Raccoon Removal and Exclusion Services in Markham
Raccoon activity in Markham homes is commonly associated with attics, rooflines, and elevated access points where shelter is available. Effective resolution requires safely removing the animals while addressing the conditions that allow them to return.
Our raccoon removal services in Markham focus on humane eviction using methods that allow raccoons to exit the structure without harm. Once activity is resolved, raccoon exclusion services are used to secure affected areas and reduce the likelihood of repeat intrusion.
In many cases, raccoon problems persist when removal is completed without addressing roofline vulnerabilities or structural features that provide access. By combining removal with exclusion, raccoon activity can be managed more effectively and with fewer repeat incidents.

What sets us apart
Assessment
Raccoon activity is evaluated by reviewing where use is occurring along rooflines, attics, chimneys, and exterior structures. Signs of nesting and repeated access are assessed to understand how raccoons are utilizing the structure and to guide the appropriate removal method.Approach
Removal is carried out using humane techniques that allow raccoons to leave the structure safely on their own. Special care is taken during denning season to ensure dependent young are handled properly and in accordance with wildlife best practices.Removal
One-way exclusion devices are installed at active access locations to permit raccoons to exit while preventing re-entry. Activity is monitored to confirm all animals have vacated the structure before devices are removed or further work proceeds.Follow-Up (If Required)
After removal is confirmed, affected areas are secured and reinforced to reduce the likelihood of future access. Additional follow-up services or longer-term protection options may be recommended based on site conditions.
How We Treat Raccoon Removal Service Calls
You call
When you contact us, our staff gather details about the suspected raccoon activity and where it is occurring. Based on the information provided, urgency is assessed and a service visit is scheduled when appropriate.
Inspection
At the property, the technician examines rooflines, attics, chimneys, soffits, and exterior structures to confirm raccoon use. Nesting areas, travel routes, and patterns of activity are reviewed to determine the most appropriate removal approach.
Humane Removal
Raccoon removal is completed using humane one-way exclusion methods that allow the animals to leave the structure safely while preventing re-entry. During denning season, additional steps are taken to ensure dependent young are handled properly before exclusion is finalized.
Recommendations
Following removal, the technician documents findings and provides clear recommendations for exclusion and repair work to reduce the likelihood of future activity. Follow-up services or longer-term protection options may be suggested based on the structure and level of activity observed.

Raccoon Patterns We See In Markham Homes
Raccoon activity in Markham homes tends to follow consistent patterns shaped by roof design, access to elevated shelter, and nearby green space. While every property is different, the conditions that attract raccoons are often the same.
We commonly see raccoons accessing attics through rooflines, soffits, chimneys, and areas where exterior materials meet. Homes near ravines, parks, or mature tree cover are more likely to experience repeated activity, especially when rooflines provide easy access.
In many cases, raccoons return to the same structures year after year, particularly during denning season. Without securing vulnerable roof areas, activity often resumes even after animals are removed.
These patterns repeat across Markham homes, which is why effective raccoon control depends on understanding how roofline features and surrounding conditions support ongoing wildlife use.
Why Raccoon Problems Keep Coming Back Without Exclusion
- Raccoons return to familiar rooflines and attic spaces that remain accessible.
- Elevated entry areas such as soffits and chimneys continue to provide shelter.
- Removal alone does not change the conditions that attracted raccoons initially.
- Nearby green space and tree cover support repeated wildlife pressure.
- Denning behaviour leads raccoons to reuse the same structures year after year.
- Temporary gaps reopen or worsen without reinforcement.
- Without exclusion, new raccoons replace those that were removed.
Because these issues follow predictable patterns, effective raccoon control in Markham starts with a proper inspection.
Every Markham House Is Different. Raccoon Patterns Repeat
Homes across Markham vary in design, roof structure, and surrounding environment, all of which influence how raccoon activity develops. Factors such as roofline complexity, nearby trees, and access to green space create different conditions from one property to the next.
Despite these differences, raccoon behaviour follows consistent patterns. Raccoons seek elevated, sheltered spaces for denning, return to familiar structures when access remains available, and reuse the same roofline areas year after year. These patterns repeat across Markham homes regardless of property style.
Effective raccoon control depends on recognizing these repeating behaviours while addressing the specific roofline features and vulnerabilities of each home. Without this approach, raccoon activity is likely to persist or reoccur after animals are removed.
