Raccoon Removal & Damage Repair

In Connecticut, it is very common for raccoons to live and nest in attics due to New England climate. At APX Wildlife Specialists, we provide safe, effective, and long-term raccoon solutions designed to fully protect your property.

Common Raccoon Problems

Raccoons are strong, intelligent, and destructive when gaining access to a structure.

Common entry points include:

    •    Rooflines

    •    Soffits

    •    Attic vents

    •    Chimneys

    •    Weak or damaged roofing areas

Once inside, raccoons will:

    •    Tear apart insulation for nesting

    •    Damage wood, ductwork, and structural components

    •    Create large, hazardous messes

    •    Expand entry holes for repeated access

Signs of raccoon activity include:

    •    Heavy thumping or walking noises (especially at night)

    •    Loud movement or shifting in the attic

    •    Visible damage to rooflines or vents

    •    Strong odors from waste buildup

During birthing season, it’s common for a mother raccoon to den inside attics—making the problem more urgent and complex.

Health & Safety Risks

Raccoons aren’t just destructive—they can also pose health risks. Raccoons are the #1 rabies carrier in the Northeast. Their droppings may carry diseases such as Raccoon Roundworm, along with bacteria and parasites that can affect humans and pets.

Our Raccoon Removal Process

At APX Wildlife Specialists, we don’t just remove raccoons—we eliminate the problem at its source.

Our process includes:

    •    Full inspection of the home

    •    Identification of all entry points

    •    Safe and humane raccoon removal

    •    Removal of nesting materials when necessary

    •    Professional exclusion and sealing

    •    Reinforcement to prevent future entry

We focus on long-term protection, not temporary fixes.

Raccoon damage escalates quickly, especially if a den is established. The longer they remain, the greater the damage and health risks.

If you’re hearing noises or noticing damage around your home, act now.
