Emergency Wildlife Rescue: Don’t Let Trapped Animals Damage Your Home
If you’ve recently had exterior repairs—like new fascia, eaves, or soffits—and suddenly hear frantic scratching or scurrying in your attic, you might have a trapped animal.
It’s a common mistake: repair companies often seal up entry points without realizing a raccoon or squirrel is still tucked away inside.
When animals are trapped, they can become desperate, chewing through wires, wood, and drywall to find a way out. That’s exactly what happened at a recent job, and we stepped in to provide emergency same-day service.
Our Specialized Extraction Process
To fix the situation without tearing down the brand-new exterior work, we took a surgical approach:
1. Strategic Access: We carefully removed the aluminum soffit panels and made a precision access cut into the original wooden soffit.
2. Dual-Species Protection: Because it wasn't clear exactly what was tucked away, we installed both a raccoon one-way door and a squirrel one-way door.
3. The Result: This allowed the trapped wildlife to exit safely on their own terms while preventing them from getting back inside.
