Inspection and Entry-Point Mapping
Typical published range: $100–$300Most Eagan inspectors want to know three things: where the raccoon is entering, whether young are present, and how much cleanup is waiting in the attic. Timing matters. In spring, the answer to the second question decides the method.
60–120 minutesBest: Every job; finds entries, attic damage, and latrines
Humane Live Trapping
Typical published range: $200–$500 per animal, plus trip feesIn Eagan, trapping is usually paired with sealing, because catching one raccoon does nothing about the hole that let it in. Expect per-animal pricing plus visits. Ask how Minnesota law governs the animal before the trap is set in Eagan.
2–7 days of trap checksBest: Raccoons that will not leave, or when doors are impractical
One-Way Doors and Eviction
Typical published range: $250–$600 including installationIn Eagan, eviction doors are the gentlest option, but they have one firm rule: never install one in spring while kits are inside unless the young are removed with the mother. A locked-out mother will tear through the roof to reach them. Providers check for kits first.
3–10 days on the openingBest: Adult raccoons using one clear entry; never with kits inside
Exclusion Repairs and Roof Sealing
Typical published range: $300–$1,500 depending on openingsRaccoons in Eagan favor the soffit-to-roof corner, the plumbing vent, and the uncapped chimney, so those three spots get sealed on nearly every job. Materials must be screwed, not glued. Expect a repair list rather than a single patch.
Half a day to two daysBest: Every removal; stops the next raccoon from moving in
