Super Soakers


Super Soakers don't look like real firearms, because that would be stupid.  But the battery-operated ones do look like Warhammer 40,000 bolters.   Unfortunately, they're not quite powerful enough to hit a raccoon on a fire escape three stories above the ground.

 

I am married to a woman who says things like, "On your way back from the grocery store, pick up a Super Soaker to see if we can't squirt the raccoon."

 

Not because she imagines that it would make the beast move on.  Just because she thinks it would be funny.

A garden sprayer with a canister that you pressurize by pumping (often sold for spraying trees) might work....

I like your Lady! She thinks along the same lines as I. :o)

And for fun, go up on the roof and drop water balloons of the "little Bandit".

raccoons? still? haven't they gotten the idea yet that they are not welcome? How are Nicky and Nora at raccoon hunting?

Lis would fit right in with my weird friends.
