Raccoon Removal in Richmond Hill
A raccoon in a chimney or attic needs a careful, planned removal. Clarkson Pest Control helps Richmond Hill homeowners with raccoons. We close the entry points after the raccoons are gone.
Signs of a problem
Paw prints in soft ground or on a deck. Torn vents, soffits, or roof edges. Garbage bins tipped over and trash spread around the yard. Damaged or flattened insulation.
How we do the job
We check the roof, soffits, vents, and chimney for the way in. We check for young animals inside before we start. We live-trap the raccoons and relocate them. The last step is to fix the entry point so raccoons cannot return.
In your area
Richmond Hill has many newer subdivisions, especially in the north. New homes can have uncapped chimneys and small gaps at the roof edge. Raccoons check for these spots. Richmond Hill has a growing number of condos and townhome complexes. Open garbage bins and food waste at townhome complexes attract raccoons. Secure bins help prevent problems. Philips Lake is a small lake in Oak Ridges, in the north of Richmond Hill. Raccoons feed near water, and they move into the attics and chimneys of homes nearby.
