Although generally woodland and forest dwellers in this region of the country, wild raccoons are becoming more and more comfortable living among humans in urban, city, and rural areas. They have come to learn overtime that these areas offer plentiful sources of food and shelter. For this reason, raccoons have become more of a nuisance wildlife problem for home and property owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Raccoons cause structural damages to lawns and properties, and pose health risks for humans and pets. They are not a welcome visitor and for good reason. Not only can raccoons carry deadly and infectious diseases that can be transmitted to other mammals, they can attack or leave behind massive and costly messes in attics, sheds, garages, porches, crawl spaces, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Furbearers in Kentucky <\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>In Kentucky, raccoons are classified as \u201cfurbearers.\u201d Under state law, if wild raccoons are damaging or harming a property, landowners or their tenants have the legal right to trap or take them at any time. Outside of one\u2019s property, Hoosiers can obtain a hunting or trapping license and take raccoons during the appropriate season. This goes for all furbearers, including foxes, coyotes, skunks, beavers, opossum, muskrats, mink, and weasels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The law mandates that all trapped furbearers must be relocated within the same county, or euthanized. A person cannot relocate and release a trapped raccoon on another person\u2019s property without the permission of the actual property owner. It also decrees that any tenant or property owner that traps and relocates or euthanizes a wild raccoon for these reasons is legally obligated to report this catch to the Kentucky Department of Natural Resources (KDNR) within 72 hours of trapping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">If you have nuisance raccoons on your property, or somewhere within, call a licensed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raccoonremovallouisvilleky.com\/raccoon-control-louisville-ky.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Louisville raccoon control (opens in a new tab)\">Louisville raccoon control<\/a> service for safe and humane assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Louisville Raccoon Removal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Call Louisville Raccoon Removal at 502-553-7622<\/strong> for prompt and humane service you can trust.
