Raccoon in the Attic
Raccoons can cause a lot of damage when they live in your attic. These nuisance animals will rip up ducts and even electrical wiring to make their nests, which is dangerous as it will cause fire. There are also potential health hazards to be aware of. These pesky critters can transmit diseases such as rabies to humans. As they seek shelter, water and food, raccoons can also cause structural damage to your house. They can tear up insulation and drywall in order to create a space that is comfortable enough for them to live in.
Cypress Raccoon Removal
It is difficult to get rid of wild animals living in attics. A licensed wildlife control professional must do this. When you have determined the source of their entry, sealing off all other potential points of access will go a long way towards keeping them out. Set up traps to capture the wild animal, and then release it in a more suitable habitat at least 5 miles from your home.
A live trap is considered the most effective way to get rid of these wild animals from your attic. Live traps allow you to safely remove the raccoons from your home without harming them. There are two types of traps, but it is usually a matter if you prefer one or the other.

Wildlife Removal and Pest Control
Using poison to get rid of raccoons is never a good idea. Raccoons will track them inside your home creating a safety risk to you and your family members. Raccoons can also be found in difficult-to-reach places, and it is very difficult to get rid of the smelly raccoons in your attic or ceiling. You should consider hiring a wildlife control service provider that specializes in wildlife removal. Our experts never use poison to rid raccoons. Exclusions and trapping are a safer and more humane way to get rid wild animals.
Raccoon Repellents
One common misconception is that repellents or deterrents alone will work to get rid of wild animals. This is false. Many companies that offer these measures only use scare tactics such as strobe lights and loud noises to temporarily fix the problem until the raccoons adjust to what’s happening outside their nest area.
Raccoon Feces
Cypress FL Raccoons are smart animals that can cause serious damage to your house. They can even create a bathroom in your attic. There have been many calls from people complaining about raccoons invading attics and gnawing through pipes. We even had some male raccoons attacking young juveniles.
Raccoon Infestation Signs
There are a few tell-tale signs that you might have raccoons living in your attic or under your house. For example, there will be unpleasant smells of droppings and urine, exterior damage to your home, scratching sounds in the attic or walls, as well as strange noises when the sun goes down. You might also notice that there’s garbage cans tipped over, missing pet food or even pets behaving strangely.
Droppings that leave an unpleasant odor
The decomposing waste these critters leave behind is not only unpleasant to smell but it can also lead to serious health issues such as respiratory problems, allergies and other infections.
Damage to your home’s exterior
Raccoons like nothing better than finding a nice warm place in which they can live. In order to find this, they will tear apart anything that gets in their way including roofing shingles or vents for instance! It is possible that you might see holes or tears around your house if there are any raccoons living inside. This could be dangerous as well because insulation materials may have been tampered with potentially exposing wiring within walls and ceilings thus increasing the chances of fire hazard! Strange noises
Strange noises
Raccoons might be living on your property if they make rattling sounds. These little creatures make lots of noise at night as they search around the attic for food such as pet food or insects like spiders, crickets and ants. Their sharp claws make scratching at the floors in your attic sound like nails on a chalkboard. These animals like to be outside and go about their business, so if you hear unusual noises at night there is a chance you are sharing your space with them!
Trash strewn around the yard
Raccoons love garbage bins. Raccoons love to rummage through garbage bins looking for food. It’s why it’s not unusual to find your garbage container tipped over with trash scattered everywhere. This is one sign that you may have raccoons on your property.
Raccoon tracks
These furry little creatures leave distinct prints behind from their paws, and they look like a tiny human handprint – five toes in total plus some fur to make up these marks left behind by them when leaving or entering an attic.
Missing pet food
Raccoons don’t like to eat picky food so if your pet is missing their food, it could be a sign that a raccoon has moved into the attic. Pets who suffer from anxiety due to
Strange behavior in pets
If you notice that your pets are acting strange, hiding, and not coming out when they usually do then there’s a good chance that something else is going on in the area of where they usually sleep at night. They could be running away due to fear brought upon by noise or commotion which means it might be time to find another sleeping spot for them if this is happening often enough.
Attic Clean up and Re-insulation
Once it has been established that there are no other wild animals or babies who could still be around (a live trapping should determine this), an attic cleanup can begin.
Raccoon feces should be treated immediately as it can carry parasites like raccoon roundworm, which can cause serious health problems for humans. This job requires expertise and the use of safety gear like masks, gloves, and suits.
Insulation will most likely need to be replaced, even if it has not been damaged. It has been contaminated and a new layer should be put in its place after everything else has been taken care of.

Wild Animal Damage Repair
After attic clean up and decontamination, the next step would be to repair any damage done by the raccoons. Animals have sharp nails and teeth which can tear apart wood, drywall, insulation etc. If you are not sure what kind of work needs to be done on your property then it is best that you hire a wildlife removal company for this part as well because they will know exactly how much time and effort should go into repairs depending on where the animal has been living in or around your house, garage or shed.
