From inspection to removal, and even exclusion and repair, we have the services you need to get rid of raccoons, rodents and other nuisances fast. First, we identify the animal on the property, then use humane methods to remove the animal and secure weak points where more could enter. If damage has been done, we can make those repairs for a complete restoration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<section class=\"image-callout\" aria-label=\"image callout\">\n  <div class=\"photo-wrapper\"\n       style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/__thumbnails\/Detroit-Raccoon-Banner_jpg_1000_557.jpg');\"\n       aria-label=\"' }} \">\n    <div class=\"caption\">\n      <h2 class=\"headline\">Racoon Removal  <\/h2>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <div class=\"desc\">\n    <p>The raccoons in west central Florida search for nuts, fruits, seeds, vegetables, roots, insects, fish, reptiles and junk food. We have an abundance of all these foods. There is no lack of water either. The only thing left is shelter. Raccoons love to find refuge in your attic, in crawlspaces and under decks.<\/p>\n<p>Because raccoons scavenge in the evening and during the night, they can get away with many mischievous activities, like overturning garbage cans, opening trash bags and raiding pet food containers. Consuming so much food means eventually, they will be dropping waste. This usually takes place when they are back in your home, resting.<\/p>\n<p>When you call us to get rid of the raccoons in your home, here\u2019s what happens.<\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"icon-cards\" aria-label=\"icon cards\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n                        <article class=\"col-md-4\" aria-label=\"Inspection\">\n            <div class=\"icon-card-item\">\n              <div class=\"icon\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\"\n                  src=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/Icon_HomeInspection.svg\"\n                  alt=\"House with a magnifying glass icon\">\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h2 class=\"headline\">Inspection<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <p>During the inspection, we determine the severity of the raccoon infestation.

Depending on the situation, a one-way door or excluder valve can be installed. An excluder valve works by allowing the raccoon to leave but blocks its reentry. The choice of device is largely dependent on the season and location of the raccoons on your property. Direct capture is not commonly used because raccoons are a rabies vector species. If we must trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the raccoons and we check traps frequently, based on state laws.<\/p>\n\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/article>\n\n                  <article class=\"col-md-4\" aria-label=\"Repairs\">\n            <div class=\"icon-card-item\">\n              <div class=\"icon\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\"\n                  src=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/Icon_HomeRepairs.svg\"\n                  alt=\"House with a wrench decoration logo\">\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h2 class=\"headline\">Repairs<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <p>We provide a wide range of repair and restoration services.

When they dig in your yard and on your property, they can cause a surprising amount of damage within a short period of time. Armadillos have been known to ruin flowerbeds, kill plants and trees, and destroy other landscaped areas in their search for food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In addition to damaging your lawn and flower beds, armadillos may dig under your sidewalks, housing foundation, and patios. Digging below these surfaces can weaken and crack the foundation, causing increased danger for you and your family, as well as additional repair costs.<\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"icon-cards\" aria-label=\"icon cards\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n                        <article class=\"col-md-4\" aria-label=\"Inspection\">\n            <div class=\"icon-card-item\">\n              <div class=\"icon\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\"\n                  src=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/Icon_HomeInspection.svg\"\n                  alt=\"House with a magnifying glass icon\">\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h2 class=\"headline\">Inspection<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <p>Our experts understand the habits and habitats of armadillos.

From inspection to removal\u2014and even exclusion and repair\u2014we have the services you need to get rid of raccoons, rodents, and other nuisances fast. First, we identify the animal on the property, then use humane methods to remove the animal and secure weak points where more could enter. If damage has been done, we can make those repairs for a complete restoration.

