How Do Raccoons Get Into Houses?

Raccoons are frustrating little buggers. They will go through your trash a make a terrible mess, eat your leftovers outside and even eat your pet food. They especially love coy ponds for drinking and eating coy. Now if a raccoon is frequently on your property and worse, on your roof, then you may already have a raccoon in your home. Raccoons get into your home through all kinds of ways. They may rip at shingles and chew through the wood or get in through a hole in the drip edge. They may squeeze under your badly installed garage door or break in through a vent or through the siding. They can get in basically anywhere there is a way for them to get in. If you want to get rid of the raccoons in your home, contact Raccoon Removal Toronto to solve your raccoon problem!

If you want to do some work on your property you can do a lot on your own. Get all food off your property and store it in the house, never feed pets outside because they drop food everywhere all the time. You will also want to cover gardens and coy ponds with steel mesh and store your garbage in a sealed locked container in a garage with a door that meets the ground tightly. 

If you already have raccoons in your home then preventative measures are still useful but you will also want to call in a professional like the ones from Raccoon Control.
