Raccoons in the attic cause thousands of dollars in structural damage and carry serious diseases including rabies. Our team removes them safely, seals entry points, and prevents future intrusions β fast.
Warning Signs
Do You Have a Raccoon Removal Problem?
Watch for these warning signs. If you notice any of them, call us right away β the sooner you act, the less damage and risk to your home and family.
Heavy Thumping in Attic
Raccoons are large β you'll hear distinct heavy thumping, rolling, and shuffling sounds in the attic, especially at night when they're active.
Overturned Trash Cans
Repeatedly raided or tipped trash cans overnight. Raccoons are intelligent and remember reliable food sources, returning to them consistently.
Damaged Vents & Soffits
Torn soffit panels, bent or ripped-open roof vents, or visible hole damage in the roofline β raccoons are strong and easily force open standard vent covers.
Tracks & Visual Sightings
Five-toed tracks in mud, sand, or soft ground near the home, or direct sightings near the roofline β especially at dawn and dusk.

FAQs
Raccoon Removal β Common Questions
Can raccoons cause serious damage to my home?
Yes β significantly. A raccoon living in your attic will tear and compress insulation, soil it with urine and feces, damage ductwork, chew wiring (a fire risk), and open entry points that allow water intrusion. The longer they stay, the greater the damage and cost.
Do raccoons carry diseases?
Yes. Raccoons are a primary rabies carrier in Florida and can also spread distemper, leptospirosis, and Baylisascaris procyonis (raccoon roundworm) β a parasite that can be fatal to humans. Their feces should never be handled without proper protective gear.
What if there are baby raccoons in the attic?
We adjust our approach carefully when kits are present. We never separate young raccoons from their mother in a way that would cause death. Our technicians are trained to handle these situations humanely and in full compliance with Florida law.
Is it dangerous to remove raccoons myself?
Yes. Raccoons will bite and scratch when cornered, especially mothers protecting young. They are strong, fast, and potentially rabid. DIY attempts frequently result in injury or incomplete removal. Always call a licensed wildlife specialist.
