We are Connecticut's top experts in wildlife and raccoon control. We are not a typical Hartford raccoon control or pest control company. We don't treat wild animals like insects, because they are not! You can't just use poison to get rid of them. You also can't just set a few traps on the ground and call it good. Each situation is unique. And remember, if you have raccoons living in your house, it is almost certainly a female with a litter of young inside. These juveniles must be removed by hand, or they will starve to death and die. And after they are gone, the entry holes into the house must be sealed with professional repairs. Unlike most Hartford pest control, we focus on complete and permanent solutions, by following these steps:
- Inspect the entire house, ground to roof, and the attic
- Seal shut all entry areas with professional grade steel
- If in attic, we remove the baby raccoons by hand
- Technical and human raccoon trapping appropriate to situation
- When necessary, we clean raccoon droppings and replace insulation
Hartford Raccoon Control Tip: Can A Raccoon Break Through A Ceiling In Your Home?
Raccoons are elusive creatures that can become a pest animal in domestic properties, and one of the main aspects about how a raccoon can be a problem is that they will generally stay in the areas of a property where you won't see them. Probably the most common area of a home that raccoons can find their way into is the attic, and they will often make a nest in the attic where for a female they can give birth to and raise a litter of baby raccoons.
The Materials Used In The Ceiling
There are a variety of different materials that are used in the construction of domestic properties, and one of the key features for the materials used in the ceiling is that they need to be light enough not to require too much support. This means that while the walls and roof materials are very strong and sturdy, the internal ceilings are usually plasterboard or similar materials that are light and strong enough to support light fittings, but don't usually need to be too tough.
A Raccoon's Claws And Teeth
Raccoons are adaptable creatures that have evolved to be able to survive in woodland areas, and in rural areas they will often need to gnaw and claw at the wood of trees to make themselves a suitable nesting spot. This certainly means that if they do find their way into the attic, they can used their claws and teeth to expand on any holes that are already present. The plasterboards and surfaces that are used to create ceilings are vulnerable to a raccoon, and there is no doubt that their claws and teeth are strong enough to be able to gnaw through the ceiling.
How Likely Is A Raccoon To Make A Hole In The Ceiling?The key question here is that there needs to be a reason for raccoons to make a hole in the ceiling, and while they may be attracted by scents of food from below, they are often prevented from making such holes because of the noise of people being active below as well. It is actually fairly rare for raccoons to make a hole in the ceiling, as the sound will make them unlikely to gnaw and dig downwards, but it does happen from time to time.
How To Get Rid Of A Raccoon Inside The Living Quarters Of Your Home
Dealing with a raccoon infestation promptly is something that is important to do, as raccoons can create a whole load of damage if they are allowed free reign to explore the attic and the area around your property. The best way to deal with a raccoon problem is to use traps to catch these animals, and these should be placed in the attic or other areas where they are active with a little bait such as pet food to attract the raccoon. Once caught, the best option is to relocate the raccoons well away from your home, and also well clear of any other domestic properties as well.
Repairs After A Raccoon Infestation
Once you have caught and relocated the raccoon, it is important to make sure you carry out the appropriate repairs to prevent more raccoons from getting in. Any holes in the ceiling should be repaired, and any insulation replaced to ensure your property is warm and cozy. After you have repaired the ceiling, you should examine the roofline of your home and make sure that any holes created by the raccoons for getting in and out are also repaired with appropriate materials as well.
