Heavy thumping in the attic at dusk, insulation ripped up, a soffit panel pushed open: raccoons announce themselves. In spring and summer the animal in your attic is usually a mother with kits, which changes everything about how removal must be done: trap her alone and the young die in your insulation, creating a far worse problem.
We assess for young first, always. Removal combines trapping, one-way doors and, when kits are present, hand removal and reunion strategies that get the whole family out alive and keep you legal under Florida FWC rules. Then we repair what she tore open and seal the home, because a raccoon-sized hole never stays vacant long.
Signs of raccoons in your home
- Loud walking or thumping overhead at dusk and dawn
- A torn soffit, bent vent or pushed-up roof panel
- Chittering or trilling sounds (kits) in spring/summer
- Large droppings concentrated in one attic area (a latrine)
- Trash cans raided nightly despite locked lids
Frequently asked about raccoon removal
How do you get a raccoon out of the attic?
First we confirm whether young are present. Then we use trapping or one-way doors to remove the adults, hand-remove kits if needed, repair the entry damage and seal the attic. Skipping the baby-check is the most common and cruelest industry mistake.
Are raccoons dangerous?
They can be. Raccoons are Florida’s primary rabies-vector species, and their droppings can carry raccoon roundworm. Never corner one or handle it yourself, professional removal exists for good reasons.
What damage do raccoons do in attics?
Torn ductwork, compressed and contaminated insulation, chewed wiring, ripped soffits and a concentrated latrine. We document the damage during inspection and include repairs in the removal plan.
Will raccoons leave on their own?
A denning female will not, she chose your attic to raise her young and may stay for months. Waiting usually means more damage and a larger family. Humane removal now is cheaper than repairs later.
