Raccoons Are Not Claustrophobic | Removal From An Attic

[@wwbdwwbd]

I was really worried they would hit their heads on those sharp looking nails.

Those things are horrifying.

That one baby can sleep through anything! The inside of the roof looks like the inside of the Iron Maiden with all those nail points. Great job moving everyone, including the camera man or woman!

I thought the baby Raccoon was going to fall off the roof! Mummy came just in the nick of time. Another brilliant team work rescuing more baby Raccoons. Hibfrom UK

[@smc130]

Brad seems more out of breath than usual, which concerns me. All the years of being in attics with insulation, I can’t help but worry a little. Please take care of yourself. You are very important to your family and all your subscribers. Keep an eye on dad, Cassandra!

[@thraciangrapes]

Yes, wear protective gear when working near insulation dust! Very dangerous when inhaled. The particles cannot escape the lungs as it is fibrous glass.

[@dianeknight4839]

They are so cute. Raccoons get a bad rap. I would be happy to have them in my attic. I do like how gentle you are with them.

[@shelleD87]

As an animal lover, I respect what you two do and I like to see the outcome of each job.

[@Windrider6]

I appreciate the third person as camera-person so we can see both of them in the same shot. The drone video was interesting also. The wildlife camera ("trail cam"), is always appreciated. 5:07 I cringed, thinking that he might scrape his head on all the nails! 10:25 Cringing again because Cassandra's head is so close to those nails. 22:41 Mother raccoon looks back at the "baby box" after removing the babies from it: "I don't know what that is, but I don't like it."

[@niteprowl2693]

Great drone footage really made this episode better. You did a great job of taking the babies out of a tight space. You guys rock.

[@z414141]

Have you guys thought about getting a little mini recorder with a microphone so that you can record the sounds of the babies and play them via your phone, which would amplify the sound to get the mother? It's something to consider.

[@karenhayes4743]

Great job! That did not look easy, but working beautifully together you got it done. Thank you for sharing.

[@DarthTrishalla]

But that bunny rabbit sitting back there watching😂😂😂👍👍

[@kidsafe]

I had to doubletake at the bunny approaching them. What planet is this?!

[@nancyb.7541]

Very interesting that this mother opted to take them all out of the box at the same time, rather than one by one as in all (?) of the other videos I have seen, and as you noted. It was definitely not as safe for her babies as they were moving about and could have fallen. To what do you attribute that? Inexperience? Another great job for GWC that was not so simple.

[@thraciangrapes]

Wow, this rescue was dangerous! Good job 👏 You guys are such heroes! 🏅 I'd love to buy a grey polo shirt like that with your logo info on it. I wanted to also mention how good looking your family is. So blonde like Swedish Ancestry.

Cassandra, What an impressive snag! You are a brave woman.

[@stinkycheese804]

I wonder whose attic they found a new home in! Looking at the aerial, that seems as likely as anything else unless there's an open shed somewhere she could find, I mean if she had a place as nest site #2 already.

[@upsc3662]

These guys are very quite and less noisy!!

[@MissAz2]

I love watching these...So interesting. Thank you for being humane...Have you ever been bit by one of the animals?

[@cristianavila955]

[@larryferd1510]

These videos always make me sad. Poor things having to find a new safe space to live. I my self would wait until they could roam with momma then seal the hole.

[@falcon2287]

The raccoons probably had an alternate nest site ready to move into. While they don't plan for Gates Wildlife Control to evict them they have another site ready to move into if their primary nest site is threatened or made uninhabitable at any time by predators, natural forces like floods, or even infestation by fleas and mites.

[@sharonbrown6595]

People do different things for sure some wait for them to leave home others want them out right away, gates wildlife seem to know the best time to get them out, I know a friend who Just waited and then fixed her roof. But animals esp raccoons r so smart and know where their secondary den site is. These people do a good job of making sure wild animals get to relocate,,,,,,,,,l these two seem to really care about animals as I know a company that would just kill them. Sometimes raccoons esp in Canada r considered pests.

[@stinkycheese804]

So more feces builds up in your attic where it's going to stink? Might be for the best to get the babies out before they start moving around a lot and wound themselves on the nails.

[@sharonbrown6595]

@@stinkycheese804 yes that is my way of thinking and if they r peeing on insulation that could eventually seep into the ceiling of the house ?? Also do raccoon bite the wires ?? I don’t know but I would want them out asap. I wouldn’t want to take that chance of damage to my house or shed ect. I would want them saved as this company does. But each person can do what they want with their property.

[@egyptcree7298]

Some Raccoons don't automatically move out of their nesting den sites after their babies are fully grown and are able to take care of themselves!! The whole family may stay there together and live their for awhile (months), which could become a problem because they get pretty big and heavy when they're full grown racoons, and can ruin and damage your attic, or even fall through the roof into the house at some point!! They could also attract more wildlife to move in, and that could be treacherous for a home owner to deal with, and very expensive to have everything removed and patched up!! Trust and believe me, I caught 11 Racoons with the help from the city's animal control before, and it was a very tough job trying to get rid of them all!!😩

[@SeanConneryShaken]

YES RACOON YES

[@sharonskaggs4178]

Please wear more protective gear, such as goggles and ear protection...Protect your heads with some kind of cap that can't be punctured...Good work team....😅😊

[@nadiarepich5199]

We cannot be sure they are now "safe" at the next den site. We can only hope they are now safe from human predators. This was not an easy job at all, but the rescue from the insulation & removal of maternal Mom & helpless babies for the clients went very well in the end. Paparazzi took pictures of the very cute babies & not the very pretty girl. "I only have eyes for you". . . "My love must be a kind of blind love I can't see anyone but you." What I would like to see is an alternative temporary housing in some corner of these properties in order to safely transition these beings & truly secure their safety for at least a while longer. Raccoons are never ever safe around humans according to our current laws & human attitudes, so calling Gates is the best option when raccoons can't stay a while longer. Good job.

[@fellow7091]

Going into attic under the nails without helmet seems adventurous and fool in my eyes. You never know if you had to escape angry mother fast and hit your head to the nails..
