Middle of the Night Raccoon Removal
At midnight, I heard a big bang downstairs in my kitchen. I came down to check what had fallen down – and to my surprise, there was a raccoon, perched on my kitchen counter, staring back at me. (Apparently, it had come down through my chimney.) My husband and I would then take the next two hours coming up with different ways of attempting to lure the raccoon out into the backyard. After it decided to run and hole itself up in the hollow of our cabinets, and we felt like we were at the limit of extraction experiments that were wise to try, it was time to call the professionals.
I visited Homestars and called 6 or 7 other companies who advertised that they were available for emergency calls but never picked up, Sherwin did! And he was at my house within the hour, AT 2:30 IN THE MORNING. After I saw what it takes to remove a raccoon from my house, I am convinced it takes a professional. He came well prepared – even with a smoke bomb to smoke out that stubborn animal. And that animal put up a fight. But Sherwin won!
Thanks to Sherwin we were saved from that ordeal approximately in a half hour. Extremely professional, but friendly...even a great sense of humour at 2:30 in the morning!
I wholeheartedly recommend Sherwin for anyone who is looking for someone to remove wildlife from their property.
