Pittsburgh Raccoon Removal
Raccoons are clever and persistent creatures, and it's often hard to get them off your property for good. Critter Control of Greater Pittsburgh has a group of experienced technicians that will take care of your raccoon issues.
We believe that equally as important as raccoon removal is raccoon prevention, and we are able to perform both of these services. Keeping the crafty wildlife critters out will often require both.
Common Raccoon Problems
Raccoons can be responsible for a variety of problems for Greater Pittsburgh homeowners, including:
- Home Damage
- Chances are that raccoons are responsible for the majority of roof damage. Raccoons will climb onto your roof in search of an ideal nesting area (often your attic). They've even been known to tear shingles off in search of the perfect nest.
- Insulation Damage
- The main purpose of insulation for raccoons is nesting material; after all, insulation is soft and excellent at retaining heat. Unfortunately for your attic, damaged insulation can lead to ineffective insulation, which also means a hit to your wallet.
- Stains
- Wherever raccoons choose to make their nest in your home, you can be sure there is a pile of waste nearby. Raccoons prefer to separate the living and latrine area, so one area will have an exceptional amount of raccoon poop.
- Transmission of Parasites & Diseases
- Raccoon roundworm is contracted by ingesting raccoon feces, so we do not recommend you clean up the raccoon feces yourself to be on the safe side.
- Landscape & Garden Damages
