Raccoons along the Indian River in Titusville
Titusville raccoons have a long buffet line. The Indian River Lagoon runs the entire east side of town, the refuge on Merritt Island sits right across the water, and drainage canals and ponds wind through most neighborhoods. Raccoons follow that water at night looking for crabs, fish scraps and frogs, then cut through yards on the way back to cover.
On the way, they find trash cans, pet food on the porch and fruit trees, and sooner or later they find a house with a soft spot. In Titusville that’s often a weathered soffit on a 1960s ranch home, an open crawl space on an older riverfront house or loose skirting on a manufactured home.

Low ranch attics make raccoons loud
A lot of Titusville homes went up during the space program boom, and many are single-story block ranches with low-pitched roofs. That leaves a tight attic with not much room between the rafters and your ceiling, so a full-grown raccoon walking around up there sounds like it’s in the room.
These older roofs also have decades of wear. Wood fascia softens with moisture, aluminum soffit pulls away at the corners, and storm repairs don’t always get finished cleanly. A raccoon can grab a loose edge and peel it open with its hands.
Under the house is a den too
Not every Titusville raccoon goes up. Under manufactured homes, decks and sheds, a mother can raise kits in the dark and stay dry. Pulled skirting or a hole dug along the edge is the clue.
A few recent calls
Raccoon clues around Titusville homes
Here’s what people in Titusville usually notice before they call us about raccoons.
Thumping overhead at night
Heavy, slow movement in the ceiling after dark, and again around dawn when she comes home.
Chattering in spring
From late winter into early summer, kits make a high-pitched churring or chirping sound.
Soffit panels hanging down
A bent or dropped soffit section, usually at a corner, is a classic raccoon entry.
Skirting pushed out
On mobile homes, a raccoon will pull a skirting panel loose or dig under it to get beneath the floor.
Trash cans tipped every night
If the cans are getting raided over and over, a raccoon is living close by.

We had a raccoon who preferred to use our pool and back yard as a personal toilet. After trying the usual internet suggestions we called Kevin the Critter Guy. The first night the trap was set the raccoon was caught. The bad news? It was so big that the trap was forced open in 15″. Over the next several weeks we added traps, tried different baits and different locations to no avail. Kevin never gave up and ultimately used red fox urine. It hasn’t been back since. When a service goes as planned it’s an easy job. The true test? What is the response when it’s not easy. Kevin never backed off and ultimately the raccoon is gone. Highly recommended.

CritterGuys are the best! From my first positive interaction with Annie to my continued excellent service through Mike, CritterGuys have been superb! So far, they have quickly and professionally removed two raccoons and have set more traps in case more may follow. CritterGuys have been prompt, courteous, and professional. I will recommend them and call again if needed! Thank you, CritterGuys!

Raccoon health risks Titusville families should know
Raccoons are among the animals most often found with rabies in Florida. Most never show signs, but any raccoon that’s out in daylight acting strange, stumbling or unafraid should be left alone, and pets should be kept inside.
Raccoon latrines are the other concern. Droppings can carry raccoon roundworm eggs, and they stay in insulation and soil for a long time. After removal, our attic cleanup in Titusville takes the latrine and soiled insulation out and sanitizes the space.
- Don’t feed or approach raccoons
- Keep pet food inside at night
- Use lidded, latched trash cans
- Never handle droppings bare-handed
Raccoon removal in a Titusville house, step by step
Our raccoon removal in Titusville follows the same humane order on every job, the same way we work raccoon calls in Orlando.
Full inspection
We find the den, the entry point and any other weak spots, and check for kits.
Remove the family
Adults are live-trapped or removed directly under FWC rules, and kits are removed by hand so they stay with mom.
Seal the way in
The opening gets closed with heavy-duty material she can’t pull back off. When the whole roof line or skirting needs work, wildlife exclusion in Titusville takes care of it.
Clean up and repair
Latrines, nest debris and damaged insulation come out, and chewed or torn areas get fixed. If other animals turn up during the inspection, our Titusville animal removal crew handles them too.

What Titusville homeowners ask about raccoon removal
Have a question that isn’t here? Call or text (321) 203-6963 and we’ll help.
What does raccoon removal cost in Titusville?
We quote once we’ve inspected the house in person. The price depends on where the raccoon is living, whether there are kits, how many openings need sealing and how much cleanup and repair are needed. You’ll see the plan before we start.
Can you get a raccoon out from under my mobile home in Titusville?
Yes, that’s a common job here. We remove the raccoon and any kits, then repair or reinforce the skirting so she can’t get back underneath. We also check for other openings around the base of the home.
Why are raccoons in my yard every night near the river?
The Indian River and the canals give raccoons food and travel routes, and yards nearby offer trash, pet food and fruit. They’ll keep coming if those are easy to reach. Lidded cans and bringing pet food in help a lot.
Is it okay to leave a raccoon in the attic until the kits grow up?
It’s better to have us remove the family now. Raccoons damage insulation, ducts and wiring while they’re up there, and the latrine keeps growing. We remove the kits by hand so they stay with their mother.
Will a raccoon come back after you seal the hole?
Not through that hole. Raccoons are strong and persistent, so we use heavy materials and check the rest of the roof line for weak spots. That’s what keeps them from just finding another way in.
