How to Keep Raccoons Out of Your House

Curious, intelligent, opportunist. All describe the raccoons. Known to be smart innature, they are adapting to surrounding needs. Capability to do a lot of things serve them highly in a human centeredsociety. With their adaptation, a lot of people do not see raccoons as wild animals. City dwellers can surely attest to almost daily encounterwith raccoons. To most people, it is a welcome development. To a larger population, ithas causeda bit of problemfor them. With raccoons breaking every barrier of impossibility, raccoons might just become uninvited guests living under your roofs like rodents. However, a fact we probably didn't notice is that our urban dwellings are raccoons infested. Our home is their point of next call.

If our homes are next, what can keep them out? Our doors and windows? Or, can they open them too like our garbage can? Yes, raccoons can and do open our doors and windows. And no, they can't. This article will shed more light on this andhow to prevent raccoons constantly breaking into your home.

Though, of varying sizes (ranges from 15 to 60 pounds in urban raccoons) andlengths (ranging from 20 to 30 inches), raccoons can fit in smallspaces in your windows and doors. Raccoons generally tend to find their way into your abode if there are promises of food. With great dexterity in climbing, getting to your windows is not an issue. Raccoons are very agile and smart. They have learnt to push doors and windows.



Although they are better known for entering into the house via the attic and chimneys, they can also getinto your home. Acquainted with deftly opening garbage cans, they can open your doors and windows if they are loosely closed. In an experiment to determine how smart raccoons were, they were given locks to open. It panned out they unlocked 11 of 13 locks; even after they turned upside down. They can open doors and windows with latches. However, it is impossible to open a locked door or window.

If your doors and windows use knobs that are smooth and round, there is a high probabilitythat raccoons can't open them. Raccoons do not have thumbs that enhance grip. With extending claws, grip is almost impossible as toes are disturbed by long claws. Long claws might also serve as an advantage for them as they can dig in the window. Several times it has been established that raccoons get into windows that had cracks or were left opened.

Your window pane can also be compromised by these critters. All it takes is to cut out part of the glass and come in. In most cases, once your window is compromised, they complete the damage and let your pane fall off completely. Having these creatures get into your home isn't the proper way. To keep them off, keep off any form of source of food for them. Keep your windows closed properly. Cut off trees branches that might prove a route to your window.

Keep your windows bolted and you might never have to suffer a midnight shriek.
