Raccoon Waste Removal Introduction
Sgt. Poopers provides waste removal for wild animals including raccoons in Dallas, Texas. Raccoon waste is a serious human and pet health risk. Do not disturb it without wearing a respirator. Both the feces and urine from raccoons can spread diseases including,
- Raccoon roundworm
- Giardia
- Salmonella
- Leptospirosis
Raccoon Latrines
Raccoons tend to deposit waste into a communal area like the base of a tree, wood pile, stump, or rock garden which is used by other raccoons, also. If one of these community toilets happens to be in your yard you've got a hazard to your health. Indoors raccoons can choose to use your deck or porch, your attic, or your garage. Raccoon feces are dark and tubular and have a pungent odor. If a raccoon has made a latrine in your yard below a fence or tree limb, we can remove the waste for you and through odor control we can sometimes coax a raccoon to go elsewhere by treating the area with a non-toxic odor that humans like but raccoons don't care for. No harm is done to the raccoons so it's a win win.
Raccoon roundworm eggs are present in their feces and are so tiny that if disturbed, they can float into the air and be inadvertently inhaled by you, a child, and especially by a dog since they like to sniff everything! After the eggs are ingested, larvae migrate to the brain or other bodily areas which can result in serious illness within a week. Immediate treatment is necessary. This is a dangerous pathogen and can even be fatal if not treated. Raccoon roundworm can damage the central nervous system, organs. Severe cases have resulted in blindness and coma. In addition to roundworm infections, raccoons bring with them a range of parasites including fleas, lice, ticks, and mites.
That's why raccoon poop poses a real threat to humans and your pets including both cats and dogs.
Wildlife Control for Raccoons
Raccoons are common carriers of both distemper and rabies. In the later stages of these diseases, their behavior is startling to say the least. They convulse, fall over backwards, grimace, gnash their teeth, freeze up, and can become very aggressive without warning. Stay FAR AWAY from any raccoon — or fox, for that matter — and call animal control. Do not let your pets go near any wild animals.
Raccoons also spread a bacteria infection called Leptospirosis spread through contact with raccoon urine. Leptospirosis infects 100–200 Americans every year. If not caught early, Leptospirosis can result in liver and kidney damage. Complications include renal and liver failure, and cardiovascular problems.
Due to the above, when cleaning up raccoon waste, Sgt. Poopers staff follow a different protocol which includes wearing a respirator.
For these reasons and many more, you should not feed raccoons. They are cute, but you do not want these animals hanging around. They strong enough to rip into screen, siding and roof tiles and take up residence inside your porch, attic or walls bringing with them fleas, lice, mites and more. Treating them like pets can be a costly mistake.
Disinfecting Raccoon Waste
Due to the toxicity of wildlife waste, we cannot just remove it and call it "done." The job isn't complete until we also disinfect each area where their waste hit the ground.
To do that, we use a cutting-age, food-grade, EPA-approved and NSF-certified hospital disinfectant to break the chain of infection at the molecular level. The chemistry is non-toxic to humans, pets, and beneficial insects. It reacts with sulfur atoms in the amino-acid proteins that form the membrane of bacteria and viruses. This reaction causes 99.999% of harmful microbes to rupture and die in seconds.
When Ebola struck Dallas in 2014, this is what hazmat workers used to successfully disinfect the contaminated spaces. It is an EPA-registered antimicrobial that meets CDC criteria for use against Ebola, yet this same disinfectant is so safe you can wash your hands with it (which we do frequently). It is non-toxic, non-flammable, non-hazardous, and causes no respiratory nor skin irritation in animals or humans. It is certified as no rinse required. Respirators or rubber gloves are not required for application. Our disinfectant is simply one of the best, safest and most effective disinfectants there is. And we're pretty proud of it.
Deodorizing Raccoon Waste
Our antimicrobial deodorizer destroys the cause of malodor by oxidizing the microscopic organisms that cause it. Noxious odors are caused by bacteria. By destroying bacteria, there is nothing left to create odor.
People perceive certain odors as offensive since the human body recognizes them as a warning against potential disease. The smell of a animal feces or urine registers as "offensive" to us because the smell indicates the proximity a serious health risk. After thousands of years of evolution, your body knows.
Our EPA-registered non-toxic odor eliminator neutralizes the source of odors on a molecular level. Other odor products can cause allergic or asthmatic reactions. Ours contains no scents, perfumes, nor fragrances and is fit for the most sensitive allergy suffers. It’s also hypoallergenic, non-hazardous, non-irritating, and contains no volatile compounds (VOCs) to pollute the beautiful atmosphere over the city of Dallas.
Driving Raccoons Away
The waste from most wild animals should be considered dangerous to humans and pets. Sgt. Poopers can deal with any kind of outdoor waste removal for pets or wild animals including raccoons, squirrels, rats, mice, possums, geese, ducks, pigeons, feral cats, stray dogs, or migrating birds.
At Sgt. Poopers, our specialty is conservation, not just waste removal, so we can provide solutions that other providers don't offer. When it comes to wildlife waste control, we have the means to disinfect and kill the dangerous germs in their waste that make it a biohazard. As part of our mission of conservation we provide unique odor control protocols that can help to humanely persuade wildlife to move on or move elsewhere.
