A Richmond Hill homeowner on Dewbourne Avenue, located near the busy Leslie Street and 16th Avenue intersection, contacted us after discovering a raccoon had chewed through their soffit to access the attic. Our wildlife specialists responded immediately and implemented our proven removal system: installing a heavy-duty one-way exclusion device over the damaged soffit that allowed the raccoon to exit but prevented re-entry. After carefully monitoring the situation for three days to confirm the raccoon’s departure, we returned to permanently repair the soffit with durable, wildlife-proof materials and install galvanized steel mesh reinforcement – providing complete protection against future intrusions.
This Richmond Hill neighborhood surrounding the Leslie and 16th corridors, including nearby streets like Shirley Drive, High Tech Road, Newkirk Road, Redstone Road, and Observatory Lane, frequently experiences soffit damage due to its combination of mature trees and proximity to the Oak Ridges Moraine. Our team specializes in serving this entire area from Major Mackenzie Drive to Bloomington Road, including the Observatory and Redstone communities. The Dewbourne Avenue homeowner was relieved with our efficient two-visit process that humanely resolved their attic intrusion while permanently securing their home. For residents throughout these Richmond Hill neighborhoods, we offer raccoon removal, comprehensive soffit protection services and pre-winter wildlife audits to identify vulnerabilities before animals can cause damage.
