A quaint Central Florida city, Auburndale presents personal and professional opportunities to new and lifelong residents. But as more and more homeowners and business owners move into the city, the wildlife of Auburndale has less natural room to roam, scavenge, and forage — especially larger animals like raccoons.
If you find raccoons making trouble around your yard, in your garage, or throughout your attic, call the team at Critter Control® of Polk County. Our trained, licensed animal technicians are experienced in raccoon removal and relocation, and we’ll work with you through every step of the wildlife control process.
Common Signs of an Auburndale Raccoon Infestation
Understanding raccoons is what helps our animal control crew at Critter Control® of Polk County get rid of raccoons. Because they are some of the larger pests to watch out for in Auburndale, raccoons don’t scurry like mice and rats — they thump around with noisy, heavy footing. Raccoons also tend to be very vocal animals, growling and crying to communicate with each other at night.
In addition, raccoons birth and raise their young in warm, enclosed spaces. So, any large nests inside your home or business are a strong sign that raccoons have made themselves comfortable. To get a better idea of whether a nest on your property belongs to raccoons, check to see if they are made with material like insulation, large sticks and twigs, and cardboard boxes.
When Raccoons Infest Your Auburndale Property
Raccoons might frequent your property for three reasons: It acts as a convenient location to live and feed, provides shelter for comfortably raising young, and offers access to food and water. Although they don’t mean any harm, raccoons can still cause trouble once they infest your building — transmitting diseases such as rabies or carrying infected fleas and ticks. Furthermore, raccoons can create serious damage that affects the very structure of your home or business. That’s why you should never try to tackle a raccoon situation without the help of Critter Control® of Polk County.
