Can Raccoons Get Into Your Basement?
Raccoons are known for their mischievous and industrious natures. Their masks are no disguise when the masked bandit raids the rubbish bin. It is undeniably this creature’s most recognizable feature. Even when homeowners do not witness their thievery, they usually know what to blame. Raccoons are one of the only wild animals in these parts that can manage to unscrew, unclip or unlatch any containers we’ve casually thrown away.
Most homeowners are also well aware of the animal’s tendency to take advantage of our attics almost as often as our trash receptacles. They are good little climbers and excellent problem solvers. If they want in, they often find a way. What many people don’t realize is that their basement may be almost as appealing as the attic, especially if access is easy! A cornered raccoon is a dangerous raccoon, so if you discover one in your home, make sure you contact our humane raccoon removal Durham experts.
