Baby Raccoons - Many consider raccoons to be cute and cuddly. This is a dangerous assumption. Raccoons are the primary vector species for rabies in the southeast. (Rabies is most often transmitted by contact with the saliva on an infected animal.) Even when another animal is infected, the disease itself is often of the raccoon strain. Raccoons also carry parasites that impact humans or domestic animals including raccoon roundworm and fleas. This is why raccoon control and raccoon removal is so important.
 Raccoons have litters that range in size from three to eight young. Female raccoons in urban areas will often have their young (called kits) in attics. Females have a strong maternal instinct anyway, but they can become quite vicious when protecting their young in and around human dwellings. Though some small bachelor groups have been observed, raccoons are not pack animals. Most groups of raccoons seen together are a mother and her young. Male raccoons tend to stay near females during breeding season but move off on their own long before the young arrive.
Two popular myths are that raccoons always wash their food and that raccoons lack salivary glands. Raccoons will often wet their food and this helps with tactile sensation more than to clean their food. Raccoons do in fact have salivary glands. Remember that to transmit rabies their saliva has to come in contact with a bite or other break in the skin.
So, if you suspect raccoons in the attic; hear noises in the attic at night, or have raccoons raiding your trash cans you should certainly call the raccoon control professionals at Trutech. We can diagnose your raccoon removal problem, trap the offending individuals, and provide the necessary repairs to cover holes and construction gaps that may be allowing.
