RACCOON REMOVAL IN DALLAS TEXAS

Raccoons often find themselves in search of places to live that are dry, warm, safe, and appropriate to raise young in. Unfortunately for home and business owners, attics make a perfect location for a raccoon to start a family. By creating openings in soffits and vents, raccoons can gain entry into the attic. Raccoons can damage duct work, wiring, insulation, and woodwork, as well as personal items stored within your attic. As well, raccoons use the attic as a home and restroom, leaving behind urine and feces. They can bring in a host of parasites such as fleas, mites, ticks, and lice, as well as diseases such as roundworm, leptospirosis, and more. Adaptable and curious, raccoons embrace the hustle and bustle of city life every day. The pest’s diet of insects, fruits, vegetables, and garbage makes Dallas and DFW neighborhoods prone to infestations every day. Since the raccoon is a carrier of rabies and canine distemper in this area, people and pets should stay clear.
