Raccoon Trapping Protects Your Home
There are many reasons you don't want a raccoon living around your home or somewhere in your building. These are territorial animals that defend the area they feel is theirs. It makes matters worse when they have babies that get comfortable in your insulation. Plus, they bring disease into your home. There is a parasite called raccoon roundworm that is present in raccoon fecal matter. This parasite can cause blindness and even death in humans. Some of the benefits of raccoon removal include:
- Limiting Fire Hazards
- Keeping Outdoor Pets Safe
- Eliminating a Public Health Concern
- Getting Rid of Animal Waste in Your Attic
|
- Not Exposing Your Family to Disease
- Keeping Your Garden Thriving and Growing
- Preventing Damage to Your Home’s Structure

Prevent Rabies with Raccoon Trapping
Raccoons are one of the most prevalent carriers of rabies. Aggressive behavior is a common sign of rabies in raccoons. In fact, a rabid raccoon can possess a level of strength and boldness that may surprise you. The majority of raccoon’s do not carry rabies, but you should not put your own health and safety at risk. Raccoon trapping is a safe course of action for the animal and you. If you suspect you have a raccoon on your property, do not approach it. Contact us to determine the best course of action.
