How to Permanently Get Rid of Unwanted Raccoons in Your Home

Getting rid of raccoons in your home can be a tricky process! The best way to permanently get rid of these furry critters is to take preventative actions(,) as well as employ humane techniques for removal. Firstly, it's important to make sure that there are no food sources or shelter available for the animals. Make sure all garbage cans have tightly fitting lids and that any pet food is stored indoors.(Furthermore,) check your property for any holes, cracks, or other openings where raccoons could gain access to your home. If you find any(,) seal them tightly with hardware cloth or caulk.

 

Additionally, avoid feeding wildlife on your property. Feeding wild animals encourages them to stay and reproduce near your house.(Moreover,) if you feed them(,) they will become dependent on it and continue returning over time.(On the other hand) you can also repel raccoons by applying ammonia-soaked rags around potential entry points or using commercial repellents like mothballs or predator urine.

 

If prevention methods don't work, then trapping the animal may be necessary.(In this case) Contact a professional trapper in order to handle the situation safely and humanely. To ensure that the animal doesn't return after being released in another area, remove its scent marks from around your house by scrubbing walls with vinegar water and using air fresheners inside the building.

 

Finally, always remember never to approach a wild animal since they may become aggressive when scared (or) feel threatened. By taking these steps you can successfully and safely get rid of unwelcome raccoons from your home!
