Yeah right! As if spraying a racoon with water will dissuade it from ripping
into your garden.
Trapping is about the only way to deal with them (although I use a high voltage
electric fence around fruit trees at harvest time) and a quick submergence in
the trap (say 10 minutes or so) under water to make sure they are REALLY clean
before you 'release' them......
