Raccoons, while adorable, can become significant nuisances when they invade residential spaces like attics and basements to seek warmth during cold winters. These animals can cause extensive property damage, from tearing insulation to chewing on wires, and they may also spread contagious infections.

Why You Need Raccoon Control in Toronto
Raccoons, while seemingly harmless and even cute, pose significant risks when they invade your property. These creatures are not only a nuisance but can also be dangerous and destructive. Here’s why you need professional raccoon control in Toronto:
Health Risks and Disease Transmission
Raccoons are carriers of various diseases and infections that can pose serious health risks to humans. Prompt removal is essential to protect your family from potential harm.
Aggressive Behavior
When irritated or threatened, raccoons can become aggressive and may attack humans. Ensuring their safe and humane removal minimizes the risk of such encounters.
Property Damage
Raccoons are notorious for causing extensive property damage. They are adept at finding their way into attics and other warm, cozy spaces where they give birth and raise their young. This behaviour can lead to:
- Structural Damage: Raccoons can tear insulation, chew wires, and damage roofing materials while trying to enter your home.
- Noise Disturbances: Once inside, they create a lot of noise due to their movements and vocalizations, which can be disruptive, especially at night.
- Hygiene Issues: They leave behind droppings and urine, which can contaminate your home and pose health hazards to your family.
Our Humane Raccoon Control Process
At Maple Pest Control, we prioritize humane and eco-friendly raccoon control in the GTA. Our process ensures that raccoons are safely removed and relocated without harming their health or the environment. Here’s how we do it:
Once you contact us, our team promptly arrives in a fully equipped animal control van, ready to handle the situation efficiently. We start with a thorough inspection to locate the raccoons’ habitat. We then seal all potential entry points to prevent escape and future access. After this, we safely trap and relocate the raccoons to a distant area, ensuring they won’t return.
Our comprehensive approach includes:
Inspection
Our team begins by conducting a detailed assessment of your property to identify the raccoons’ habitat and all potential entry points. This step is crucial for understanding the extent of the infestation and planning effective removal. We use advanced detection tools to ensure no hiding spot is missed.
Sealing
After locating the entry points, we proceed to block them effectively to prevent raccoons from escaping and re-entering your property. This step helps to contain the animals and avoid further property damage. We use durable materials to ensure the seals are secure and long-lasting.
Trapping
We use humane traps designed to capture raccoons safely and without causing harm. Our team is skilled in setting these traps in strategic locations based on our inspection findings. Once captured, we handle the raccoons with care to minimize stress and ensure their safety.
Prevention
To deter raccoons from returning, we implement a range of preventive measures tailored to your property. This might include removing food sources, securing trash bins, and installing deterrents. These steps are designed to make your property less attractive to raccoons and other wildlife.
Control
We manage the entire situation effectively, ensuring that the raccoons are handled humanely and your property is protected. Our control methods are thorough and adhere to all legal and ethical standards. We aim to create a raccoon-free environment for your peace of mind.
Removal
The captured raccoons are then safely removed from your property, ensuring no harm during the process. Our team is trained in handling wildlife with care, following all relevant guidelines and regulations. This ensures a humane approach to pest control.
Relocation
We transport the raccoons to a far-off area where they can thrive without causing issues to human habitats. This relocation is done in compliance with local wildlife laws to ensure the animals are released into a suitable and safe environment. Our goal is to provide a second chance for these raccoons in a new, appropriate habitat.
Proofing
Finally, we install barriers and take preventive actions to ensure raccoons do not return to your property. This includes securing potential entry points and advising on best practices to keep your property raccoon-free. Our proofing techniques are designed to provide long-term protection and peace of mind.
