Raccoon Control in Cedar Park

The Dangers and Damage Caused by Raccoons

While they may look clever, raccoons are one of the most destructive nuisance animals that can invade your property. Their strength and dexterity allow them to cause significant damage, and they pose serious health risks that every homeowner in Cedar Park should be aware of.

A raccoon infestation can lead to numerous problems:

• Major Structural Damage: Raccoons will rip open shingles, tear off soffit panels, and destroy vents to gain access to attics and crawl spaces.
• Attic Destruction: Once inside, they shred ductwork, tear up insulation for nesting, and chew on electrical wires, creating potential fire hazards.
• Serious Health Risks: Raccoons are primary carriers of rabies and canine distemper. Their feces can also contain roundworm eggs, which are dangerous to humans and pets if accidentally ingested.
• Outdoor Nuisance: They are notorious for raiding trash cans, destroying gardens, and digging up lawns in their search for food, creating a nightly mess.

Prompt removal is crucial to mitigate these risks and protect your investment in your home.

Our Humane Raccoon Control & Exclusion Process

At A-Tex Pest Management, we understand that you want the raccoon problem solved for good. Our proven process focuses on humane removal of the current animals and professional exclusion to prevent any from returning. We offer a complete, long-term solution for your Cedar Park home.

Here is our guaranteed three-step approach:

• Step 1: Humane Trapping and Removal: Our certified technician will strategically place traps to safely and humanely capture the raccoon(s). We follow all local and state guidelines for animal handling.
• Step 2: Damage Inspection: After removal, we conduct a thorough inspection of the damage. We can identify compromised areas and recommend any necessary repairs for insulation, wiring, or ductwork.
• Step 3: Professional Exclusion Work: This is the most critical step. We use high-quality, durable materials to professionally seal all entry points the raccoons used, ensuring your home is secure from future wildlife intrusions.

Our goal is to give you a permanent solution, not just a temporary fix.

Why You Need a Professional for Raccoon Removal

Facing a raccoon in your attic or on your property can be intimidating, and attempting a DIY removal is a significant risk. Without the proper training and equipment, you could endanger yourself, your family, and even fail to solve the core problem, allowing the raccoon to return.

The primary concern is safety. A cornered raccoon can be extremely aggressive and may bite or scratch in self-defense, creating a risk of rabies exposure. Professionals are trained in animal behavior and use specific techniques and protective gear to ensure a safe capture for everyone involved.

Furthermore, simply trapping a raccoon does not solve the problem. If the entry points are not found and professionally sealed, a new raccoon will almost certainly move in to claim the territory. A professional service provides the crucial exclusion work needed for a lasting solution.
