What To Look For: inspect your home for any vinyl or aluminum soffit touching your roof system this is commonly referred to as a roof return. If its not reinforced with metal flashing it should be secured if raccoons are active in your area, there is a good chance they will eventually push that area up to gain entry. Also, look for anything like porch roofs, fences or pipes that are under your soffit that could  give raccoons easy leverage to damage the soffit.

Raccoons Destroy Attics!

Raccoons often find themselves in search of places to live that are dry, warm, safe, and appropriate to raise young in. Unfortunately for home and business owners, attics make a perfect location for a raccoon to start a family. By creating openings in soffits and vents, raccoons can gain entry into an attic. Raccoons can damage duct work, wiring, insulation, and woodwork, as well as personal items stored within your attic. As well, raccoons use the attic as a home and restroom, leaving behind urine and feces. They can bring in a host of parasites such as fleas, mites, ticks, and lice, as well as diseases such as roundworm, leptospirosis, and more.

 

Raccoon Deterrent Method

Some common, yet ineffective home remedies to get a Raccoon family to leave include scaring them, using various lighting, noise makers, moth balls, and coyote urine.

We use a proven, effective, special hormone that encourages the Raccoon mother to leave with her offspring. Once they have left, we seal them out, so they or another Raccoon family can’t move back in.

 

Raccoon Trapping

Additionally, we offer Raccoon Trapping and Raccoon Relocation services. Raccoons are humanely trapped and relocated by us. Then, the entry point is repaired and sealed, so another family does not move back in.

raccoon Signs!

Raccoons are some of the biggest animals that can break into your house.  They are usually large and loud, so listen for them looking for food or moving.  They also can be very vocal if babies are in the mix, so they can be quite noisy at times.  Listen and look for them at night as Raccoons are a very nocturnal mammal. Be on the look out for nesting material as they are big into nest building inside your home. They also can create a lot of visible damage outside your home.  They will leave droppings in one general area, similar to a cat, not droppings all over.
