Raccoon Control Holladay, UT

Raccoon Control in Holladay

Raccoons climb roofs and pull open soffits, ridge caps, and attic vents to nest. Once inside, they tear insulation, contaminate it with droppings and urine, and chew on wiring. Female raccoons in spring will defend a litter aggressively, so professional removal is the only safe option. We trap or hand-remove the raccoons, clean and decontaminate the attic, and rebuild any damaged soffit, fascia, or vent screens. Repairs are sealed with materials raccoons cannot pull open.

Raccoon Issues in Holladay, UT

Holladay is a Salt Lake County community between Cottonwood Heights and Murray, where several small drainages feeding into the Jordan River create raccoon travel corridors through one of the Wasatch Front's most established and wooded residential areas. The large-lot character of Holladay with mature walnut, oak, and fruit trees provides both food and direct roof access throughout the year. Many of Holladay's homes date to the 1950s and 1960s and have never had original vent and soffit assemblies inspected for gaps. Spring nesting activity in this tree-dense neighborhood begins as early as late February. We apply vent caps and seal fascia separations, then decontaminate soiled insulation after confirming removal.

What is included

• Trap or hand removal. Live trapping is our first option. For mothers with kits we hand-remove the litter and reunite them outside in a den box.
• Soffit and attic repair. Raccoons most often pull open soffits, fascia, or attic vents. We rebuild and seal these with raccoon-rated materials.
• Attic decontamination. Droppings, urine, and damaged insulation are removed. The space is sanitized with HEPA equipment and full PPE.
• Rabies-aware. Raccoons can carry rabies and roundworm. Our technicians follow strict PPE and disposal protocols. Never approach a raccoon yourself.
