Raccoon

The masked bandits, otherwise known as raccoons, are a very common nuisance in our great state of Georgia. Raccoons are extremely neat animals who are fun to watch going about their daily activities. Unlike most other animals in the south, raccoons have hands and use them in a similar fashion to us humans. These hands make raccoon tracks very easy to identify on the ground. Their hands also give them an edge when it comes to hunting and gathering food, as well as making them excellent climbers.   

Raccoons are, unfortunately, much more disease prone than many animals in Georgia.  Most notably, they are one of the main vector carriers of rabies. Extreme care must be taken when interacting with raccoons. If any human contact with a raccoon occurs, one should follow post-rabies exposure protocol and seek medical help as needed. More information about rabies can be found through the Georgia Department of Public Health and the Georgia Poison Control Center, which is available 24/7 at 800-282-5846.    

Along with many other diseases, raccoons are also known to carry raccoon roundworm, a very resilient parasite that can infect and harm humans. Some studies have shown that around 70% of adult raccoons have raccoon roundworm. The parasite eggs are primarily found in raccoon feces. That said, always wash your hands thoroughly if you touch anything a raccoon may have contaminated. 

As long as raccoons stay out in the woods, they cause very little problems. However, raccoons are extremely opportunistic animals and tend to adapt to human presence rapidly. They take full advantage of their circumstances, often living off our trash or trying to share our dwellings with us. This is where the raccoon becomes a nuisance, and raccoon removal becomes a necessity. Don’t worry; the experts at Jason’s Wildlife Removal are raccoon removal pros and can quickly eliminate any issues these bandits are causing.

Common issues with raccoons are crop destruction, eating cat food from your porch, killing poultry, fighting with pets, etc. However, the issue that calls for immediate raccoon removal presents when a raccoon gets into your home! Because raccoons are such great climbers, they will often get onto your roof and find their way into an attic. Most people who call us about raccoons report sounds of something “big” in their attic. Raccoons typically make these noises during the night because they are nocturnal animals. 

Once we determine that raccoons are indeed the target, we go to work setting up traps to effectively catch and remove the raccoon from your property. Once all animals are removed, and your home is deemed raccoon free, we then move to the seal-up phase, where we carefully “raccoon-proof” your home from any future bandits who may be making their way through the neighborhood. At this point, you are raccoon free and protected from all future incidents.  

If you are struggling with problem raccoons or are hearing some big nighttime sounds in your attic, call us today. We would love to help you solve your raccoon problem! The experts with Jason’s Wildlife Removal are individually licensed through the Georgia Department of Natural Resources as Nuisance Wildlife Control Operators. Professionals like us are trained to safely and humanely remove the wildlife and leave your home better than ever. Every job is different, so call us today, and we can come up with a plan for you!

If you’re looking for a friendly group of guys to get rid of pest wildlife, then look no further than Jason’s Wildlife Removal! They are super versed in all things nuisance wildlife, and can help with any of your critter needs. They managed to help our family say goodbye to the squirrels in our soffits, and gave lots of advice on how to keep them gone for good.

Jason and Toby came out to set a trap for an armadillo that was causing havoc in our yard. They came out, and not only did they take their time to teach me about what they were doing and why, but they also took the time to teach my eight-year-old daughter. My family and I will definitely use them again. Highly recommend!

Recently discovered a hornets nest in my camellia bushes and contacted Jason’s Wildlife Removal for help. They removed the whole nest without disturbing the hornets. Very professional and a great bunch of guys to do business with. Would recommend this business to anyone with wildlife problems.

Jason and his team of experts came to my parent’s house immediately when we found a hornets nest close to the house and workshop. The entire team was extremely knowledgeable and put our safety first. I would recommend them to anyone!

We had a massive infestation of armadillos tearing up our yard. They set traps initially with no results, so came back, moved them and trapped 11. They stayed with it until the job was done. They promptly removed each catch. Told us how to protect against further problems. Knowledgeable, friendly, responsive and tenacious. They don’t quit until the job is done! Highly recommend these guys.

We had a problem with beavers building dams, flooding our property and damaging our driveway. Jason and Toby came out and he the issue resolved in 2 days. They came back a week later to make sure the problem was 100% resolved. We haven’t had issues since. They were very professional and worked around our busy travel schedule. When they were done, they didn’t leave any messes. If we have a problem again, these guys will be my first call.

I could go on and on about my experience with Jason and his team! Their responsiveness was stellar, their communication above and beyond, services exceptional! I always knew what was happening and when. They took the time to explain the problem and the solution and why. They were timely and precise with their work and clean up. Weeks after, they checked in just to make sure things were still good. Wow, just wow! Their jobs cannot be easy but you’d never know. They’re a joy!

I called Jason’s Wildlife Removal some weeks back due to some nuisance armadillos in my yard. Dennis contacted me right away, explained the process, came right out, and set the traps up. He gave quick responses throughout the process and promptly came out when he needed to be on the property. Worked well as a team. Very knowledgeable about the animals (an expert, I would say), helpful, professional, polite and friendly at all times and went the extra mile. It makes all the difference in the world when you can work with someone that is understanding. Lord knows those armadillos worked my nerves. LOL. I would recommend Jason’s Wildlife Removal for any issues you may have with nuisance animals. Thanks Dennis. It was a pleasure working with you. I am glad that Jason’s Wildlife offers such a service. Thank you

I must say that this company is AMAZING !!! I work at the Promise place, we have been experiencing squirrel issues for a few days and couldn’t find anyone with availability to service our facility. I found Jason’s Wildlife Removal in a panic mode, overwhelmed because the squirrels bit through the walls and the wire. It was 10pm when I reached out to Todd, he was very informative, he explained to me that the squirrels were harmless and that he could come out first thing in the morning. He arrived at 8am sharp, he was very professional, he knew exactly what the issue was, he caught the squirrels and removed them. He patched the holes, took pictures and followed up afterwards. He gave suggestions and recommendations. Everyone in the home was very pleased with his services. I highly recommend Jason’s Wildlife as the #1 wildlife removal company. Thanks for doing what you do best.

I contacted Jason’s Wildlife Removal about a month to remove a chipmunk from my home, Dennis contacted me about a time to come. He arrived promptly, as a matter of fact he was early, he was able to remove the pest then proceeded to check the entire area of my home, the attic, and any place it could get back in. He then secured the area where it had originally gotten in. He was so kind and professional and I felt so much better once he completed the job. I recommend this company to anyone who may have any type of pest problems. Thank you Dennis so much.
