Yes, raccoons are vertebrates. Raccoons are mammals and all mammals are vertebrates because they have backbones (vertebral columns) with their internal skeleton, a main characteristic of vertebrates.
While I am sure some will disagree with me, raccoons are not really vemin. Rats and mice usually fall into that classification. Raccoons would better be called pests as the interests of raccoons frequently are at odds with the interests of humans.
Snakes are reptiles. They eat vermin.

Raccoons are considered vermin mainly because they will eat rotten food and dead animals. They have a chance to catch diseases as a result. They will also kill small animals like rabbits or chickens.

Insects, pests, vermin, rodents, etc are basic exclusions of an insurance policy.

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.
No. Vermin are usually small to medium sized pests of the mammal class rodentia. This means that while mice, rats, and raccoons are vermin, birds such as the woodpecker are not.
