Our Wildlife Control Process to Remove & Prevent Raccoons
Raccoons are clever and curious creatures—but when they make their way into your attic, crawl space, or yard, they can quickly become a serious nuisance. At Nest Pest Control, we specialize in humane raccoon removal and long-term prevention services for homeowners and businesses across the National Capital Region.
Our wildlife control process begins with a detailed property inspection. We look for signs of raccoon activity such as droppings, paw prints, damaged insulation, or chewed entry points. Once we identify where raccoons are nesting or entering, our trained specialists install humane traps or one-way doors to safely remove them.
After removal, we clean and sanitize the affected areas to reduce health risks and eliminate odors that could attract other animals. We also seal off entry points and reinforce vulnerable areas of your home to help keep raccoons out for good. Whether it’s a single raccoon or a recurring problem, we deliver customized, effective solutions that protect your space without harming the wildlife.

How does Nest Pest Control safely and humanely remove raccoons from my property?
We use humane traps and one-way exclusion devices to guide raccoons out of your home without harming them. Once the raccoons are safely removed, we relocate them to a suitable natural environment.
What are the signs that a raccoon is living in my attic or yard?
You may hear scratching or thumping noises at night, notice insulation damage, droppings, or tipped-over trash bins. Raccoons also leave behind muddy paw prints and strong odors when nesting indoors.

Yes, raccoons can be aggressive when cornered and may carry diseases like rabies, leptospirosis, and raccoon roundworm. They also pose health risks through their droppings and nesting materials.
Does Nest Pest Control provide exclusion services to prevent raccoons from returning?
Absolutely. We seal entry points, reinforce weak areas, and install exclusion devices to block raccoons from re-entering your home or structure. Prevention is a key part of our process.
How can I deter raccoons from nesting near my home?
Keep trash bins sealed, remove pet food and water from outside, and trim overhanging tree branches. Nest Pest Control can also provide expert advice and install barriers to keep raccoons away long term.
