If you’re hearing heavy thumping in your attic at night or scratching above the bedroom ceiling, there’s a good chance a raccoon has moved in. In Irvine, raccoons thrive along the greenbelts, canyon edges near Bommer and Shady Canyon, and the tidy suburban neighborhoods in between — and a warm attic makes the perfect den, especially in spring when females are looking for a safe place to have their young.
Tri County Trappers provides humane raccoon removal in Irvine that solves the problem the right way: we get the animals out, seal the home so they can’t return, and clean up the mess they leave behind.
Signs you have a raccoon in Irvine
Raccoons are big, strong, and nocturnal, so the clues are usually loud and obvious: heavy footsteps or thumping after dark, chittering or growling sounds, torn attic vents or roof edges, tipped-over trash, and droppings in the attic or side yard. If you hear soft chirping, you may have a mother with babies — which needs to be handled carefully so no young are left behind in the walls.
How we handle raccoon removal calls in Irvine
Photos are from our own crews on real jobs across Orange County and Los Angeles — never stock. We run these same steps on every Irvine call.
How our humane process works
- Free inspection — we find how they’re getting in and whether babies are present.
- Humane eviction — we remove the raccoon (and any young together with the mother), never harming them.
- Exclusion & sealing — we seal every entry point with heavy-duty materials so no animal can chew back in.
- Cleanup & restoration — raccoon droppings carry roundworm and bacteria; we clean out the contamination and can replace soiled insulation to make your attic safe again.
Because we’re licensed and insured and follow California wildlife regulations, you get a solution that’s humane, legal, and built to last.

Frequently asked questions
How much does raccoon removal cost in Irvine? It depends on how many animals, whether young are present, and how much sealing and cleanup is needed. We give you a clear, no-obligation number after a free inspection.
Do you remove baby raccoons too? Yes — if a mother has denned in your attic, we remove her and her young together, humanely, so nothing is left behind.
