Even after picking it up it basically needs power washed off the deck. And you can smell it from anywhere you are in the yard. My dog's poop looks downright nutritional after seeing this raccoon poop.
For your safety, please be really careful handling raccoon poop. The majority of them carry raccoon roundworm, which is a really dangerous parasite the eggs of which are virtually indestructible. Raccoon poop is a real biohazard to humans (and small animals). Google it.
eek!

Animals I have seen in yards in the past year:
Squirrels
Birds
Deer
Raccoons
Foxes
Rats
Mice
Chipmunks
Cats
Enjoy your pristine lawn.
Please don't use the presence of wildlife as an excuse to let your dog poop on other people's property.

To those who don't want trace amounts of poop in their lawn probably shouldn't know about all birds and squirrels and rodents who pee and poop all over it every day. A smear of dog poop on a few blades of grass won't hurt anyone, and won't stick to a shoe or even a bare foot. It dries and gets cleaned off the next time it rains. If you want a sterile lawn, get astroturf.

You don't let your dog poop on other peoples grass. You obviously see why, given the lesser of two evils you provide the lawn owner.
Lawn Owner chooses neither. Please just don't trespass.

traces don't bother me, it's when you let your dog squat in my front lawn with no scoop/bag on your person and keep it moving as if it's MY dog and I don't mind smelling/seeing it's remnants in my yard. IT IS THE LAW, obey it!

OP, you should never let your dog poop on someone's lawn. That's ridiculous. I have to believe you're a troll.

Please, have your dog do its business on the strip of grass between the sidewalk and the street.
OP here. In a follow up post I note that I do this. But my question still applies, since I clean up the poop from that narrow stretch between street and sidewalk.

It is not. In fact, the EPA considers it a problem for the environment and human health:

I don't need your dog fertilizing my lawn. Anymore than you need me fertilizing yours.
