How to get Raccoon out of
your attic or college dorm/building?
Oftentimes, people discover an animal, particularly raccoon in their
attic or college dorm as soon as they start scampering, noises and
scratching on the ceiling or in the building. There are a wide
variety of animals that live in the attic, home, or college building
like raccoons, squirrels, bats, pigeons and rats. However, there is
nothing to worry about, because you can
get raccoons out of the
attic, home, or building you live in.
1.
Check the house to
discover if there is an opening the animals are suing to go in and
out of the house, attic, or building through the trees and/or roof.
Check to see what
Raccoon
poop looks like if there is any in the attic or crawl spaces.
2.
Check the attic and
discover if there are baby raccoons there. There is also a 90%
probability of these beings having babies. You may also find them.
If you cannot find them, you can stay there for around 15-30 minutes
and wait for a sound. Remove the babies through your hands, but wear
gloves and pillowcase to carry them.
3.
You can use the baby
raccoons as live bait; they can be placed at the back of the big
cage traps, using a trap divider.
It might be hard to prepare, but you have to be sure that all
of the sides of the trap are blocked to prevent them from reaching
in.
4.
As soon as the mother is
trapped, drive them to a faraway place at least 5-10 miles from your
home. This is much better than killing them.
5.
Check the entry holes and
clean them. Make sure you disinfect the entire place and
decontaminate the feces from the attic.
Removing raccoons from the attic is not a simple task. They are mostly
female with the litter of the baby raccoon; they are in the attic to
find a place for the babies and to get food. This is the primary
reason why these foes are breaking into your homes. You must remove
the baby raccoons to be able to remove the adult female. This is
hard and it takes the presence of mind to do this. If you will
remove the babies, use them as a bait for the mother. If you will
leave the mother free, she will break in again and if you will not
remove the babies, they will die of hunger and they will rot in your
attic. Raccoons are among the most destructive creatures in North
America, these are mammals who once lived in the meadows, wooded
areas and nearby the streams until they discovered that they could
also live in the city with humans who have more food available to
survive.
