Our team at Michiana Wildlife Removal specializes in safely and humanely removing raccoons from residential and commercial properties. These services are essential for dealing with raccoon infestations, which can cause damage to buildings, create unsanitary conditions, and pose health risks due to their potential to carry diseases.

Our wildlife experts employ a range of techniques and tools to address raccoon problems, including live trapping and relocation, exclusion methods to prevent re-entry, and clean-up of areas affected by raccoon activity. They prioritize the welfare of both humans and raccoons, striving to minimize harm to the animals while safeguarding properties from further damage.

Wondering How to Get Rid of Raccoons?

If raccoons are rummaging through your garbage or nesting in your attic, you’ve likely looked into how to get rid of them. While DIY approaches are tempting, raccoons can be aggressive and cause significant damage. Here’s why professional raccoon removal is the safest and most effective solution:

Long-Term Solutions

Professional raccoon removal isn’t just about getting them off your property; it’s about ensuring they don’t come back. Our team provides long-term solutions, such as exclusion techniques and habitat modification, to keep your property raccoon-free. Preventing future invasions can save you from the ongoing headache and expensive repairs often caused by raccoons.

Expert Assessment & Prevention

Our trained team not only removes the raccoons but also inspects your property for entry points. Raccoons are notorious for breaking into attics, chimneys, and sheds. We identify these vulnerable areas and secure them to stop future break-ins. Without this expert help, you may find yourself dealing with repeat invasions.

Avoiding Property Damage

Raccoons can wreak havoc on your home and property, especially if they’ve found their way into your attic or crawl spaces. Their sharp claws can tear apart insulation, siding, or even roofs, while their waste can contaminate living spaces and pose health risks. Professional removal prevents this kind of damage, saving you from costly repairs and potential health hazards.

How to Identify Raccoons On Your Property

Raccoons are resourceful creatures that can cause significant damage if they find their way into your home. Detecting their presence early is key to preventing extensive harm to your property. Here are some common signs that raccoons may have taken up residence in your home:

1. Loud Noises

Raccoons are nocturnal animals, so if you hear loud thumping, scratching, or rustling noises at night, particularly in your attic or walls, it’s likely that raccoons are moving around inside.

2. Torn Ductwork or Insulation

Raccoons are known to tear through ductwork, insulation, and even wiring as they create nests or look for food. Finding torn or shredded materials in your attic or crawl spaces is a strong indicator of their presence.

3. Entry Points

Raccoons can enter through small openings, and they often leave behind evidence of their entry. Look for torn shingles, damaged vents, or gaps in soffits and eaves where raccoons might be gaining access.

4. Unpleasant Odors

The presence of raccoons can lead to a buildup of feces and urine, resulting in strong, unpleasant odors. This can be especially noticeable in attics or enclosed spaces where they are nesting.

5. Footprints and Tracks

Raccoons often leave muddy or greasy footprints, particularly near entry points, on decks, or in attics. Their distinctive hand-like tracks can help confirm their presence.

6. Displaced or Tipped-Over Trash

Raccoons are notorious for rummaging through trash bins. If you notice that your garbage has been frequently disturbed or bins have been tipped over, it’s a sign that raccoons might be nearby.
