We hunted coons for years with hound dogs. Was a ton of fun!

Anyhow, a 12 gauge with lead 6's get's the job done pretty quickly on the 15-20 pounders. But if you're dealing with a 30+ pounder, them suckers are mean as I've ever seen. I've watched them fall out of the tree alive and absolutely kick the [censored] out of a 80 pound hound dog. They'll chew the dogs nose off if you're not quick enough.

Here's what I would do....

Get that sumbiatch to come back into your laundry room and go heads up with that sucker... Go barbaric on his ass. Get your baseball bat out and tater that dude right between the eyes.

Or if it scares you too much then just live trap him....
