How to Get Rid of Raccoons in a Barn

Posted on March 27, 2019 by raccoonremovallouisvilleky

Barns serve many important purposes, especially when they house livestock. With such valuables inside your barn, it is can be quite distressing discovering animal damages inside. Boats, equipment, tools, cars, furniture, lumber, materials, and more can all be destroyed by nuisance wildlife. Here in Kentucky, one of the most common barn-dwellers among the native nuisance wildlife are raccoons. This is partly to do with the fact that raccoons have highly dexterous paws that can open windows, doors, latches, handles, and even locks, much like human hands can.

If you are dealing with nuisance raccoons in or around your barn, you can feel better knowing that there are some simple ways to thwart raccoon activity without causing them harm. Continue reading for some tips on how to get rid of raccoons in barns.

☑ Invest in Better Locks

If you are lucky enough to have a modern barn that was constructed with quality lumber and parts, you will likely have working barn doors. However, doors are not enough to keep out intelligent and crafty critters like raccoons out. In addition to ensure your barn doors are sturdy and close all the way, it will help to invest in some better locks. Use combination locks that cannot be opened or unhooked by raccoons. These will do the trick to keeping raccoons out if they are using the door as their entry point.

☑ Remove All Food and Water

Although shelter is likely the primary motivation for raccoons to access your barn, food and water also play a part. If you eliminate all food and water sources inside the barn, it will have a big influence on the level of raccoon activity. However, many people have barns solely for the purpose of storing feed and other forms of foodstuffs, making this tip moot. In this case, you can remove all food and water sources outside of the barn, and hope that it makes a difference.

☑ Install Motion-Detection Lights

Raccoons are more afraid of you than you are of them. They will jump and run at the smallest startling noise, or light. Motion-detection lighting is cheap, easy to install, and does wonders when it comes to abating nuisance raccoon activity outdoors. Best of all, it is harmless and humane, and can also keep other nuisance wildlife away, like skunks, opossum, squirrels, and more. Like motion lighting, automatic sprinkler systems work well too. As an alternative to motion lighting and sprinklers, you can place a radio inside your barn and leave it on a talk station, overnight. This will make raccoons think humans are around, and will steer clear of the area.

☑ Contact a Wildlife Removal Company

When all else fails, you need professional intervention. Call 502-553-7622 if you are experiencing ongoing raccoon problems in Louisville, Kentucky and throughout its surrounding areas. We are DNR licensed and insured, and provide both residential and commercial raccoon control services.

Choosing Between a Liquid or Granular Repellent for Raccoons

Posted on March 12, 2019 by raccoonremovallouisvilleky

When nuisance raccoons have you feeling hopeless and helpless, perhaps it is time to consider your options for safe and humane raccoon control. There are several things you can do to make your property less attractive to raccoons, primarily environmental modifications like removing food and water sources, locking up trashcans, planting cucumbers or marigolds, and installing garden fences. In fact, read our blog, “How to Keep Raccoons Away From Your House” to learn all the things you can do to help thwart nuisance raccoon activity on your property.

As an option for environmental modification, many homeowners are opting for a more instant solution to repel nuisance raccoons, which is why store-bought repellents are becoming more and more popular these days. Of such repellents, your two umbrella options will be to choose between a liquid-based formula and a granule-based formula. Before choosing a product and implementing an application, be sure to learn your facts about both types of repellents.

Continue reading to learn what you need to know about liquid and granule raccoon repellent products, as well as, how to make your own, homemade, non-toxic raccoon repellent.

Liquid Repellents

Liquid repellents come in liquid form, and are generally intended to be mixed with water to create a spray-able solution. This allows you to target specific areas, like bird feeders, play sets, trashcans, windows, compost piles, and more. It can also be used to create an invisible perimeter around your entire property, which is best implemented with a sprayer, but generally, granule repellents are best for that job.

Granule Repellents

Granule repellent products come in granules, like little beads or balls. These are meant to be sprinkled or dusted around the perimeter of your yard, garden, or other infested area to create a defense barrier against nuisance raccoons and other intervening wildlife. Although effective, it is not recommended for those who have outdoor pets or children. These granules can cause illness if ingested by dogs, cats, or children.

Homemade, Non-Toxic Raccoon Repellent

To avoid potential hazards associated with chemical repellents, you might want to try making your own homemade solution using common household ingredients like cayenne pepper and garlic. Read our article, “How to Make a Safe Raccoon Repellent” to learn what you need and how to get started. You will discover which scents and tastes raccoons hate, and how to apply them safely to your property without jeopardizing the health and well-being of your loved ones, including pets!

How Do Raccoons Get Inside Homes?

