Why Raccoon Removal Can't Wait
Raccoons are intelligent, adaptable animals that frequently invade attics, crawl spaces, and chimneys in search of shelter. A single raccoon can tear through roofing materials, destroy insulation, and contaminate your home with feces that carry dangerous parasites like raccoon roundworm. Once they establish a den, they're difficult to dislodge without professional help. Our licensed technicians use humane live trapping and exclusion methods to remove raccoons and prevent re-entry permanently.

Risks of Ignoring Raccoons in Your Home
Raccoon roundworm (Baylisascaris procyonis) eggs in feces can cause severe neurological damage in humans if accidentally ingested.
Raccoons are a primary carrier of rabies in the United States — any bite or scratch requires immediate medical attention.
Structural damage from nesting can cost thousands in repairs — torn insulation, chewed wiring, and compromised roof decking.
Raccoon latrines in attics contaminate insulation and require professional biohazard cleanup.
Leptospirosis, a bacterial infection spread through raccoon urine, can cause kidney and liver failure.
A family of raccoons can destroy an attic in a matter of weeks, requiring full insulation replacement.
Our Approach
How We Remove Raccoons
Inspection
We thoroughly inspect your home to locate all entry points, assess damage, and identify the number of animals present.
Humane Trapping
Live cage traps are set at active entry points and checked daily. Raccoons are relocated per state regulations.
Exclusion & Repair
All entry points are sealed with heavy-gauge steel mesh and professional-grade materials raccoons cannot breach.
Cleanup & Prevention
Contaminated insulation is removed and replaced. We apply enzyme-based deodorizers to eliminate scent trails that attract new animals.
Frequently Asked Questions
How did raccoons get into my attic?
Raccoons are excellent climbers and can exploit gaps as small as 4 inches. Common entry points include damaged soffits, roof vents, chimney caps, and where rooflines meet.
Is it legal to trap raccoons myself?
Regulations vary by state. In many areas, trapping and relocating raccoons requires a permit. Our technicians are fully licensed and handle all legal requirements.
How long does raccoon removal take?
Most removals are completed within 3–7 days. We check traps daily and seal entry points once we've confirmed all animals are out.
Will raccoons come back after removal?
Not if exclusion is done properly. We seal every entry point with materials that raccoons cannot chew or pry open, backed by our warranty.
Do I need to clean up after raccoons?
Yes — raccoon feces carry dangerous parasites and must be handled as biohazard material. We offer full attic cleanup and insulation replacement services.
