This poor fellow that was living in a customer's eaves put his head through a knot hole and got stuck! Brad cut him free, saving his life. (left) The little one in the center photo crawled out of a vent on one of our jobs. (middle) and 8 Raccoons (and 1 opossum), All in a days work :) (right)
I'm trying to hide from you!
A pair of uninvited guests removed from a customer's home (left), a raccoon that was living under a deck (middle), and two raccoons that traveled the same path so frequently that they wore a trail in the yard (right)
A raccoon living in a chimney that we then captured and removed (left), a very bad "lawn job" from a destructive raccoon (middle), and a raccoon Brad removed from a window well (as seen through a window with a screen) (right)
This was an exciting job! As Brad is setting up his ladder to climb the roof, I (Katy) spot a young raccoon on the roof outside of a trap. "There's one that's not in a trap, hurry!" I call to Brad, "Oh! Hurry! He's getting back in the house!" I call out to him as he makes his way on to the roof and after the raccoon...
The little raccoon makes his best attempt to get back into their stolen home, but Brad is quicker and makes it over just in time to grab it right before it disappears inside...
As Brad is lifting the raccoon he just caught I spot yet another young raccoon on the loose between the two traps to the left of Brad's boots. I call out to him again, "There's another one!! On the left! between the traps!"
Before I can even snap another photo Brad has the second raccoon in his grip and with two struggling raccoons in his hand on a steep rooftop he grabs a trap to put them in...
He mananges to get them into the trap and then has the entire family of 4 together in one trip, pheww.
Brad grabs all four raccoons and his extra trap and makes his way off the rooftop, job well done! :)
A family has trouble brewing in their kitchen! A raccoon has torn its way into their house and has had its babies in the soffit. Brad has to remove portions of the drywall to gain access to where the family of raccoons are located, which he does with expert precision, and set traps within the walls. Here he is removing one of the raccoons out of the soffit. The halo of light above Brad's head is because he's an angel here on earth helping people ;) he he.
Out comes the raccoon, carefully!
Brad pulls the raccoon out of the soffit and takes a look at it, then shows our youngest inside the soffit where it was living.
Brad places wire over the open soffit so no other raccoons could possibly get in the house until the trapping is complete and permanent repairs can be made.(left) Outside, Mother raccoon waits and Brad takes baby out to put it with its mom. (middle and right)
As we pull up to yet another job, the raccoon babies Brad has been trapping are wandering around outside the traps! Brad sccops in to capture them by hand and the chase in on! Fast as lightening he grabs one that ran under a bush.
Brad grabs the little raccoon while trying to avoid raccoon potty, puts it in the trap, then looks at his hand, eww, it got him. Yuck. But this is what comes with the job.
Brad looks under another bush for the others that are nearby while the first one waits in his cage.

up close and personal with some baby raccoons Brad trapped that were living in a homeowner's attic (this group of photos courtesy of Amy Luetgert)


Brad removes the raccoon mother from the roof where she was entering the homeowner's attic
Katy collects a family of baby raccoons that came out from under a shed after their mother was trapped
a baby raccoon hides its eyes after I pick it up, and our cat and our son both get a peek at an orphaned litter of baby raccoons

The Infamous Eight - Brad removing raccoons from a Kindercare dumpster...it's not always this dirty of work! Well, then again, maybe it is, lol.

sleeping on piles of diapers! Obviously, raccoons can't read....

