They have adapted well to our urban and suburban environments.

Most damage caused by raccoons occurs during the early spring when females are pregnant. Females have learned that human dwellings are a great place to raise young. Cool in the summer, warm in the winter. They will destroy Fascia Boards, tear off shingles, remove siding and chimney caps and even take off vent caps to gain access to your home. Once inside they will destroy insulation and wires. The damage they do also provides easy access for other pests like Spiders, Rodents and Squirrels.

After raccoons have resided in the attic for any period of time, insulation damage is common. Loose fill insulation will become embedded with fecal and urine and lose its fluff. This allows heated air to escape into the attic in the winter and hot air to enter the home in the summer not to mention it’s a huge health risk.

This problem should be addressed immediately by a trained, licensed Wildlife Animal Removal professional. Putting it off could lead to costly insulation and wiring damage.
