Install heavy gauge wire mesh across all entrances to your attic to keep them out. If you suspect the raccoons are inside your attic, install a one-way trap door across the opening so they can get out but not back in. Arrange to have your attic insulation removed and new insulation installed.
If there is raccoon scat on your roof, chances are that they are also inside your attic. Once you apply the solution mentioned above they will look for another home and stop using the latrine on your roof. Carefully remove the scat as mentioned above to avoid infection.
You may find the raccoon latrine at the base of a tree, alongside your foundation, and in other locations around your yard. Start by removing all potential food sources from your yard. This includes your garbage, fruits from fruit trees, grubs in your lawn, etc. Consumers have used a number of approaches with varying success.
