Easily available food often attracts raccoons to your yard. Raccoons are omnivorous, eating both plants and animals. Plant foods include fruits, berries, nuts, acorns, corn, and other types of grain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The natural habitat for raccoons is wooded areas close to water. Hollow trees are the natural den sites for raccoons. But they have adapted to the urban and suburban habitats in New Jersey.&nbsp; Raccoons will den in the space under a porch or deck, inside sheds, climb into chimneys, or in your attic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Female <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/blog\/identifying-raccoon-damage-in-the-attic-in-south-jersey\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/blog\/identifying-raccoon-damage-in-the-attic-in-south-jersey\/\">raccoons can destroy and enter parts of your home<\/a>, especially your attic, in order to create a suitable place to raise their young.\u00a0Raccoons usually mate between late January and mid-March. New Jersey homeowners start to notice a raccoon litter in April or May.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-raccoon-problems\">Raccoon Problems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Fire Hazard<br><\/summary>\n<p>Chewed electrical wires can create serious risks.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Structural Damage<\/summary>\n<p>Raccoons tear insulation, rip vents, and weaken roofs. <\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<p>Raccoons don&#8217;t just cause a mess or disrupt your sleep.

Keep 12 inches around the trap clear. Raccoons have extremely dexterous front paws with five long, tapered fingers and long nails. Raccoons destroy everything they can get their hands on when trapped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place your live trap in areas where you see signs of raccoon activity. Inside your home look for signs of tracks or paw prints and raccoon droppings. Outside of your home, look for raccoon droppings, dens, or animal runways.&nbsp;Setting multiple traps in different locations along their pathways can yield better results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secure the trap and protect the animal. If you set a trap on the roof, make sure it is secure! Unless the trap can be stabilized, it is not safe for a raccoon to be in a trap on a pitched roof. You should use a trap that has some covering to protect the animal from the elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bait the trap with sweet items to reduce non-target captures. You can purchase sweet pasts. Fruits like cherries or grapes, marshmallows or jelly work effectively as raccoon bait.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Direct capture is not commonly used because raccoons are a rabies vector species. If legal, a healthy trapped raccoon will be relocated with written permission. When babies are removed from an attic, our wildlife specialists seek help from a local wildlife rehabilitation center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raccoon Control &amp; Exclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Preventative exclusion services are the most effective raccoon control. After raccoon removal, it is imperative to seal all entry points to prevent future entry. Ensuring you don\u2019t create a home for raccoons outside your property will also help prevent attracting raccoons. However, habitat modification will become very important for prevention after dealing with a raccoon invasion. Repellents offer temporary solutions. Raccoons grow accustomed to frightening devices, and there are no toxicants regulated for raccoons.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Job Stories\/New Jersey\/__thumbnails\/Broken-Attic-Fan-Raccoons-NJ_jpg_300_225.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18635\"\/><\/figure>\n                    <script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n                    {\n                        \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n                        \"@type\": \"ImageObject\",\n                        \"contentUrl\": \"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Job%20Stories\/New%20Jersey\/__thumbnails\/Broken-Attic-Fan-Raccoons-NJ_jpg_300_225.jpg\",\n                        \"width\": \"\",\n                        \"height\": \"\",\n                        \"caption\": \"\",\n                        \"description\": \"\",\n                        \"contentLocation\": \"USA\",\n                        \"author\": {\n                            \"@type\": \"Organization\",\n                            \"name\": \"Critter Control\",\n                            \"url\": \"http:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/\"\n                        }\n                    }\n                    <\/script>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1736440788134\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How can I tell if I have raccoons on my property?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Signs of raccoons include loud noises in the attic or walls, overturned trash cans, scattered debris, claw marks, raccoon droppings, or noticeable damage to roofing, siding, or vents.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1736440807271\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Are raccoons dangerous to humans or pets?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, raccoons can be dangerous as they may carry diseases like rabies, leptospirosis, or raccoon roundworm.
