The Problem
What Are Raccoons Doing to Your Home & Property?
Raccoons are among the most destructive and dangerous wildlife pests in the region. Intelligent, strong, and determined, they can tear open roof vents, soffits, and fascia boards to access attics — where they nest, breed, and cause significant structural damage in a short period of time.
Beyond property damage, raccoons carry serious health risks including rabies, leptospirosis, and raccoon roundworm — a parasite that can be transmitted to humans and pets. Their latrines (communal waste sites) can contaminate an attic or crawlspace and require professional remediation to clean safely.
Common signs of raccoon activity include:
- Loud thumping, scratching, or vocalizations in the attic at night
- Torn or damaged soffits, vents, fascia boards, or shingles
- Tipped or raided trash cans repeatedly overnight
- Raccoon tracks around the exterior of the home or roof line
- Strong ammonia odor from attic or crawlspace
- Visible damage to garden, pond, or pet food areas
How It Works
Our Raccoon Removal Process
We don't guess — we inspect. Every job starts with a thorough assessment of your property before any traps are placed.
Property Inspection
We inspect the full exterior and interior of your property — identifying entry points, nesting areas, and the extent of damage caused by raccoon activity.
Strategic Trapping
We place professional-grade traps in optimal locations based on raccoon activity patterns, travel routes, and entry points.
Removal & Monitoring
We return regularly to check traps, safely remove raccoons, and monitor activity until the problem is fully resolved.
Prevention Guidance
We advise on entry point sealing, habitat modification, and exclusion strategies to protect your property from future raccoon intrusions.
Why Hire a Pro
Raccoon Removal Is Not a DIY Job — Here's Why
Raccoons are large, strong, and potentially aggressive — especially mothers protecting young. Professional removal is the safe and effective solution.
Serious health risks
Raccoons carry rabies, leptospirosis, and raccoon roundworm — a parasite dangerous to humans and pets. Their waste requires professional cleanup.
They cause major structural damage
Raccoons tear open soffits, vents, and rooflines. Attic insulation contaminated with waste often needs full replacement — a costly repair.

Raccoon removal is subject to Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana wildlife laws. We're fully licensed and compliant — so you don't have to worry.
Satisfaction guarantee
If raccoon activity returns during your service period, we come back at no additional cost until the problem is fully resolved.
