Need Raccoon Trapping? Here's what you need to know...
Raccoons seek shelter and protection in a variety of places, from attics to crawl spaces, chimneys and more. They also use these spaces to birth their young. It’s important to seal up their entry points to keep them (and other wildlife) from coming in.
Raccoons don’t have to be inside your home to become a nuisance. If you’re simply looking for someone to trap raccoons that are giving you trouble on your property, we can take care of that as well.
Important: If there’s a raccoon behaving strangely on your property, call us immediately at 678-744-9453. Raccoons that are exhibiting odd behaviors may have rabies or other dangerous illnesses and should be trapped immediately. Depending on your location, your local government Animal Control may not handle calls for sick wildlife
Raccoon Trapping, Removal & Exclusion Process
Raccoon and wildlife exclusion for a home or building is not a simple, standard process. Each structure is unique, requiring different methods and ladder work. It takes a skilled technician with a trained eye to find all of the uncommon holes. At A & A, we have the experience and know-how to do the job right, guaranteed. Unlike many other companies, we use quality materials such as tough wire screening, thick sheet metal and other products that will last the life of your home.
Phase 1 - Sealing Entry Points
Raccoons typically enter through rather large openings. Oftentimes they cause substantial damage to homes. Our team consists of both licensed wildlife control operators and highly skilled carpenters. We are fully capable of repairing the damage done by raccoons.
Repairing the damage is key to keeping raccoons out for good.
Many other entry holes may exist in the home. Customers often opt to have their entire home sealed to prevent all wildlife from getting in. This includes rats, bats, squirrels and more. We seal roof returns, vents, utility penetrations, repair crawl space doors and more.
Phase Two - Raccoon Trapping & Removal
After sealing the home, it’s time to get the raccoons out. The same day we close up the house, we strategically place cage traps in the problem area. We then return weekly several times to remove the animals and reset the traps until they are completely eliminated. Sometimes it may be necessary to do some trapping before the exclusion work depending on the situation.
When young are present, we may use a specialized repellent that makes the mother remove her young immediately. Alternately, young may be removed by hand.
Phase 3 - Raccoon Cleanup
When we’re confident all rodents are gone and can’t get back in, it’s a good idea to clean up their mess. If you decide to sell your home, most home inspectors will find and report rodent evidence to the potential buyers or agency. The type of service we recommend depends on the level of contamination. For small infestations, oftentimes we can remove visible feces with a HEPA vacuum and dispurse a hospital-grade disinfectant into the attic. Other evidence such as tunnels and trails in the insulation will also be smoothed out to benefit future inspections.
Our Disinfectant Sanitizer Virucide kills harmful germs, bacteria, fungi and viruses. It disinfects hepatitis, hantavirus, avian flu, HIV and more. It also prevents and eliminates mildew.
When there is heavy contamination, a full Attic Restoration becomes necessary. Some customers choose this option if they are not comfortable with the slightest bit of contamination being left behind. We have received extensive training in proper attic restoration and remediation of animal feces and urine. We have also received training and certification from the Building Performance Institute for proper air sealing and insulation installation. We follow several protocols to prevent contamination from entering your living space during our clean-out process. All insulation is removed. We ensure that the attic floor and other areas are sealed properly while maintaining proper ventilation. In some cases, encapsulating paint is used to seal off heavily contaminated surfaces. Lastly, we install fresh insulation and always clean up behind ourselves before we go.
