Raccoons have a reputation for slyness and mischief. Raccoons cause damage or nuisance problems around houses and outbuildings when they seek to gain entrance to attics or chimneys or when they raid garbage in search of food.
Raccoon control and raccoon removal is the only way to control raccoons and raccoon breeding. A raccoon nuisance in the home can upset daily life and removing raccoons from the home can be even more challenging. Raccoon varieties vary greatly in size. Raccoon control for large raccoons can be a challenge as well as raccoon control for small Raccoons. Raccoon animal control or removal of raccoons may be essential for human health and controlling raccoon Populations is the first step.
No matter what animal is inside the attic, it cannot stay there. All animals from rats to raccoons need to be outside for food and water. This is the basis for this type of trapping.
They have adapted to living with humans. They have learned that garbage cans and dumpsters are excellent sources of food, and that houses are excellent habitat. A mother raccoon will often tear a hole in a roof to access an attic, where they will make quite a mess and a lot of noise. If you have a raccoon in the attic, it's going to make a big mess. They will search hard for food, and are fond of tipping over trash cans, raiding dumpsters, and stealing pet food.
If you have raccoons in your attic, it's important that the wildlife operator search for a litter of baby raccoons, and remove them by hand after trapping and removing the female raccoon. If it's just raccoons outside causing trouble, they can be trapped and removed, but beware, they'll often dig and grab anything within a few inches of the cage trap.
There is no registered or effective raccoon repellent available. You can find some products on the market, such as mothball-based or urine-based repellents, but they are bogus. Go ahead and try them. It's best to have a professional trap and remove the animals properly.
The top reason for removing raccoons is to protect and keep one's property value, but raccoon rabies is also a concern. Rabid raccoons are rare, but if someone is bit by a raccoon, they will need to be treated as if the animal was indeed rabid. Rabies is a disease that cannot be taken lightly as it's next to impossible to cure once symptoms begin. Rabies post-exposure treatment is expensive.
Habitat modification may be possible without the actual capture and removal of the animal. Firstly, start by bringing in all pet foods at night, second keep trash in trash cans that can be locked or secured. In gardens, the use of electric fences may keep your food safe.
If the raccoons are inside your home raccoon trapping, removal and exclusion are the only option. First, raccoons must be removed, only then can all entrance points be sealed. After raccoon removal is complete the animal feces should be cleaned up, treat coon feces as a biohazard, and the area disinfected and deodorized. Please contact a professional animal removal service before attempting raccoon control.
