Raccoon Removal and Pest Raccoon ControlMost damage caused by raccoons occurs during the early spring when females are pregnant. Females have learned that human dwellings are a great place to raise young. Cool in the summer, warm in the winter. They will destroy fascia boards, tear off shingles, remove siding and chimney caps and take off mushroom vent caps just to gain access to your home.Once inside they will destroy insulation and wires to modify the house to their liking. Raccoon droppings pose another threat. Their droppings may contain Baylisascaris which is Raccoon Roundworm. Please do a Google search on "Raccoon Roundworm" to familiarize yourself. After raccoons have resided in the attic for any period of time insulation damage is a common site. Loose fill insulation will become matted with fecal and urine and compressed allowing heated air to escape into the attic in the winter and hot air to enter the home in the summer.
