Raccoon removal downers grove

It is that time of year where Raccoons proof to be a problem to homeowners in the Downers Grove area.

Raccoons are notorious in the local area. Since raccoons are omnivorous, they will eat anything that smells good to them, whether it is in your yard, like bird food or garden plants or goodies out of the trash can. Most raccoons in the Downers Grove area are born and raised in attics, so it is natural for them to return to continue to make these places home. They can also den in sheds, garages, garbage piles and tree cavities.
Raccoons will typically get into a home thru the roof, but can also come in at ground level. There are several common roof entry points, roof vents, and soffit vents are the most likely, but they will also just tear a hole in the roof if they can. In Downers Grove raccoons can live in the attic or crawl space year round. Therefore, if you hear a scratching or thumping sound at night in your home, have Animal Trackers Wildlife come in and investigate your home. Raccoons can be aggressive and attack when they feel like their nest is being threatened, especially during the baby season. Raccoons also are notorious carriers of various diseases, especially rabies and salmonella. If you are ever bitten or attacked by a raccoon in your yard or home, seek medical attention immediately!

Pigeons Be Gone!

Pigeons, cute while you are tossing breadcrumbs to them while sitting on a park bench, are not so cute when they are nesting and pooping on your balcony or patio. In fact they are gross and carry a wicked amount of diseases. In this video we show you how we can prevent that from happening without the use of chemicals, poisons, or sticky gels by using professional exclusion products designed to keep them off of or out of areas they should not have had access to in the first place. Tony and Brandon go sky high in a super scary 100 foot high lift to get the job done!
