Local knowledge

Raccoons in Sharon Hill

Close-built streets

Sharon Hill is under a square mile, with homes set close together, so a raccoon on one roof can reach the next.

Porches and garages

Raccoons climb to the roof, while opossums and skunks settle under Sharon Hill porches and in garages. We work out which it is before we set a trap.

What to look for

Signs it is a raccoon

  • Heavy thumping or walking in the ceiling after dark
  • Chattering, purring or crying in the chimney or the attic in spring
  • A soffit panel, roof vent or shingles pulled loose at the roof edge
  • Trash cans tipped over and bags torn open
  • A pile of droppings in one spot on the roof, the deck or the attic floor

Before we arrive

Until we get there

  • Do not block the hole. If young are inside, the mother will tear a new way in to reach them.
  • Do not light a fire if you hear animals in the chimney.
  • Keep pets in and away from the animal, and do not try to catch it yourself.
  • Keep trash in cans with locking lids until the job is done.

Raccoon removal in Sharon Hill

How the job goes

1 · Find the den

We find where the raccoons sleep and the opening they use to come and go.

2 · Look for young

From March to July we check for young before anything else, so none are left behind.

3 · Take them out

We trap the adults, take out the young by hand and make sure the space is empty.

4 · Seal and repair

We close the opening with steel mesh or sheet metal and tell you about any other damage we found.

Price

What changes the price

We tell you the price of the first visit on the phone before we come out. It depends on your ZIP code. Each return visit to check a trap has its own price, and we tell you that on the phone too.

  • Attic, chimney, garage or outdoors
  • Whether there is a litter of young
  • How high the opening is
  • How much of the roof edge needs closing

Questions people ask

Questions about raccoons in Sharon Hill

My neighbor has raccoons too. Is it the same one?

It can be. With houses this close, one raccoon can use several roofs. We look at the roofline next door as well as yours.