All in a day's work! Brad to the Rescue! :)
Here are the photos from a job in which Brad was called to for a raccoon, having gained access to and living in the attic, decided to get into the walls of the customer's home to have her babies. In photos 1 and 2 (left and middle) the mother raccoon attempts to hide from Brad. In photo 3 (right) a little raccoon face peeks out after Brad locates and opens the wall where the babies were located.
Brad removed all the babies, reunited them with mother and all was well. Well, except that the customer's wall and attic needed repair and cleanout, but after that all was indeed well.
A raccoon under a customer's bed that gained access to the house through the chimney! Not what you want under your bed! :)
See the fuzzy tail sticking out? This guy thinks he's hiding! If I can't see you, you can't see me? Not this time! :)
First photo looks a little funny but Brad has "lassoed" the raccoon and he is trying to pull himself back into the hole in the house, photo 2 (middle) he is trying to get away from Brad's grip, and photo 3 (right) he's safe in the trap..."Hey! If you let me outta here I can change my ways I promise." LOL
A raccoon Brad trapped that completely tore open an attic fan to gain access to the attic that he took over. I think he looks a little scared to have been caught red-handed!
The disaster in the photos below is the result of raccoons taking over the place! This was a commercial property (a former home turned office building) where raccoons had got into the attic. This is what happened when the tenants moved out and the place was left vacant for awhile, unintentionally leaving it to the raccoons. It doesn't take long for raccoons to COMPLETELY DESTROY a property. In most situations people hear the noise the raccoons are making in the attic and call us for help before the raccoons can cause damage to this extent, but in this particular case, as is possible with any vacant property, the raccoons seized the opportunity.
In photos 1 and 2 you can see a piece of the ceiling that fell in after becoming heavy with raccoon feces and urine (and black mold!) and also allowing the raccoons access to the rest of the house. Photo 3 (on left) shows more ceiling damage where it was caving in from raccoon waste and mold. Duct work was also ripped open, and the rest of the ceiling was discolored (ruined and needed to be replaced! Not to mention the entire attic!). You could only imagine the smell that accompanied it!
more ceiling falling in and the mess on the floor beneath it.
After another filming with the Billy the Exterminator Show, cameraman Ali offers mother raccoon and babies a drink
The entire crew was very kind to the animals. Mom and babies are now well hydrated :)
Thanks for the drink!
This guy took up residence under a customer's deck and reeked (lol) havoc with the homeowner's dogs and the smell coming from under the deck...
Some of the Cute and Furry but Not So Innocent Troublemakers we've taken out of people's houses...


Here's a mama with babies.

Brad all the way under a porch to retrieve a raccoon and a view of the raccoon under the porch that he was after

Photos of Major Raccoon Lawn Damage

More Lawn Damage from Raccoons

Brad on the site of a Serious Raccoon Lawn Job!! You can see the culprit in the trap to his left in the middle and right side photos.

More Raccoon damage to a lawn and Brad setting traps for Raccoons that tore up a yard
At the scene of one of the filmings with Billy the Exterminator in which the raccoon mothers and babies are about to get a new home, Sound Tech Jared stops to take a photo shoot with his niece's Flat Stanley project for school. ;)
At the same time, Brad reunites the other baby raccoons with their mother who is waiting to receive them
Brad has to move quickly to avoid being bitten by protective mother raccoon. Picture on right, Brad talks to the crew members while holding one of the babies
Brad finishes putting the babies with mother raccoon, and then cameraman Dana gets a close-up shot while curious mother raccoon reaches out to grab his camera :)
Mother raccoon hangs onto her baby :) and then tries to grab for the camera again
I don't know if she appreciates being a star or not but she seems to be as curious about us as we are about her. Cameraman Donovan gets his close-ups with the Raccoon Mother
Mother raccoon again reaches out for the camera, leaving cameraman Donovan smiling
This was a fierce mother raccoon captured on a job filmed with the Billy the Exterminator Show that has not aired yet, but hopefully will soon, it was intense! These are her babies, reunited with her later.
bits of white insulation still cling to the trap after being removed from the attic they were living in (true it was cozy!)
Two cute babies and one reaching to get out, and one more pic of mom raccoon
Raccoons (and a opossum!) that were living under this gazebo, making a huge stink! Who wants to sit in that? Luckily Brad was called in to take care of it! (left) Brad walks off with two raccoons he's trapped that are no longer going to be tearing apart and desroying this family's home. :) (right)

Damage to a roof from a raccoon (left) Yes! He tore all of those shingles up!! and a photo we caught of a raccoon upside down on a tree...shows how agile they are!! (right)

Damage (to say the least!) to two different attics from raccoons (YUCK!)
