AAAC Wildlife Removal of Treasure Coast: The Dos and Donts of Raccoon Removal and Control – Yahoo Finance

Palm Bay, Florida, Aug. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Raccoons in Treasure Coast are an all too familiar problem. Yet when you have a raccoon tearing up your attic or causing havoc in your yard, what should you do?

The trouble is raccoons are intelligent animals. They cause damage, they leave potentially dangerous droppings, and they can be nasty if confronted. Trying to remove or control them yourself, without knowledge or experience in pest control, is a risk not worth taking.

Owned by Alex Lauffenburger, well known in the industry for his passion for wildlife and expertise in removal techniques, he and his team understand the importance of having a safe and secure home, and just how much damage and danger raccoons can provoke.

Below, Alex outlines his dos and donts of raccoon removal and control:

Do contact a wildlife pest control service as soon as the critter has been discovered

As soon as youre aware of a raccoon problem in your home, contact a raccoon control wildlife pest control service such as AAAC Wildlife Removal of Treasure Coast. Raccoons can cause huge damage to your home, gnawing through plumbing, staining your attic with excrement, and tearing up insulation. The longer you leave it, the worse the damage can become.

Dont use a wildlife pest control service that uses extermination tactics like poison

Not only is it inhumane but bringing in poisonous substances to your home is a danger. Raccoons dont tend to lay dormant and can quite easily move around your home and track the poison with them. This is a huge risk for you, your family, and your pets, and it makes the raccoons desperate for water, resulting in even more damage to your plumbing.

Do ask a licensed operator to trap them

Humane traps are available in the form of one way and two-way trap doors. The idea that you set bait in the trap (something the raccoons cant resist such as pet food or marshmallows) and once they go for the bait, the door closes behind them. AAAC Wildlife Removal of Treasure Coast are a licensed and certified by the state of Florida.
