Raccoons are not a rodent. They are a species in their own separate family named Procyonid. The term "vermin"(or varmint) is given to various animal species regarded as nuisances, especially those associated with carrying disease. Raccoons may be considered vermin by some, particularly in urbanized environments because they get into trash cans and otherwise make themselves a nuisance. You would not want one to get into your house, they can make a big mess.