Posted on February 13, 2019 by raccoonremovallouisvilleky

When raccoons invade a house, they go on to cause a long list of structural damages. Not only do they rip through insulation, floorboards, electrical wiring, and window screens, they also soil and saturate everything in sight with their droppings and rotted food. So once you discover a raccoon infestation, chances are, damage has most certainly been done.

Faced with the realization that you need emergency raccoon removal service, followed by an ambiguous degree of renovation, your first thought might be about your home’s exposure to wildlife intrusions. Just how do raccoons get into a house? How can they accomplish such a sophisticated feat? Continue reading to learn the answer.

Raccoon Intrusions

Raccoons have human-like paws that are highly dexterous. Not only can they easily grasp, pull, twist, and lift, they also have long, sharp claws that provide them with a hefty advantage in terms of home intrusions. With these mighty paws and claws, raccoons can open doors, windows, and even unlock locks. Being an innately intelligent mammalian species, they can figure out puzzles, solve problems, and keep a good memory. All of these attributes plays into their ability to invade our homes.

If you leave a window or garage door open at night, that is an easy way in for any wild animal; but raccoons will find clever ways inside, even if all of your windows and doors are shut. Common target areas for raccoons to inspect for access include loose or missing roof shingles, crumbling mortar, rotted siding, chimneys, roof vents, and similar entry points. To learn how to protect your home from wildlife intrusions, read our article, “Animal-Proof Your Property Before Raccoons Begin Breeding this Spring” and get your house ready for nuisance raccoons.

What to Do if You Find Raccoons

As soon as you discover a raccoon, or a group of raccoons, inside of your home, your first priority is safety; so get all pets and people away from the area, and be sure it is secluded and secured. Next, immediately contact a wildlife control and rescue company for emergency raccoon removal services. They will show up promptly to extract the raccoons, safely and humanely.

Will an Outdoor Cat Keep Raccoons Away?

Posted on January 29, 2019 by raccoonremovallouisvilleky

Perhaps you have a barn cat. Or just a pet cat that knows exactly where home is, but wanders around outside exploring as they please. Regardless of your cat situation, if they are an outdoor pet, is it likely that you have seen them catch a few mice or frogs before.

Maybe this pattern has led you to believe that your outdoor cat will also fend off other nuisance pests and wildlife. And although cats can scare away squirrels and rabbits, there are some things in nature cats are not meant to take on, and raccoons are one of them.

Continue reading to learn what you need to know about outdoor cats and wild raccoons.

Emergency Raccoon Removal and Control 502-553-7622

Raccoons are dangerous to pets and people. Cats should never be allowed to attack or fend off raccoons under any circumstances. If you know there is raccoon activity around your property, do not let your cat (or dog) outdoors unsupervised after the sun goes down. Here are the primary dangers of raccoons:

Raccoon Diseases

Raccoons are known carriers of several infectious and highly-contagious diseases. Among these various illnesses, one of the scariest is Rabies. Rabies is a virus that, once infected, is fatal 100% of the time. Other diseases and illnesses include Roundworm, Distemper, Leptospirosis, lice, mites, ticks, fleas, and more. Not only can these diseases and pests be transferred to another animal, such as your pet cat, they can also be transmitted to humans.

Pet Vaccinations

Cats and dogs are common victims of raccoon attacks because they are usually curious and like to sniff. As a result, thousands of pets have contracted Rabies and other infectious diseases from raccoons and other wild animal species. For this reason, it is vital to have your pet (cat or dog) vaccinated annually against Rabies and more. Read our recent blog, “What You Need to Know About Rabies Vaccinations” to learn more.

Are Raccoons Dangerous?

First and foremost, raccoons are known carriers of several viruses and infectious diseases, including serious ones like Rabies, Leptospirosis, Distemper, and raccoon roundworm, as well as less serious ones, like lice, fleas, ticks, and more. This alone makes them a danger to both people and pets. To make matters worse, raccoons may attack a person or animal if they feel threatened or provoked. This is a common way Rabies and other infectious diseases are passed along by raccoons. It is important to never approach or tamper with a raccoon under any circumstances.

How Did Raccoons Get Inside My House?

Raccoons have very dexterous, human-like paws that allow them to grasp and manipulate objects. They use this ability to pry their way into attics by ripping away roof shingles and prying open weakened wood boards. Roof top areas near the gutter is a common place for raccoons to look for entry points into a house. They have been known to tear off metal flashing components on the edge of roofs to expose openings beneath shingles and plywood. They are also known to scope out vulnerable or weak areas of a home they can easily pry open to get inside.

What Do I Do if There is a Raccoon in My Garage?

Never, under any circumstances, attempt to approach, touch, trap, or tamper with a wild raccoon. If one gets trapped in your garage, shed, or other exterior-attached area of your house, just open the doors and wait for them to leave. If they do not leave after 12 hours, contact a local and licensed raccoon removal company for 24 hour emergency assistance.

