Raccoon made an opening through a vent in Mississauga, ON

We received a call from a homeowner in Mississauga, near Hurontario Street and Matheson Boulevard, after they discovered a raccoon had entered their attic through a damaged roof vent. The raccoon had not only created an opening but also built a nest inside the attic space.

Our experienced technician arrived and confirmed the raccoon was still inside. To safely and humanely remove it, he installed a one-way door over the damaged vent. This device allows the raccoon to exit but prevents it from getting back in.

After confirming the raccoon had left, the technician sealed the entry point and reinforced the area with galvanized steel mesh, a durable material that helps prevent future wildlife intrusions.

This is the standard method our technicians use for raccoon removal when the animal is already inside the attic. It’s highly effective and avoids trapping or stressing the raccoon.

This type of issue is especially common in Mississauga neighborhoods like Fairview, Applewood, and Erin Mills, where raccoons often find easy access to warm, secluded areas in rooftops and vents.
