Raccoon Removal and Exclusion Services in London
Our raccoon removal services use humane one-way doors that allow raccoons to exit the structure without allowing re-entry.

What sets us apart
Assessment
We begin by identifying raccoon entry points, nesting areas, and signs of activity around rooflines, attics, chimneys, and exterior openings. This allows us to determine how raccoons are accessing the structure and plan removal correctly.Approach
Our approach uses humane one-way doors that allow raccoons to exit the structure safely while preventing re-entry. Special care is taken during baby season to ensure dependent young are addressed appropriately.Removal
One-way doors are installed at identified entry points, allowing raccoons to leave on their own. Activity is monitored to confirm all animals have exited before the doors are removed.Follow-Up (If Required)
Once removal is complete, entry points are sealed and vulnerable areas reinforced to prevent re-entry. Follow-up or warranty options may be provided to ensure long-term results.
How We Treat Raccoon Removal Service Calls
You call
You speak with experienced staff who assess the situation, confirm signs of raccoon activity, and determine urgency based on where the animals are accessing the home. If appropriate, a raccoon removal service call is scheduled.
Inspection
Once on site, the technician inspects rooflines, attics, chimneys, soffits, and exterior structures to identify raccoon entry points, nesting areas, and movement pathways. This inspection determines how raccoons are accessing the structure and what removal method is required.
Humane Removal
Raccoon removal is performed using humane one-way doors installed at identified entry points. These doors allow raccoons to exit the structure safely while preventing re-entry. During baby season, additional steps are taken to ensure dependent young are handled appropriately before exclusion proceeds.
Recommendations
Based on the findings, the technician documents entry points and provides clear recommendations for exclusion and repairs to prevent re-entry. Follow-up visits or warranty-backed exclusion may be recommended depending on the structure and level of activity.

Raccoon Patterns We See In London Homes
Raccoon activity in London homes follows consistent patterns tied to shelter, access, and seasonal behaviour. Raccoons commonly access attics, chimneys, and rooflines while seeking safe nesting areas, particularly during colder months and breeding season.
During inspections, entry points are frequently found along roof edges, soffits, fascia gaps, roof vents, and chimney openings. In many cases, raccoons reuse the same access points year after year if they remain unsealed. Activity may appear sudden, but it often develops over time as raccoons become comfortable accessing the structure.
Homes near green space, mature trees, or ravines are more likely to experience raccoon pressure, as these areas provide natural travel routes and food sources. Without proper exclusion, raccoon activity often returns even after animals have been removed.
Why Raccoon Problems Keep Coming Back Without Exclusion
- Raccoons repeatedly use the same roofline, attic, and chimney entry points if they remain open
- Removing raccoons without sealing access points allows new animals to enter
- Raccoons are highly adaptable and quickly locate vulnerable areas on structures
- Seasonal breeding and shelter-seeking increase pressure on homes each year
- Homes near trees, green space, or food sources experience ongoing raccoon activity
- One-way doors remove raccoons safely, but exclusion is required to prevent re-entry
- Long-term results depend on sealing and reinforcing identified entry points
Because these issues follow predictable patterns, effective raccoon control in London starts with a proper inspection — not just treatment..
Every London House Is Different. Raccoon Patterns Repeat
Every home in London has different rooflines, materials, and structural details, but raccoon activity tends to follow repeatable access patterns. Raccoons look for elevated, protected entry points that lead to attics, chimneys, and enclosed roof spaces. Once a suitable access point is found, raccoons often return to the same location season after season if it remains open.
Homes with aging roof components, soffit gaps, or nearby trees are particularly vulnerable, as raccoons can climb and reach rooflines with ease. Even when raccoons are removed, activity often returns if entry points are not properly secured. Long-term raccoon control depends on identifying these access points and completing exclusion once animals have exited the structure.
