A raccoon in a New London chimney and attic was removed humanely, the chimney capped, and the roofline sealed to prevent re-entry.
A New London homeowner heard heavy thumping in the chimney and attic at night — a raccoon had taken up residence. Raccoons tear into attics, rip shingles, and carry roundworm parasites, so removal needed to happen quickly and humanely.
We used a live trap and one-way exclusion to remove the raccoon humanely, following Wisconsin DNR regulations. We then capped the chimney, repaired the chewed soffit, and sealed the attic entry points so no raccoon — or squirrel — could get back in.
No more thumping. The capped chimney and repaired roofline mean this New London home is wildlife-proof. We removed the contaminated insulation and sanitized the attic to eliminate health risks.
