Raccoon Removal & Attic Exclusion
Hearing heavy thumping in the attic at night? Raccoons can tear insulation, damage wood structures, and contaminate attic spaces. We remove raccoons, identify how they got in, and secure the entry points so it doesn’t happen again.
Professional Raccoon Removal That Prevents Repeat Entries
Raccoons are persistent and destructive once they gain access to attic spaces. Effective raccoon control is not just removal, it’s removal plus exclusion. If the entry point is left vulnerable, raccoons (or the next animal) will test the same weak area again.
TDHP Wildlife Control provides raccoon removal, raccoon in attic removal, and wildlife exclusion throughout Worcester and Middlesex County, Massachusetts. Our service is built to end the cycle: identify the access route, remove the animal, and secure the structure with professional repair and prevention.
Common Signs of Raccoons in the Attic
- Heavy walking, thumping, or dragging sounds (often at night)
- Strong odor coming from ceilings or attic spaces
- Torn soffits, damaged roof edges, or displaced vents
- Insulation pulled apart or matted into nesting areas
- Debris, staining, or contamination near entry points
Spring warning: Attics are common den sites for kits. Early action reduces damage and keeps your home from becoming a nursery.
Why You Shouldn’t Wait
Raccoon damage spreads fast. The longer they have access, the more insulation and structural damage you can expect.
- Insulation damage and higher heating/cooling costs
- Widened entry points from repeated attempts to return
- Contamination from droppings and urine
- Ongoing noise and odor issues

Raccoon Removal FAQ
How do raccoons get into attics?
Most commonly through roof edges, soffits, vents, gables, or weakened areas caused by weather or previous animal activity.
Will raccoons come back after removal?
They can if the entry point isn’t secured. Exclusion and repairs are what prevent re-entry.
What should I do if I hear heavy noise at night?
Avoid entering the attic. Document where the noise is coming from and schedule a professional inspection to confirm activity and access points.
