Raccoons!

For the past few weeks I've been seeing a gang of four large racoons hanging around at night.  They've gone through our trash twice (annoying, but not alarming) but this morning I saw them in the yard as I was leaving for work around 9:15 am.  Isn't that bad?  I thought racoons were nocturnal and I shouldn't be seeing them that early.  I called animal control, but just got a voice mail and left a message- no callback yet.  The recording said to call the Somerville police if I was having an "animal emergency" but I'm not sure just seeing them rose to that level.  Even if they aren't sick I really don't want them hanging around, but ESPECIALLY not if they ARE sick.  Anybody have any suggestions/advice?  Is it normal to see them in the daylight?
