Raccoon Exclusion in Sugar Pine area
23 October 2019. One or more raccoons were gaining entry into a subfloor through a hole cut by a cleaning company to drain moisture from a subfloor. They did not bother to cover the hole or to screen it off. Raccoons appear to have discovered the convenient new living space. They were particularly noisy just before dawn, disturbing the occupants.
We sealed off potential entry areas, and placed a one-way door to let the animals out, and to block their re-entry. We used bird spikes as an additional means to stop them from tearing the one-way door from the entry point. It appears to be working.
Work in progress…
