Raccoons In Attic Health Risk

Raccoons In Attic Health Risk

Raccoons are a very frustrating and dangerous infestation. They can break into your home with relative ease, especially if it is old and damaged and can wreak havoc on the inside. One of the largest dangers of having a raccoon in your home is health risk. Raccoons are filled with viruses, bacteria and even parasites and they are the vector species for rabies in America which means many raccoons are carriers of the rabies virus. This can seriously endanger your family if a rabies-infected raccoon were to get into your attic before displaying symptoms and then develop them over its stay in your home. It would be capable of anything from coming out of the attic and into your home and attacking one of your children, or attacking you!

Raccoon feces are also dangerous and can cause illnesses like giardia and roundworm. Roundworm is a parasite most active when raccoon poop dries and can be caught through inhalations from airborne spores. They will infect your body with roundworms which can travel to the brain and cause serious brain damage. In a big enough raccoon infestation, you could be dealing with a family pooping and urinating on your roof and that material will leak through your walls and ceiling and infect your family and your pets with these horrible and dangerous illnesses.
