A homeowner near Kennedy Road and Sandalwood Parkway in Brampton, Ontario, recently contacted us for raccoon removal after experiencing loud thumping and scratching sounds coming from their attic. These types of noises—especially during the night—are a common sign that a raccoon has made its way inside and may be nesting.
Our technician arrived promptly and conducted a full exterior inspection of the property. During the inspection, he discovered a visible entry point above the soffit, where the raccoon had created a hole large enough to access the attic space. This type of damage is typical of raccoons, who often target weak points in rooflines, soffits, and fascia to gain entry.
To humanely and effectively remove the raccoon, we installed a one-way exclusion door over the entry hole. This specialized door allows the raccoon to exit the attic but prevents it from getting back inside. This is one of the most humane and stress-free methods for wildlife removal, allowing the animal to leave on its own without direct confrontation.
Once the door was in place, our technician reinforced the surrounding area using heavy-duty galvanized wire mesh, which helps prevent future break-ins by raccoons or other wildlife. This mesh is a long-lasting solution that blends durability with discretion, ensuring both protection and a clean appearance.
After a few days, the raccoon exited the attic and was unable to return. We then returned to remove the one-way door and fully secure the area, giving the homeowner peace of mind that their attic was protected from further intrusion.
