This unexpected twist of a job was prompted by a customer reporting strange noises. Despite no prior signs of a baby crying, our team conducted a standard attic inspection to rule out any possibilities but no babies were found during the initial check. As the installation of the one-way door commenced, a surprising turn of events unfolded. The unmistakable sounds of a baby reached our ears, adding a layer of complexity to the job.
This video captures the suspenseful moments as our team navigates through the discovery of the babies, showcasing the resourcefulness and acrobatic skills of a mother raccoon, who, astonishingly, manages agility even with a baby in her mouth!
Join us on this captivating journey as we delve into the world of wildlife encounters, where every job brings its own set of surprises. Don't miss out on witnessing the resilience and dexterity of a mother raccoon in this unique Gates Wildlife KZfaq episode!

Awesome video. I often wonder whether you ever end up removing the same family from different houses. Those roofs are so close together. I sure love seeing the babies.

I was just about to ask this question. Because I'm sure the mom is going into someone else's Roof. That becomes a problem for the whole neighborhood. SMH

She spent so long checking to make sure that no babies were left behind, did it worry you that there might have been a 4th one still in the house?

@nadiarepich5199 5 ай бұрын

I think Gates has enough experience & knowhow for you to be absolutely sure there is no one left.

The proximity of those roofs really makes it easy for them to traverse without being seen. The brick also seems to aid them in getting up and down the gutters. There's a good 10 foot gap to our nearest neighbor's roof, so they were using the tree branches to get to our roof, which have since been trimmed back. No sign of racoons returning to our house yet, after the trapping and repair/protection work we had done last year.

I had a racoon problem in my attic. I just bought a cage trap and racoon bait. Three days three racoons trapped, three trips to their new home by a lake.

@dianamoore2241 5 ай бұрын

Do you repair the damage you have to do to remove the baby raccoons or do the owners have to make a claim to their insurance company?

@gateswildlife 4 ай бұрын

Yes, in a situation like this the soffit was easily put back in place with no damage caused. For the most part we take care of repairing other damages caused by the raccoon. However, in some cases, particularly with roof-related damages, homeowners may need to consult with a roofer after our work is completed.

I wonder if there was another one that u guys missed in the soffit she was acting weird around the box

@deboz8793 4 ай бұрын

Weird question, but have you ever encountered a mother raccoon trying to make a home in one of the boxes? Or are the boxes too small for her and the kits?

@2packs4sure 5 ай бұрын

The magic of raccoons,, they tear in to your house,, do significant damage to your home,, you call the pest removal people,, they get them out,, the total cost is under your deductible but not at all cheap,, it's magic,,,, and of course the raccoons move on to another house nearby to start the process over for another lucky homeowner with a $5000 deductible... They're wonderful precious darlings !!

@rachaellongobardi4630 Ай бұрын

I have a question. Have you ever found when you’ve gone back to pick up the box? That mummy raccoon has decided the box is a good place to make a new den and they’re all in there? Chilling?

@nadiarepich5199 5 ай бұрын

Humans won't stop until every last inch of wild land will have been destroyed. As a radical animal rights person (Abolitionist Approach) & also radical environmentalist, it also needs to be said that when such conflicts of interests are involved (human vs animal with regard to property damage) this Gates approach should not be considered an option. The Gates method should be the rule not an option. I always feel sorry for the evicted--some worse than others. Imagine being a Mom & having to protect & provide for your children. They had a class where raccoons were drowned in their cages in front of students who didn't rebel. A class lesson. "When wolves or coyotes (or raccoons) are called “vermin,” however, evil becomes unleashed on the world. In the heyday of wolves being called vermin in North America, people did monstrous things to wolves like setting them on fire or tying their mouths shut and letting them go. The human- supremacist worldview devises such language (like “vermin”), but language itself has the power to maneuver perception into the modality of seeing as. Awful things can be done to beings who are seen as vermin. In recent times, we have also witnessed extreme cruelty, extermination campaigns, and herbicide warfare directed against animals and plants labeled “invasive.” The power of language to cast a dark net over the world, its power to bewitch and lead morally astray, cannot be overestimated." Eileen Crist. If you want things to change, everything needs to be changed from the bottom up. Right now as it stands, Gates appears to be doing a great job. I would personally make a box in the corner of my property for the mother & babies for a few more weeks. The raccoons are still in deadly danger from other humans.

What I’ve learned from these videos is that animals can’t count.

@gateswildlife 4 ай бұрын

Mother raccoons exhibit a strong maternal instinct, and it's not uncommon for them to return one final time to ensure all their babies are accounted for before leaving the nesting site!

@dianesaienni5466 4 ай бұрын

This stinks poor mother has no where to go that is safe for her babies. if it was me I'd build a temporary shelter...I mean they will be gone in 8 to 10 weeks. we've had many animals take shelter under our shed and just give them quiet and space. the shed door is always partially open year round of situations just like this.
