Raccoon On Roof In Hancock Park, Raccoon On Roof in Los Angeles
Yesterday I had a client call me out to the Hancock park area of Los Angeles because a raccoon was nesting in the eves of the roof where one roof overlaps another. There is a big space that goes four feet back in the roof and the raccoon has turned it into his home. I went on the roof to do an inspection to find the raccoon nesting in there. I backed off because it was 30 feet off the ground and on the edge of the roof. I set up some traps around the trees where the raccoon was accessing the roof. These raccoons are able to access peoples roofs from trees touching the roof line, climbing awnings, as well as shrubs that touch the roof. These are all ladders to the roof line. Se called me today to tell me I trapped the raccoon. I came out to remove it and did another roof inspection. The raccoon I caught was the one nesting in the eves. I removed the nest and the job was finished.
