Raccoon Control in Wendover
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 Wendover, UT
Wendover is a Tooele County community on the Utah-Nevada border in the Bonneville Salt Flats, one of the most arid and isolated environments in Utah. Raccoons here are associated almost entirely with the casino and hotel complex that provides water, food waste, and structural denning opportunities in a landscape that would otherwise offer minimal habitat. The limited water sources near the townsite concentrate raccoon activity around a small number of structures. Denning animals target the backs of commercial buildings and older hotel wing attics where vent covers have not been maintained. We live-trap and remove, then sanitize the attic cavity and install heavy gauge mesh, addressing the water and food access points that make the site attractive.
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 offer a phone consultation. Pricing depends on entry-point complexity and whether attic remediation is required.
