I've never seen a raccoon dig holes, but armadillos are famous for that. I've stopped armadillos by sprinkling blood meal where they dig. I assume it would work for any digger. You can get it at garden centers and it's a great fertilizer. It doesn't smell great which is probably what the armadillos don't like about it.
There is none except to remove anything that draws raccoons to your yard. Keep trash cans securely lidded, leave no pet food outdoors, etc.
if it had feathers plucked it was most likely a raccoon
leave it alone
leave a trail of food out an open door.
No, the word 'raccoon' is a noun, a word for a type of mammal; a word for a living thing.A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence. The pronoun that takes the place of the noun raccoon is it (unless you know the gender of the raccoon, then it's he and him, or she and her).Example: A raccoon got into the trash can. It spread the contents all over the yard.

yes.
It can potentially transmit the raccoon roundworm eggs if present if the feces is somewhat dry and emits dust when disturbed. If cleaning raccoon feces from a yard or patio it is best to wear a dust mask to cover the nose and mouth.
Skunk, Opossum, Porcupine and Raccoon ...and people
Nothing will happen if nobody leaves trash bins unsecured or pet food outdoors. When the raccoon discovers there is no food, it will probably leave.
ask them to leave
The Raccoon is there because you have food around or/and shelter. Raccoons are very smart and go where their needs are met. Call your local animal shelter or wild life sanctuary to get help. They should have some good suggestions for you.
