If you find a raccoon in your trash can, first ensure your safety by keeping your distance and avoiding startling the animal. Gently encourage it to leave by making noise or shining a light, but do not attempt to touch or corner it. Once the raccoon has exited, secure your trash can with a lid or store it in a garage or shed to prevent future visits. If the raccoon does not leave or appears injured, consider contacting local wildlife control for assistance.
