If I had a raccoon in my attic crawlspace and I was not in the wildlife removal industry(Though I am) I often think of how homeowners would think and act when they are presented with an animal that is in the attic, Wall or crawlspace  and if the homeowner has no idea how to get rid of the raccoon in the attic.

 

One of the first thoughts I can think of is pest control or the local animal shelter  due to the fact that it is a readily local or city sanctioned idea. We are conditioned as youths to call the local dog catcher or local rat removal guy when dealing with animal control issues .

The second thought I had was the sheriffs department or local fire fighters  or a close neighbor or friend. The problem here in my thoughts are that raccoons can be and are dangerous, especially when with young and this could actually put whomever was chosen to help into harms way. Raccoons will bite and scratch, trust me I have witnessed that in person!

My Thoughts on Raccoon Removal in Charleston, WV !

To be honest when it comes to pest control companies and wildlife removal in Charleston, WV here are my thoughts. They could be completely wrong but again they are my thoughts.

Pest control companies pay their pest control techs by the hour and lets be honest how many people do you know that would engage with a wild animal such as a raccoon when making barely over minimum wage, I mean really .. would you? and on that note would the tech actually care how long it takes to trap the animal or raccoon from your house or complete the raccoon remove in a timely manner?  Pest control companies specialize in insects period.

The local sheriffs department and the firefighters actually no longer help in raccoon removal unless the animal becomes a threat and then they will immediately destroy the animal if they can. Again if we have to be honest they have far more important things to be worried about and the fact is that there is a company that not only handles these issue but can exclude or repair the damage and install preventative measures to prevent future occurrences.  If you have a plumbing issue do you call the police? NO you call a plumber..

So in closing I have come to the conclusion that marketing and education are the best key set to bringing the fine people of Charleston West Virginia to understand that when they do have wildlife conflicts there is a company that can help and that company is The Wildlife Professionals of WV and though they are not perfect they are relentless and not paid by the hour.

The wildlife professionals are a network of local trappers and wildlife exclusion experts and they are the heart beat of nuisance wildlife removal in America and I proud to have been involved in this revolution.

How to choose a animal removal or animal trapping service?

Ask questions! its that simple really. Not all raccoon removal companies are built the same. Some only trap the animal, some trap and do exclusion; while other professional wildlife removal companies can and will work with your insurance company to not only remove the wildlife conflict but make it as cost effective as possible for you. Make sure you ask the company you are thinking about using if they have worked with insurance adjusters in the past.

What type of trap should be used?

A professional will almost always use humane traps or humane trapping systems. It is always best to use humane raccoon removal practices. Once the raccoon or raccoons have been successfully removed the feces impacted insulation should be removed. Professionals should always be used, raccoon feces can carry a multitude of disease and bacteria agents as well as a ringworm that can be life threatening to humans.

Raccoon removal in Akron, Ohio has changed in the last few years. At one time raccoon removal was as simple as setting a humane trap in the yard and waiting for it to go in and get caught. Raccoon removal techniques have changed over the years but the basic still remain the same.

Raccoons have changed to in this last decade in Akron, Ohio due to encroachment of their habitats and the building of new homes that take away from their natural habitat. Raccoon Removal has changed due to this fact. Raccoons have found that attic, crawlspace and/or Chimneys make a great place to have babies and raise a family. Once in the attic or other spaces they will pick a spot to start urinating and pooping in. The attic space that the raccoons are in can become a latrine in no time at all.

Raccoons are predominantly Nocturnal. Sounds in the attic will start at dusk and can last all night making it impossible to sleep. Raccoon removal is needed when these creatures or critters get into your attic. A wildlife Professional will trap and remove the raccoon and then cleanup the attic of all the raccoon crap and bio hazard impacted insulation and place new insulation down in order to complete a attic restoration in Akron, Ohio.
