Raccoon Removal.
When you look up “raccoon removal services near me” you will be given a choice of lots of companies to choose from. Make sure you choose a company that has an ethics code of conduct and is registered with the NWCOA (Like Us) . This will make sure you and the animal getting the best service.
Now time for the best practices without baby raccoon’s.
If the raccoon has made a den in your attic we will first use a one-way-door. This typically works the first night and is the best way of “raccoon removal from attic”. If the raccoon is being more difficult and or is vandalizing your property with the den site is in a different location. We will use a “raccoon trap” there is various different types of raccoon traps however we will always use a live catch trap with our first attempts.
Best practices with baby raccoon’s.
With babies on board the best type of “raccoon control” is by giving the mother the ability to remove her babies on her own. We specifically do this by, securing all but one entry point. Then we will take Apex predator pheromones and soak a cotton ball with it and toss it into the main entrance. Using any residual that may have gotten on your gloved hand will go ahead and rub that around the entrance. At this point the mother will believe that her den site has been compromised and will automatically move her young to a secondary den site that she's already pre-prepared (Mama’s always have a plan B). To confirm this has happened we install trail cameras to capture the footage and count the babies. In the event that this doesn't work. We will find the babies and put them in a reunification box outside of the home and by using the one-way door we will force the mother into the position to relocate. Without harming any of the babies.
As you can guess every situation will be different and that these guidelines most definitely will have to be modified to accommodate different situations as they develop. Just remember humane, compassionate, and ethical. This is way is that all wildlife control operators should react raccoon control.
