Raccoon Removal In Bartlett TN

Raccoon Trapping In Bartlett TN - Raccoon Damage To Your Home

Do you need raccoon trapping in Bartlett TN?  If you see your trash scattered and your sod rolled up, and if you hear strange noises overhead almost like a person walking around, then you just might have a raccoon living with you rent free!

These little masked bandits can be fun to watch, but they can cause a lot of damage to your home and property in a very short amount of time.  The sharp teeth and hand-like paws of a determined raccoon can easily tear through your shingles, siding, soffits and screens to make itself a home in your attic.  Raccoons look for food and shelter, and so if there is a food source for them nearby, they will start shopping for a new winter home in your neighborhood.

Raccoon Trapping In Bartlett - Raccoon Babies

Just like all mothers, raccoon moms can be incredibly protective of their babies.  That’s why when it comes time to look for a nursery, raccoon mothers look for a warm, secluded place up high and away from predators.  Your attic is a dream nursery for many pregnant raccoons.  However, this situation can be a financial nightmare for homeowners.  A raccoon family can quickly destroy your insulation with feces and urine, even to the point where an attic restoration is the only solution to getting rid of the terrible smell.
If you do suspect raccoon babies in your attic, contact a wildlife professional at once!  Many a homeowner has popped his head through an attic door to come face to face with an angry mama raccoon.  And these ladies do not play!

Raccoon Removal In Bartlett TN - Raccoons In Your Yard

When you spend so much time and money keeping your yard pretty, the last thing you want to see in the morning is ugly holes in your lawn where a hungry racoon has been searching during the night for grubs.  Raccoons don’t give a hoot about how much that sod cost to put down.  These are nocturnal creatures who sleep during the day and hunt for food at night, and if they need to roll back your sod for tasty grubs or worms, then that’s just what they’ll do.

Raccoons are omnivores, which means they will eat plants and vegetables.  Wild animals will follow their food sources, so if you have rats, lizards, mice, frogs, worms, grubs, and yes…even birdseed, then eventually you will see signs of a nightly visitor hunting for his evening dinner.

Raccoon Trapping In Bartlett TN - Raccoon Dangers To Pets

Many raccoons in Shelby County carry rabies and distemper, which they can transmit to your dog, especially if Fido decides to defend his territory.  And like all wild animals, they are carriers of fleas, ticks, worms and other parasites you don’t want on your pets.

If you feed your pets outside, please be sure to put the food in a bowl and not on the ground.  Remove the food and bowl as soon as your pets are finished.  Raccoons are always looking for a free meal, and they especially love cat food.  Sadly, many pets have been killed by wild raccoons over food.  If you do see a raccoon about, put Fido on a leash and call Apex Wildlife Control today!
