Raccoons in the Attic

Raccoons love attic spaces! They often seek out attics as a place to nest and have their young. An attic can provide the perfect shelter from weather and predators, and it’s easy for raccoons to access thanks to soffit vents and rooflines.

These critters can damage insulation, wiring, and other important components in your attic. They can also spread diseases and parasites like rabies and raccoon roundworms (Baylisascaris procyonis).

Your attic is a perfect place for them to spend the winter months, and you may not even know they’re there until it’s too late. If you have a raccoon problem, call AAAC Wildlife Removal of Fort Pierce for safe and humane removal services.

How to Remove Raccoons in the Fort Pierce Area

Raccoons in the Fort Pierce area can be a real nuisance and can cause damage to your home. Trapping raccoons can be a difficult task, as they are very intelligent and resourceful animals.

It’s best to call experienced and certified professionals in trapping a raccoon. Our team at Fort Pierce has years of experience with live trapping raccoons and removing them from residential properties. Don’t just buy the first trap you see in a store and hope for the best. Leave the removal and trapping of raccoons to the experts at AAAC Wildlife Removal.

Humane traps are always used for raccoon trapping. There are two types of traps that are used by our trappers for removal.

One way trap or single-door trap
Two way trap doors

The first is a single-door trap. This type of trap has the benefit of being simple to set and deploy. These work great at capturing raccoons most of the time. Two-way traps increase the likelihood that raccoons will enter the trap. Animals are usually more comfortable getting into the cage if they see through to the other side.

When trapping raccoons, you have to consider what kind of bait to use. Many different types of bait can be used. Some good baits to try include are sweets, such as pieces of fruit or marshmallow. The white color of the marshmallow stands out in the attic’s low visibility and smells really tasty to a mother raccoon and her babies.

Raccoon repellents rarely have any meaningful effect on raccoons. You have to make sure that raccoons cannot enter the attic in the first place. Holes should be patched up and soffits should be covered.

Here’s Our Removal Process

Set traps and baits
Check traps regularly
Catch and remove the raccoon
Remove food sources
Close all entry points. Seal them with cement, steel, or wood materials to be sure that they cannot come back in again.
Clean up attic (Remove feces, deodorize, and replace insulation if necessary)
Fix all damage to the interior and exterior of your home.

Wildlife Removal in Fort Pierce, FL

Attempting to remove a wild animal on your own, especially raccoons can be very dangerous. Conducting animal control by poisoning or trapping wildlife inside your home pose risks.

Poisoned raccoons are dehydrated and are desperate for water sources, which can end up gnawing in your plumbing and contaminating your drinking water.

It’s best to call in the professionals at AAAC Wildlife Removal for safe and humane critter removal services in Fort Pierce. Our team only uses humane traps for live trapping raccoons and removing them from your property. We will also repair any damage that the animal may have caused to your home.

Raccoon Droppings Can Cause Serious Damage to Your Attic

Raccoons don’t really understand how to use the bathroom so they will just go anywhere. Raccoon droppings can contain roundworm, which is a parasite that can cause serious health problems in humans.

In addition, raccoon feces also creates a nauseating smell and attracts other pests like flies, maggots, and other vermin.

Raccoon urine can also cause damage to your attic insulation as well as the potential for mold growth. The droppings cause wood to rot and metal to rust.

Cleanup and Attic Re-insulation

Raccoons love the safety and comfort of home attics. Attics are usually very dark and not frequently visited by humans, making it the perfect place for a raccoon to live and raise her young.

They like dry areas to keep them warm and safe. When these animals decide on making it their home, they usually don’t come alone; Raccoons are known to travel with other raccoons that may also make your attic an unsuitable place to live.

The droppings of the raccoon can cause serious damage to your attic insulation, and their urine creates a strong ammonia smell which will only get worse over time.

As part of our wildlife control program, it’s critical that you have your attic cleaned by experts after performing wildlife removal. You may need to re-insulate your attic, as raccoons can easily damage or completely destroy the existing insulation.

Damage Repair, and Entry Point Seal-up

After wildlife removal, you must have the affected areas repaired and sealed up so that the animals cannot come back again. They can enter your home through very small holes, so it’s important to seal all potential entry points.

Various barriers such as metal flashing, caulking, and screening can be installed to help keep raccoons out. You may need wildlife management specialists to help to identify all the entry points and seal them properly.
