Raccoon Control & Exclusion in Rhode Island

Humane, Effective Solutions for a Common Local Nuisance

Raccoons are highly intelligent, adaptable creatures—but when they move into your attic, garage, or crawl space, they quickly go from fascinating to frustrating. At Sanders Wildlife Solutions, we provide professional raccoon exclusion and control services throughout Rhode Island, with a strong focus on Ethical removal, long-term prevention, and ecological responsibility.

Why Raccoons Are a Concern in Rhode Island

Rhode Island’s mix of urban, suburban, and woodland environments makes it a perfect habitat for raccoons. These nocturnal mammals are drawn to human homes in search of shelter, warmth, and food—especially during colder months or the spring birthing season. Common raccoon intrusions include:

  • Attics and soffits (ideal denning spots)
  • Chimneys and crawl spaces
  • Garbage bins and pet food areas
  • Rooflines, vents, and uncapped ducts

Left unchecked, raccoons can cause significant property damage, including torn insulation, chewed wiring, broken vents, and contaminated spaces from urine and feces. They also pose health risks, as raccoons are common carriers of diseases like rabies, leptospirosis, and raccoon roundworm.

Our Humane Raccoon Control Process

At Sanders Wildlife Solutions, we take a ethical, exclusion-based approach that aligns with Rhode Island’s wildlife regulations and our commitment to ethical practices.

Step 1: Thorough Inspection

We start with a detailed property inspection to identify entry points, signs of activity, potential attractants and conducive environmental conditions

Step 2: Animal Eviction

If raccoons are present, we use Industry adequate traps, deterrents, and eviction techniques to safely remove them—while minimizing stress to the animal(s).

Step 3: Exclusion & Repair

The client can then opt to seal all potential entry points using durable materials designed to withstand raccoon behavior, this service would be referred to as mechanical structural exclusion. We also offer attic restoration services if insulation or structural components have been damaged.

Step 4: Prevention & Monitoring

We provide clients with long-term recommendations, including wildlife-proofing tips, chimney caps, vent covers, and ongoing monitoring if needed.
