Bed Bugs: Where Do They Come From?

Uninvited attic dwellers can turn your home upside down, and an agile, mischievous raccoon in the attic is no exception. This smart and adaptable creature, while fascinating in the wild, can cause havoc and disruption when it takes up residence in your home. Recognizing the need for safe, humane solutions is the first step in addressing this unwelcome situation head-on, restoring tranquility to your domestic life.


Our pest control service harmoniously blends safe, effective raccoon removal with the necessary compassion for these native creatures. Rather than using harsh methods, we prioritize child and pet-friendly solutions, all while delivering the professional expertise you expect from a team with a track record of handling complex animal intrusions with finesse.


Identify Raccoon Entry Points and Secure Them Thoroughly


Raccoons are smart creatures – they can find a way into your home or business through small gaps or openings. The first step to resolve an infestation is to pinpoint these access points. Raccoons commonly use openings in the roof, vents, and chimneys as entry points. However, they can even use torn screens or loose shingles. Be thorough in your investigation – look for signs like scratching marks, feces, or raccoon trails.


After identifying these spots, the next step is to secure them. You need to block the raccoon’s entryway to prevent future intrusions. However, secure these points only after making sure the raccoons have vacated the premises. You can use a variety of materials like metal screens, hardware cloths, or specially designed caps and covers.


Employ Humane Live Traps Near Entry Points Strategically


The next step in this context is using humane live traps. You must position these traps near the identified entry points to increase the chances of capturing the raccoons. Using baits like marshmallows, fresh fruits, or cat food also help.


The key here is to be strategic. Remember not to harm the raccoon in the process. We aim to discourage and prevent them from coming back rather than harming them. As they are nocturnal creatures, check your traps early in the morning.


While trapping sounds effective, it's essential to check local laws and regulations. In several regions, it’s illegal to trap and release raccoons without a license. Ensure you are aware of what you can and cannot do to stay within legal boundaries.


Contact Professional Wildlife Control for Safe Raccoon Relocation Assistance


Safe, professional assistance is a dependable way to ensure effective raccoon removal. Professionals are equipped with the necessary knowledge and tools to handle the situation efficiently. They ensure a safe and humane relocation process. Not to mention, it saves homeowners and businesses the trouble of dealing with potentially aggressive wild animals.


Professionals initially survey the property to identify the severity of the infestation. They then plan a customized solution for your specific problem. Reaching out to these experts can be the best course of action if the infestation is severe or if you don't have the time or energy for DIY methods.
