A concerned homeowner in Richmond Hill, near Yonge Street and Elgin Mills Road, contacted us after hearing persistent scratching and movement noises coming from inside one of their walls. Suspecting the presence of wildlife, they asked for our professional raccoon removal services.
Our team arrived at the property on Wright Street and conducted a thorough inspection. Using a thermal imaging (heat) camera, we were able to pinpoint the exact location of the activity behind the wall. The camera revealed a litter of raccoon babies that had been born inside the wall cavity—a common situation during raccoon birthing season in urban areas.
To access the babies without causing unnecessary damage, we carefully cut open the section of drywall where the heat signature was strongest. Once we located the babies, we gently removed them and placed them in a safe, insulated container just outside the home.
Following best practices in humane wildlife control, we left the babies outside near the entry point so that the mother raccoon could return and relocate them to a new den site. This method ensures the family is reunited while preventing further damage to the home.
This case demonstrates how we provide compassionate, professional, and effective raccoon removal services in Richmond Hill—always prioritizing both the safety of our clients and the well-being of the animals.
