How to Permanently Keep Raccoons Away from Your House
Traditional raccoon control methods such as repellents, securing trash can lids, and yard cleaning may not permanently stop raccoons from entering your home. You need wildlife exclusion to secure any entry point in your house to prevent future damage.
Rather than repellents that use smell or sound, raccoon exclusion methods are physical barriers that prevent these critters from entering the home and should be installed by professional pest and wildlife management technicians.
How Raccoons Keep Getting in Your House
Raccoons are attracted to the warmth that homes and other dwellings have to offer. Without hesitation, raccoons will make dens in a chimney, attic, or shed.
They’re strong, smart mammals that will rip openings into the house looking for food and shelter. They will chew on wires and short-circuit electrical outlets. Damage caused by raccoons can be quite extensive and even a fire hazard.
Raccoons can squeeze through holes and vents about 4 inches wide. Cracks or openings in basements, garages, and chimneys act as an open invitation for these critters to make their dens.
What Wildlife Exclusion Products are Right for You
Once you know you have unwanted wildlife in your home, you know you have a problem. That’s where the techniques of professional wildlife exclusion come in. Exclusion products are custom-tailored solutions for the exterior of the home that can act as an entry point.
Attic & Roof Barriers
From the first-floor windows to the peak of the roof, wildlife exclusion systems shield your home from rodents, bats, and other nuisance wildlife that may find their way inside through the upper-part of the structure.
Technicians will replace and/or seal soffit and fascia with high-performance metal while also sealing ridge vents and any other gaps that could act as entry points to the first floor and the top of the home.
Trench Barriers
Wildlife technicians use an underground trenching process and rigid permanent barrier to prevent nuisance wildlife from digging under structures and potentially causing structural damage.
After installation, low-clearance areas like the deck, shed, and other areas are protected from wildlife — especially burrowing animals like raccoons.
