  1. What You Should Do When Raccoons Have Found Their Way To Your Chimney https://swatwildlife.com/

  2. Raccoons often find their way into chimneys. If raccoons have found their way into your chimney then the best way for raccoon removal is to get a professional’s help. Animal control companies have experience and the tools to deal with such a situation in the best possible way. If raccoons have entered the chimney then it is easy for you to detect it as you will start hearing noises from your fireplace. If these animals have been there for a while then you might have seen them climbing up to your roof.

  3. Why do Raccoons love the chimney?

  4. Raccoons consider hollow spaces as an ideal space to stay. Even in the forest, hollowed trees are their first priority. And the chimneys also provide them with a required homelike comfort. The main purpose for raccoons to climb up the roof and enter the chimney is to give birth. The dry, secure, and warm condition of the chimney is the perfect place for them to raise their young. The structure of the chimney cannot bother these excellent climbers, they can easily go up and down the chimney without any difficulty. Normally, they choose trees with low hanging branches around your house to get up the roof, but even in the absence of such access point, they can easily climb up the roof and find their way into your chimney.

  5. What you should not do while removing raccoons?

  6. If you are living in Toronto, then you should rely on a reputed company that provides the best animal control in Toronto as removing raccoons is not an easy task. It is important to note that the raccoons that have made a home in your chimney are usually mother raccoons nursing her young ones and so they should be humanely removed.

  7. Do not use your fireplace:

  8. You must not start a fire under any circumstances if you find the raccoons' presence in your chimney. Young raccoons cannot move around at least for six weeks. Baby raccoons are completely dependent on their mother for moving and if you start the fire they might get in your home in an aggressive and agitated state.

  9. Trapping them is also not an option:

  10. Trapping raccoons to remove them from your chimney is not the best option. As we have discussed that young raccoons are totally depended on their mother, trapping will mostly help you to catch the mother and the young ones won’t be able to survive without her. Experts don’t recommend trapping raccoons if they are in your chimney.

  11. Keep the entry point open:

  12. Sealing off the entry point is a complete no. Homeowners often make the mistake of sealing the entry point once they know that the adult raccoon has left. The baby raccoon will die of starvation if the mother is not able to reach them. The best way to get raccoons out of your chimney is by safety pulling out both babies and mother together at once. It is important to ensure that there is no baby left behind during this task. It is best to get raccoons out of your chimney alive. Getting rid of dead raccoons is expensive, unsanitary, and also risky for the health of your family members.

  13. What you should do to remove raccoons from your chimney:

  14. It is best to rely on professionals for wildlife removal, especially when it comes to removing raccoons from the chimney. Removing racoons is not an easy task as it requires special equipment, skill, experience, and right techniques. When you hire professionals, they not only make your property raccoon free, but they ensure that the animals do not come back.

  15. Raccoons cannot damage your chimney as it is made of bricks and pipe, but you need to find a solution before they find their way into the attic. You should find a Toronto animal control company that provides an effective solution for the problem.

  16. Summary:

  17. Taking a professional's help is the best way to remove raccoons from your chimney. There are few methods like plying loud radio and using the scent of the male racoon to find a solution, but in no circumstances, you should start a fire in the chimney and close the entry point as it will kill the baby raccoons.
