Inspection and Entry-Point Mapping
Typical published range: $100–$300Most Kailua 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 Kailua, 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 Hawaii law governs the animal before the trap is set in Kailua.
2–7 days of trap checksBest: Raccoons that will not leave, or when doors are impractical
Exclusion Repairs and Roof Sealing
Typical published range: $300–$1,500 depending on openingsAfter the attic is empty, a provider in Kailua replaces torn soffit, secures roof-to-fascia gaps, and caps the chimney with a stainless or galvanized cap. Steel flashing and hardware cloth are the standard. Anything softer gets pulled off within a week.
Half a day to two daysBest: Every removal; stops the next raccoon from moving in
One-Way Doors and Eviction
Typical published range: $250–$600 including installationBefore a door goes on, every secondary opening around your Kailua home is closed, so the raccoon has exactly one exit and no re-entry. Then a hinged door is fitted over the active hole. When the noises stop, the door comes off and sealing begins.
3–10 days on the openingBest: Adult raccoons using one clear entry; never with kits inside
