Raccoon Removal in Lexington & Berea, KY

Heavy footsteps, thumping, scratching, or movement in the attic at night can be signs of raccoon activity.

Raccoons are strong animals and can take advantage of vulnerable areas around roofs, soffits, vents, chimneys, and other parts of a structure.

Trapperz provides raccoon removal inspections throughout Lexington, Berea, and surrounding Central Kentucky areas.

How do raccoons get into attics?

Raccoons may enter through existing openings or exploit weak areas of a structure.

Common locations can include:

  • Soffits

  • Roof returns

  • Roofline openings

  • Chimneys

  • Vents

  • Damaged exterior materials

During an inspection, we look for signs of active raccoon use and the areas that may be allowing access.

What are signs of a raccoon in the attic?

Homeowners commonly report:

  • Heavy walking or thumping at night

  • Scratching above ceilings

  • Movement near the roof

  • Damaged soffits or vents

  • Droppings

  • Nesting material

  • Strong odors

  • Visible raccoon activity around the home

Noise alone cannot always confirm the species, which is why inspection matters.

Do you just trap raccoons?

We inspect the entire situation rather than assuming trapping alone will resolve it.

Addressing the active raccoon is one part of the job.

If there is an opening allowing wildlife into the structure, that opening also needs to be considered.

When repair or exclusion is appropriate, we explain the recommended scope after inspecting the property.

What if another company already removed a raccoon?

The property may still have an entry-point problem.

If the opening remains accessible, another raccoon or a completely different species may be able to use it.

We can inspect the structure even if wildlife has already been trapped or removed.
