Subject: Raccoons in Attic


Raccoons in Attic

A raccoon or raccoons can become a nuisance when they gain access into your attic by damaging facia boards or the roof. Once inside your attic the raccoons mate and use your attic as a denning site. The raccoon will care for her young in the attic or even down in a wall space. She will often move the kits several times in order to protect them. Raccoons also use chimenys as denning sites, caring for their young just above the damper.

Occasionally a raccoon or raccoons will fall through the ceiling and invade your living quarters. Raccoons carry several diseases which can be a health hazard to humans and domestic pets. You should never approach a raccoon or raccoons that appear friendly, they may very well have rabies or distemper. If you notice a raccoon or raccoons during daylight hours or walking around in a stupor, you should contact a wildlife control professional.

Raccoons are not usually aggressive, however, if cornered, frightened, or caring for young, they may become very aggressive. A mother raccoon will protect her young at all cost and will use their claws and teeth to repel any intruder.

Since raccoons are nocturnal, homeowners have tried to exclude them at night, repairing the damage and shutting out the raccoon or raccoons, only to find a hole in the roof the next morning where the raccoon or raccoons regained entrance into the attic. It is best left to a wildlife control professional to remove the raccoon or raccoons, as trying it yourself will only cause more damage or a horrible situation where baby raccoons are left inside. It takes a wildlife control professional to remove the mother raccoon and babies.

The following Animal Wildlife Control links are to provide Lake County Illinois residents with assistance in removing nuisance wildlife from homes and businesses.

Nuisance wildlife includes raccoons, squirrels, birds, opossums, groundhogs, chipmunks, skunks, bats, snakes, beavers, badgers, moles, voles, and pocket gophers.

Structural damage is most commonly caused by raccoons, tree squirrels, opossums, and birds. Landscaping damage is caused by raccoons, ground squirrels, groundhogs, chipmunks, skunks, beavers, badgers, moles, voles, and pocket gophers.

Wildlife can cause extensive property damage and can be a risk to human health and safety. The most important step in resolving a nuisance wildlife problem is to contact a nuisance wildlife professional at the first sign of a problem. Once nuisance wildlife takes up residence in your home (attic, soffit, wall, crawl space), they are hesitant to leave and can cause extensive damage while establishing their new home.
