Watching raccoon videos on social media may make you laugh but thinking you may have a raccoon or two in your home will certainly not have the same impact. Raccoons are most often found in homes in the spring and fall when they force their way into homes in order to have their babies. Raccoons are nocturnal animals so you may not see them, but if they have taken up residence, there are a few telltale signs.

How to know if you have raccoons

At night, you will likely hear some strange noises like babies crying and scratching or thumping in places like your attic, walls, or chimney. You may also smell them as raccoons tend to leave a very strong musty odor that will linger.

If you suspect raccoons are in your home, take a look at common entry points. You may see physical signs such as damaged roofs and attic vents. Raccoons are great at climbing and are so strong that these areas are often ripped open and damaged extensively to gain access to your home.

Dangers of Raccoons

Although raccoons look like little cute pandas, raccoons are aggressive, especially when defending their young. Raccoons usually force their way into homes when they are looking for a place to have their babies. Please do not go looking for them as raccoons can be confrontational and sometimes even vicious.

Once raccoons are in your home, they are known to tear through walls, rip up insulation, and even chew through wires. They will leave extensive amounts of droppings which look like dog feces. The droppings are very dangerous because they carry diseases like roundworm, which when inhaled are extremely hazardous to humans. Call us at (508) 364-2883 for professional animal clean up.