Based on what you have seen, heard and smelled, we start the inspection where you have noticed signs of animal activity. Evidence of animals inside your home include nests, dens, feces, and animal tracks. We investigate the exterior of your home looking for possible entry points, any evidence of animal damage, tracks, fur, animal waste, or rub marks.<\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/services\/residential\/\"\n                     aria-label=\"Wildlife \"\n                     target=\"_blank\"\n                     rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n                    Wildlife \n                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"chevron-right\"\n                         class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chevron-right fa-w-10\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"\n                         viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\">\n                      <path fill=\"currentColor\"\n                            d=\"M285.476 272.971L91.132 467.314c-9.373 9.373-24.569 9.373-33.941 0l-22.667-22.667c-9.357-9.357-9.375-24.522-.04-33.901L188.505 256 34.484 101.255c-9.335-9.379-9.317-24.544.04-33.901l22.667-22.667c9.373-9.373 24.569-9.373 33.941 0L285.475 239.03c9.373 9.372 9.373 24.568.001 33.941z\"><\/path>\n                    <\/svg>\n                  <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/article>\n                            <article class=\"col-lg-4 col-md-6 col-xs-12\">\n            <div class=\"steps-card-item\">\n              <div class=\"photo\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/Card_Step22.jpg');\" aria-label=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/Card_Step22.jpg\">\n                <div class=\"step\">STEP <span class=\"num\">2<\/span><\/div>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h3 class=\"headline\">Removal<\/h3>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <div class=\"desc\">We use several methods to humanely remove the animal from your home. Depending on the species, the number of animals, and the condition of your property, we develop a custom wildlife removal plan. Humane wildlife removal strategies include animal traps, one-way doors, and repellents. Once we guarantee all animals are gone, we implement exclusion techniques. Exclusion techniques provide a safe, long-term solution to nuisance wildlife in your home. We create barriers to prevent animals from getting to resources. We only apply exclusions once we are sure all animals are gone from your home.<\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/services\/wildlife-control\/\"\n                     aria-label=\"Wildlife Removal \"\n                     target=\"_blank\"\n                     rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n                    Wildlife Removal \n                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"chevron-right\"\n                         class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chevron-right fa-w-10\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"\n                         viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\">\n                      <path fill=\"currentColor\"\n                            d=\"M285.476 272.971L91.132 467.314c-9.373 9.373-24.569 9.373-33.941 0l-22.667-22.667c-9.357-9.357-9.375-24.522-.04-33.901L188.505 256 34.484 101.255c-9.335-9.379-9.317-24.544.04-33.901l22.667-22.667c9.373-9.373 24.569-9.373 33.941 0L285.475 239.03c9.373 9.372 9.373 24.568.001 33.941z\"><\/path>\n                    <\/svg>\n                  <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/article>\n                            <article class=\"col-lg-4 col-md-6 col-xs-12\">\n            <div class=\"steps-card-item\">\n              <div class=\"photo\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/CritterControlstep3-min.jpg');\" aria-label=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/CritterControlstep3-min.jpg\">\n                <div class=\"step\">STEP <span class=\"num\">3<\/span><\/div>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h3 class=\"headline\">Exclusion and Repair<\/h3>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <div class=\"desc\">Wildlife will damage your home. Exclusion techniques repair any damage the animal causes getting into your home. Inside your home, animals build nests and dens out of readily available material. They will create runs through the insulation. Rodents will gnaw on anything including electrical wires and pipes. Animals can also spread diseases. We apply sanitation agents to clean up feces and urine. Mammals can host pests like fleas, ticks, and mites. Ectoparasite treatments exterminate those pests so you don\u2019t become their next host.<\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/services\/wildlife-exclusion\/\"\n                     aria-label=\"Prevention and Repair \"\n                     target=\"_blank\"\n                     rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n                    Prevention and Repair \n                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"chevron-right\"\n                         class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chevron-right fa-w-10\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"\n                         viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\">\n                      <path fill=\"currentColor\"\n                            d=\"M285.476 272.971L91.132 467.314c-9.373 9.373-24.569 9.373-33.941 0l-22.667-22.667c-9.357-9.357-9.375-24.522-.04-33.901L188.505 256 34.484 101.255c-9.335-9.379-9.317-24.544.04-33.901l22.667-22.667c9.373-9.373 24.569-9.373 33.941 0L285.475 239.03c9.373 9.372 9.373 24.568.001 33.941z\"><\/path>\n                    <\/svg>\n                  <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/article>\n              <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"checkmark-callout\" aria-label=\"checkmark callouts\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"section-intro\">\n      <h2 class=\"section-title\">The Critter Control Difference<\/h2>\n\n    <\/div>\n                  <div class=\"checkmark-callout-item\">\n          <div class=\"icon\">\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"check\"\n                 class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-check fa-w-16\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"\n                 viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\">\n              <path\n                d=\"M173.898 439.404l-166.4-166.4c-9.997-9.997-9.997-26.206 0-36.204l36.203-36.204c9.997-9.998 26.207-9.998 36.204 0L192 312.69 432.095 72.596c9.997-9.997 26.207-9.997 36.204 0l36.203 36.204c9.997 9.997 9.997 26.206 0 36.204l-294.4 294.401c-9.998 9.997-26.207 9.997-36.204-.001z\"><\/path>\n            <\/svg>\n          <\/div>\n          <div class=\"desc\">\n            <span class=\"title\">Trained Specialists<\/span>\n            <span class=\"text\">Animal removal is a highly sophisticated job.
