Removing Raccoons From Your Property

Raccoons removal from attics is one of the most common wildlife issues for Halker's Wildlife Control Services, LLC. Raccoons are common throughout most of the United States. They are easily recognized by their black eye mask and ringed (striped) tail.

Raccoons are nocturnal, meaning they do most of their sleeping during the day and are active at night. Although uncommon, raccoons are sometimes seen during the day. This is often a viewed as a sign that the raccoon may be sick. That is not always the case, but it's a best practice to avoid a raccoon whether day or night. Raccoons have become accustomed to seeing humans on a regular basis, so they may not always run when approached.

Raccoons are omnivores. They will eat just about anything. Common foods for raccoons are fruits, vegetables, insects, fish, smaller mammals, eggs, bird seed, and leftovers found in the local dumpster.

Raccoon breeding season is typically in January-February. They birth their young, 3-5 kits in April or May. The mother raccoon raises the kits herself. They will be able to fend for themselves by the time their first winter comes.

Can I give more than 5 stars? I highly recommend Halker's Wildlife Control Services, LLC! Joey is the best. I saw a raccoon in my attic and was leaving town the next day. I was so thankful he could come out that night. He was so thorough inspecting my roof and attic.

He found the entry point, set the traps, and then carefully inspected every inch of my attic. He must have been up there for 30 minutes.

Amazingly, he corralled the raccoon to the trap outside my attic! He is a miracle worker. That doesn't happen every time. He checked out the raccoon and determined she was probably pregnant and didn't have babies up there. He really knows his stuff. And did I mention he is just a very nice young man? He took the raccoon to a wildlife area and I was able to sleep that night. I will only use him in the future and you should too!
