Professional Wildlife Trappers

Most raccoons can be removed from an attic by using a live trap. It’s never a good idea to just go to the hardware store and buy any traps that look like they will do the job.

It’s best to let professionals do the job. We at AAAC Wildlife Removal are a highly reputable and highly recommended wildlife removal company in the St. Petersburg area. All of our methods for controlling raccoons are safe for humans, pets, and your home.

Humane traps generally come in two forms:

  • One way trap doors
  • Two-way trap doors

One-way trap doors do a decent job of catching the raccoon, but two-way doors are generally more effective since raccoons will be more likely to go inside the trap if they can see through the other side.

Our Raccoon Removal Process

It takes attention to detail and a good understanding of the behavior of raccoons to remove them. The raccoon professionals are trained in biology and animal behavior so that they can handle a wide range of situations.

We use humane and safe methods to remove raccoons from your home or property. This is our procedure for removing raccoons from your home or property.

  • Set Traps
  • Remove Raccoon
  • Make home less attractive to wild animals
  • Seal entry holes
  • Clean attic
  • Repair any damage done

Setting traps

The traps are placed in areas where we suspect raccoons will frequent. Once we set the trap and get it baited with a lure such as peanut butter, we check it every day to make sure nothing’s been caught.

Remove the raccoon

We will capture the raccoon and remove them from your property ensuring they can no longer return.

Make your home less attractive to wild animals

We make sure that there are no food or water sources for wild animals nearby so that they won’t be tempted to come back into your home.

Seal the entry holes

We seal any holes or gaps that could be used by animals to gain access to your attic. This is done with wire meshes and caulking.

Clean up the attic

We’ll remove droppings and debris that the raccoons may have left behind. We will clean up any mess that the raccoons may have left behind so it doesn’t pose a danger to your health or the health of your family members.

Repair wildlife damage

We’ll clean up any damage caused by the raccoon to your home. This includes roof damage, soffits, and fascia boards.

Wildlife Removal and Pest Control

Poisoning raccoons to rid them of their presence is cruel and can lead to more serious problems. Poisoned pests will eventually die inside your home or in the structure of your building. Sometimes, you will not even know that the animal has died until days later and this will lead to a horrific odor throughout the home.

A dying animal may also be able to crawl into difficult-to-reach places, and then die. This makes it even more difficult to remove them. You will need to contact an animal control professional who may use several methods to remove the carcass of the animal from your property or home.

Our wildlife specialists will not use poisons but will use humane trapping methods to solve any raccoon issues you may have. Many animal removal companies don’t have the experience to deal with these animals. They may even cause more damage than the original problem.

Raccoon Repellents

Raccoon repellents sold in the market never work in any meaningful way. These products claim to repel raccoons from your home. However, most of these products have very limited effects on raccoons as the animals can simply adapt to the noises and smells.

Some may even be harmful to humans and pets when used around the property. The best way to repel raccoons is to make sure they don’t have access to your house and that there isn’t anything attracting them to your property.

Signs of Raccoon Infestation

There are tell-tale signs that you have a problem with raccoons in your yard or home. Sightings of droppings or the animal itself, especially if they are seen hanging around your home is a sure sign that you have an infestation.

  • Unpleasant smell of droppings
  • Damage to your home’s exterior
  • Strange noises
  • Tipped over garbage bins
  • Raccoon tracks
  • Missing pet food
  • Pets behaving strangely

Unpleasant smell of droppings

Raccoons will leave waste that will decompose and start to smell. It is always a good idea to check your yard at night for raccoon droppings as this will be one of the first signs that you have an infestation problem on your hands.

Damage to your home’s exterior

Sharp teeth and claws are the hallmarks of raccoons. They can cause serious damage to your home’s exterior if they find entry points. To get into your home, they will rip off aluminum siding, wood vents, and plastic vents.

Strange noises

Raccoons are night-shifting, so it’s possible that you have an infestation. Scratching noises are very common as well as chewing and gnawing.

Tipped over garbage cans

Raccoons love digging through bags and garbage cans to find food. To get what they want, they will throw the cans and bags around your yard.

Raccoon tracks

One of the easiest ways to spot a raccoon problem is by looking for their footprints in your yard or garden. They usually leave behind large paw prints that are very easy to identify because they have five toes in their front feet and four in the rear.

Were you aware that Raccoons have very sensitive hands that almost act as a second set of eyes?

Missing pet food

Raccoons are omnivorous and will eat anything! Raccoons love pets and will often visit yards with animals that are outdoors.

Did you know that Raccoons are omnivorous?

Pets acting strangely

Pets will often act strangely when they sense that a wild animal is near. They can become aggressive, scared, or even try to attack the animal.

Re-insulation and Clean Up of Attic

Attic restoration starts when it is established that there are no other animals present in the attic. We will first clean up any droppings and do disinfection as they could contain the infectious raccoon roundworm.

Most of the time, insulation will need to be replaced even if it is not visibly damaged. After all other precautions have been taken, it should be replaced with a new layer.

To ensure that there are no harmful bacteria, we will clean out your attic from raccoon waste, debris, and nesting materials. Clean-up should be done by qualified professionals because raccoon feces can cause a wide variety of problems like E. coli infection, hepatitis, and salmonellosis to name a few.

Wild Animal Damage Repair

Once clean-up is completed we’ll repair all damage caused by the raccoons such as ripped shingles or siding on your home or shed; chewed through wood trim around windows and doorways; etc. We also replace insulation that is damaged badly enough that it needs to be replaced entirely.

If we discover any holes in walls behind panels where raccoons have torn their way into the wall studs, we will seal them shut and sanitize the area. Furthermore, if there are any gaps large enough for wildlife to get through, these will be covered and sealed.

If raccoons have damaged your vinyl siding, gutters, or downspouts or made them a source for water leakage onto the roofing structure, we will repair that as well.