Will Raccoons Damage My House?

Raccoons that have made their way into a house can cause a significant amount of damage. The combination of their urine, droppings, and rotted food creates an odorous mess that can make its way into the living quarters of your home. Additionally, they can use their human-like paws to grasp, rip, and pry. They tear down attic insulation, chew up electrical wiring, soil floorboards and ceilings with their droppings, and more. However, even if raccoons cannot access the inner parts of a home or building, they can still cause a load of structural damages to a property. They will tear up lawns looking for grubs, wipe out gardens, pry off siding, rip off roof shingles, rummage through garbage cans, steal bird seed and pet food, and so much more. Really, the extent of damage raccoons can cause to your property are endless, whether inside or out.

How Can I Prevent Raccoon Activity Around My House?

In order to thwart raccoon activity around your property, you will need to follow some important guidelines: Keep garbage cans locked up, or keep the lids sealed shut, and only take your cans out to the driveway on the morning of trash pickup day, and never the night before. Never leave pet food or water bowls outside. If you store pet food a garage or shed, be sure it is in an air-tight container and your garage or shed is non-accessible by animals. Install motion lighting on patios, porches, and garages. Or consider installing a sound machine to scare raccoons away. Install a fence around gardens. Keep trash and litter out of your yard. Sprinkle your yard with ground red pepper, and then soak cotton balls with ammonia and place them around your property. Be care if you have outdoor pets. Remove bird and squirrel feeders, as well as, bird baths. Pass up on the Koi pond. They will eat your expensive fish! Have a professional raccoon control company inspect your property for vulnerable areas, and allow them to seal everything up!

Odd Places You Might Find Raccoons Nesting

Posted on December 13, 2018 by raccoonremovallouisvilleky

Raccoon Removal and Control 502-553-7622

Raccoons are not a hibernating species. However, they do exhibit behaviors that are quite similar to hibernation, but for the majority of the years, raccoons remain active and curious. But even though raccoons do not enter a state of hibernacula (deep sleep with lowered body temperature and heart rate), they do still need cozy shelter to make their nests during the colder seasons. And sometimes, the places they choose are pretty odd. Continue reading to learn some strange places raccoons are known to nest, and what to do if you discover hiding raccoons on your property.

Common Raccoon Habitats

Primary habitats for raccoons in nature include tree cavities, hollowed tree trunks, rock dens, old animal burrows, and similar sheltered areas. As for urban and suburban areas, raccoons have a whole separate set of unique options. Most often, raccoons are found infesting residential and commercial properties; usually in attics, crawl spaces, wall voids, garages, and outdoor structures like sheds and storage units. Here, they will cause an extreme amount of damage over the winter season.

But if raccoons cannot find access inside a home or building, they will look for alternative places to nest for the winter. Some of these places are quite unique, making raccoons a very thrifty species. After all, they are incredible intelligent and retain memory well. That is why raccoons tend to be a persistent problem for property owners; they remember where the good food sources are and will continue to pillage them until they are stopped.

Here are some interesting and odd places you might find raccoons nesting this season:

➥ Stationary Vehicles – It may seem very unsuspecting, but the undercarriages of vehicles can make a cozy little shelter for wildlife. Raccoons, opossums, squirrels, and chipmunks are common nuisance wildlife found nesting underneath an abandoned, stationary, or junk vehicle. Be sure to take extra precaution when checking your vehicle for nesting animals.

➥ Tree Houses – The kids may have outgrown the tree house you built for them years ago, but there are several animals that consider it a gem. Raccoons are one of those animals! They have long claws and dexterous paws that give them excellent climbing ability, allowing them to access tree house with ease. If your kids have not entered the tree house in several months, it is important that you check it for animal nests before it is back in use.

➥ Tall Grass Beds – That tall grass we sometimes plant on our properties can be easily trampled down in the center, creating a circular shelter with tall grassy walls. Animals like raccoons, skunks, and opossum are well-known for using these grasses for nesting areas. It may look like normal grass on the outside, but at a closer glance, you may find a nest in the middle!

➥ Empty Hot Tubs and Pools – If you have a hot tub or swimming pool out of use, be sure it is secured well. Raccoons love to use these vacant spots to make their nests for the winter. And it is certainly not fun for the homeowner since they get quite the surprise when it comes time to re-fill their hot tubs and pools!

Additional Spots You May Find a Hiding Raccoon:

⇢ Mailboxes
⇢ Empty Planters
⇢ Barns
⇢ Chicken Coops
⇢ Roofs
⇢ Enclosed Jungle Gym Slides
⇢ Log Piles
⇢ Chimneys
