Raccoons and Public health

Raccoons and Public health

Raccoons and public health are very important set of topics. Raccoons are an enormous threat to public health. They are a vector species for rabies which can be fatal in humans. They can give you raccoon roundworm which can be a horrifying illness that can lead to serious brain damage if not handled quickly enough. They are riddled with diseases, bacteria, viruses and parasites. They can give your pet ticks and fleas and their urine can give you giardia. The list continues. Dealing with raccoons, for this reason, is very dangerous. You should never attempt to get a raccoon out of your home or off your property on your own. The best way to prevent raccoons is with preventative measures like sealing your garbage in a metal-locked garbage container and storing it in your garage, assuming the door meets the ground.
