The Problem: A homeowner in Austin's Quail Creek neighborhood discovered a juvenile raccoon inside their HVAC utility closet, having gained access from the attic. Concerns included the animal's well-being and the potential for property damage or contamination, necessitating immediate and humane intervention.

The Solution: Our team conducted a thorough inspection, identifying a soffit vent above the garage as the likely entry point. We applied humane eviction fluid in the attic to encourage the raccoon to vacate naturally. To monitor its departure and confirm successful exclusion, surveillance cameras were strategically deployed at the suspected exit point. We also outlined a comprehensive plan for installing durable vent guards to fortify all potential entry points, ensuring a robust and lasting solution upon confirmation of the animal's departure.
