A Havahart trap is a good idea, too, but you might want to have your local

I can get weird too, I am not afraid of raccoons. I would just trap
them and release then a few miles away. The issue is, are there so
many local raccoons that trapping them is a waste of time? Do they
migrate? For example, obviously, trapping birds is a waste of time
since they propagate everywhere. But, if I could trap, say, 3-5
raccoons, would it actually help?

you should be afraid of them, you will never win in a tussle with one,
trapping might be worthwhile but relocating them is illegal in many
places.
