New Mexico's arid environment means raccoons often seek water sources and shelter in structures during hot summers and cooler winters. They are known to inhabit attics and crawl spaces in the varied housing stock, from adobe-style homes to modern constructions. The state's regulations regarding wildlife control are focused on humane treatment and preventing the spread of disease, requiring licensed professionals for removal services.
Listen for noises such as scratching, thumping, or rustling within walls or attics, especially during the night. Look for droppings, damaged insulation, or signs of chewing on electrical wires or wooden structures.
Our process starts with a comprehensive inspection to locate the raccoons and their entry points. We then employ humane exclusion methods to safely remove the animals. The final step involves securing all entry points to prevent future access.
Raccoons are active year-round in New Mexico, but they may be more noticeable during spring when they have young, or in fall as they forage for food before winter.
The complexity of the raccoon infestation, the number and size of entry points, and the accessibility of the affected areas will affect the overall cost. We offer a free phone quote after an initial assessment.
