Photo Album: Using the GOAT to Safely Trap Raccoons in Jackson, NJ
Use the GOAT
In order to safely climb this roof, we used our new safety device, The GOAT Steep Assist!
How Does it Work?
This roof ladder essentially consists of a hook and three 6-foot poles. The interlocked poles provide the necessary height and the hook is used to attach the steep assist to the rooftop. Once the hook is securely attached, we can climb or get down your roof via the three handles that are attached to each pole.
Raccoon One-Way
First, I installed our one-way device, which is designed to allow the raccoon to safely leave the area but prevent it from getting back in. Next, I placed several baited devices nearby.
Now for the Exclusion
Once the raccoon is safely retrieved, I'll disinfect the attic area, seal up the access point with sturdy, metal flashing, and relocate the raccoon to a humane location.
