What to look for

Heavy noises at night

Slow, heavy walking overhead at night usually means a raccoon. Squirrels are busy at dawn and dusk instead.

Torn vents and soffits

Ripped roof vents, pulled-back shingles or broken soffit corners are classic raccoon entry points.

Noises from the chimney

Chittering or scratching from the fireplace often means a mother with kits on the smoke shelf.

Frequently asked questions

Do raccoons carry rabies?
They can, especially in the eastern raccoon rabies zone. Never touch or feed a raccoon.
Can I just seal the hole?
Not until you're sure no raccoon or kits are inside. Trapped animals tear their way out.
Are one-way doors humane?
Yes, when no kits are inside. The raccoon leaves and can't get back in.
What's a raccoon latrine?
A spot they use as a toilet. Droppings can carry roundworm, so cleanup needs care.
Raccoon or squirrel?
Raccoons are heavy and active at night. Squirrels are quick and busy at dawn and dusk.
What does raccoon removal cost?
Most jobs cost several hundred dollars, more with repairs and attic cleanup.
