landscaped areas. It resists washing off, and its pleasant lemon scent is inoffensive to people.
Critter Ridder repels by scent and taste and contains a formula of oil of black pepper, piperine and capsaicin. The granules are most useful indoors when hung in mesh bags or set out on paper plates in areas like the attic (or wall voids), basements, storage areas, sheds and barns that were once infested with raccoons. Indoors they wil last up to 3 months. Outdoors they can be used to sprinkle small areas of lawn and garden beds for spot treatment in problem areas. The ready to use and concentrate liquids are ideal for preventing digging in lawns, garden or landscaped areas. It is also good at protecting garbage bags from predation. Not recommended for use on tender plants. Lasts up to 30 days so be prepared to reapply with some frequency.
Ro-pel® gives a harmless but very bitter taste to all chewables and edibles that you want to protect. This product has a well-deserved place in the work of repelling not just raccoons but also squirrels and woodchucks/ground hogs, and a further list of interlopers including beavers, cats, dogs, birds, mice, opossums, rats, and others. Use Ro-pel® to treat areas where they have been digging, things they have been chewing (where you want them to stop), and entrances and exits to formerly infested areas once you have plugged them up. Ro-pel® also protects seeds and bulbs. A simple soaking for one minute in Ro-pel® before planting will make your seeds and bulbs unpalatable to foraging animals.
This repellent, designed for spraying over a fairly large area, discourages raccoons, moles, voles, gophers (pocket gophers), squirrels, armadillos, etc. from digging up your lawn or gardens by giving the sprayed soil a bad taste. A castor oil extract, Whole Control is non-toxic and biodegradeable and won’t harm plants, turf, or soil. It coats food sources and causes upset stomach that conditions nuisance animals not to return. The container comes with a hose-end sprayer for easy spray dispersal.
