Professional, Humane Raccoon Removal in Houston

Handling a raccoon infestation in your attic or walls requires a systematic approach. Our process begins with a detailed inspection to locate entry points and assess the damage. We then use humane traps to capture and remove the raccoons from your property.

After removal, we seal all identified entry points and repair any damage caused by the raccoons, such as chewed wiring or damaged insulation. We also provide recommendations on preventing future infestations, including securing potential access points and addressing attractants. Our comprehensive service ensures that your home is restored to a safe and secure condition.

Signs of a raccoon infestation include unusual noises, such as scratching or scurrying, coming from your attic or walls, especially during the night. You might also observe overturned garbage cans, damaged insulation, and raccoon tracks or droppings around your property. Visible damage to structures, such as chewed wires or torn insulation, can also indicate an infestation.

If you notice these signs, our team at WWE can perform a thorough inspection to confirm the presence of raccoons and assess the extent of the infestation. We use our expertise to identify the source of the problem and develop an effective plan for removal and prevention.

Preventing raccoons from entering your home involves several proactive measures that we can help you implement. Start by securing trash cans with raccoon-proof lids and storing them in a garage or shed when not in use. Remove pet food and water bowls from outdoor areas, and use sealed containers for birdseed and other animal food.

Additionally, we can inspect your home for potential entry points, such as gaps in roofing, vents, and chimneys, and seal them to prevent raccoons from gaining access. Installing motion-activated lights and using raccoon repellents can further deter these nocturnal animals. Our team provides comprehensive solutions to keep your property raccoon-free and secure.

Raccoons can be dangerous due to their potential to carry diseases such as rabies, which can be transmitted through bites or scratches. Rabies is a serious and potentially fatal disease that affects the nervous system and requires prompt medical attention. Additionally, raccoons can become aggressive if they feel threatened, posing a risk of injury.

To protect yourself and your pets, it’s important to avoid direct interaction with raccoons. If you suspect a raccoon infestation or encounter a raccoon on your property, contact us immediately. We can handle the situation professionally and ensure that the raccoons are removed safely, reducing the risk to you and your loved ones.

The most effective traps for raccoon removal are live traps designed specifically for medium-sized animals. These traps are robust and feature a one-way entry mechanism that prevents the raccoon from escaping once inside. We use high-quality traps that are baited with attractants like marshmallows, cat food, or fruits to ensure successful capture.

Our team at WWE is skilled in selecting and deploying the right traps for your situation. We place the traps in strategic locations based on raccoon activity, such as near entry points or feeding areas. This targeted approach ensures that the traps are effective and that the removal process is carried out efficiently.
