Raccoon Control in Murray
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 Murray, UT
Murray is a Salt Lake County city in the Jordan River valley, where the river corridor and Cottonwood Creek provide two converging raccoon travel routes through one of the Wasatch Front's most densely developed communities. The Jordan River corridor through Murray is among the most productive raccoon travel routes in Salt Lake County, connecting animals from Utah Lake north through the entire valley. Post-war construction from the 1940s through 1960s makes up a substantial portion of Murray's housing stock with original soffit and vent assemblies now well past their service life. We live-trap the family group, seal the structure with reinforced hardware cloth, and decontaminate soiled insulation in the attic cavity.
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.
Common questions
How do raccoons get into an attic?
They pull open soffits, fascia boards, or attic vents. A determined raccoon can defeat a hardware-cloth-screened vent in minutes if it has been weakened. Spring is the most common nesting season.
Are your methods humane?
Yes. We use live trapping or hand removal, and for mothers with kits we reunite the litter outside in a den box rather than separating them.
How much does raccoon removal cost?
We provide a free estimate. Pricing depends on entry-point complexity and whether attic remediation is required.
