Raccoon Removal Montreal: Humane and Safe Intervention

Raccoon Removal Montreal

Raccoons are intelligent, adaptable animals that have thrived in Montreal's urban environment. While fascinating to observe from a distance, raccoons become a serious problem when they move into your attic, chimney, or garage. ExtermExpress provides professional, humane raccoon removal in Montreal, protecting both your property and the animals.

Why Raccoons Are a Problem

  • Property damage: They tear open roofing, soffits, and vents to access attics
  • Health risks: Raccoon feces can contain roundworm eggs dangerous to humans
  • Noise: Nocturnal activity in attics disrupts sleep
  • Electrical hazards: They chew on wires, creating fire risks
  • Insulation damage: They destroy attic insulation with nesting and waste

Our Humane Removal Process

1. Inspection

We thoroughly inspect your property to locate all raccoon entry points, den sites, and assess for babies (critical during spring birthing season).

2. Humane Exclusion

We install one-way exclusion devices that allow raccoons to leave naturally but prevent re-entry. During baby season (April-June), we ensure mothers and babies are not separated.

3. Entry Point Repair

Once raccoons have vacated, we permanently seal all entry points with heavy-gauge materials that resist future break-ins.

4. Cleanup and Sanitization

We remove contaminated insulation, sanitize affected areas, and deodorize to eliminate raccoon scent markers that attract other raccoons.

When to Call for Raccoon Removal

  • Scratching or thumping sounds in your attic, especially at night
