Raccoons in the Attic
While coming across a raccoon or two in your attic can be unsettling, it’s an occurrence that’s becoming increasingly common in the Dallas area. As our city grows, raccoons continue to become attracted to the shelter and easy access to food that an attic provides. Raccoon removal may seem like a daunting job to undertake, but the experts at Critter Control® of Dallas are ready to make your raccoon problems a thing of the past. In addition to being experienced in removing nuisance wildlife from attics all over Dallas, our technicians are also able to repair any damage the critters may have caused during their stay.
Although our technicians are trained to handle raccoon removal in a safe and efficient way, we do not recommend trying to remedy a raccoon infestation by yourself. Don’t be fooled by their cute looks; raccoons can become quite aggressive if they feel cornered or threatened, putting you and your family in danger. In addition to bites and scratches, raccoons are known to carry infectious diseases like:
- Parvovirus
- Rabies
- Roundworm
- Toxoplasmosis
- Infectious Canine Hepatitis
- And more
When you call on us to address a raccoon problem, we first inspect your home to find where the critters are entering, and to get an idea of how many raccoons have made their way into your attic. Once we’ve assessed the situation, we humanely remove the nuisance animals, repair any damage they caused during their stay, and we can even seal up any entry points to ensure they don’t return.
With over 30 years of experience in animal removal, Critter Control® of Dallas is well equipped to handle any raccoon issues you may have. If you suspect that raccoons have taken up residence in your attic, give us a call today for your free home inspection at 817-222-1101 or fill out a Contact Us form.
