Professional Raccoon Removal services in Kissimmee, FL. Dr. Critter specializes in destructive behavior and aggressive territorial tendencies and provides expert wildlife control throughout Central Florida.

Raccoon Removal in Kissimmee, FL — key facts: Dr. Critter has worked Central Florida wildlife since 1996 — nearly three decades of raccoon removal work across Central Florida. Our team is registered with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) as a nuisance wildlife control operator, and the trapping, exclusion and relocation of raccoons is governed by FAC 68A-4.001 and 68A-9.010. We serve Kissimmee and the surrounding area with same-day response, lifetime warranty on structural exclusion work, and a 4.9-star rating across 391 Google reviews. Raccoon intrusions in Central Florida structures typically require both removal of the active animal and remediation of contaminated insulation or surfaces — we handle it as part of a single quoted job rather than billing the cleanup as a surprise second invoice.

Florida wildlife facts & law: According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, all 13 of the state's native bat species are protected, bat maternity season runs April 16 through August 14, and Florida Administrative Code 68A-9.010 makes exclusion during that window illegal. April 15 is the last day a building can be cleared without a permit, and the work cannot resume until August 15. The same rule governs how: FWC requires an exclusion device to stay up a minimum of four nights, and the work to be done when overnight temperatures are forecast to reach at least 50°F, so the colony can actually leave. According to University of Florida IFAS Extension, a roof rat female produces litters of five to eight pups after a gestation of only 21 to 23 days and can raise four or five litters a year, which is how one unsealed roofline gap becomes 20 to 40 rats inside twelve months. UF/IFAS also reports that the nine-banded armadillo, the only armadillo species in Florida, gives birth to four genetically identical young per litter, so one breeding pair is enough to leave an entire yard pocked with digging. On snakes, UF/IFAS puts Florida at roughly 50 native species of which only six are venomous, and records that just four of those six occur in central and southern Florida: the eastern diamondback rattlesnake, the pygmy rattlesnake, the cottonmouth, and the harlequin coral snake. So most of what turns up beside a pool deck here is harmless, and under FAC 68A-4.001 it is protected too. Because raccoons and bats are the state's principal rabies-vector species, FWC rule 68A-9.010 sets what may lawfully happen to one once it is caught, and the list is shorter than people expect: released on the capture property when the capture and release sites are one contiguous piece of land, released off site only if the animal is native and the receiving property is inside the county of capture, is at least 40 contiguous acres, and its owner's written permission is in hand at the moment of release, or euthanized humanely. Whichever it is, it happens within 24 hours of the capture or of the trap being checked. Relocating the animal to a park or a patch of woods is on none of those lists.

The work runs the same way in Kissimmee as everywhere else we go. Our page on raccoon removal covers the inspection, the check for young, what Florida law allows after the catch, and the warranty.

Raccoons on Kissimmee's lakefront and Shingle Creek

Kissimmee sits on the northwest shore of Lake Tohopekaliga, which locals call Lake Toho or West Lake, and Shingle Creek runs through the city on its way into it. The creek was named for the cypress on its banks, which was cut for wood shingles in the late 1800s, and that swamp is still the main wooded corridor through town. Shingle Creek Regional Park protects 456 acres of it, including the 1911 Steffee Homestead, and a paddling trail of about seven miles runs from Babb Landing down to the lake. Lakefront Park, Makinson Island and the Twin Oaks Conservation Area add more shoreline right against the city.

The housing near that water spans more than a century. Downtown, around US 192 and US 17/92, still has historic residences from the town's early decades, and those older roofs give a raccoon soffit and vent gaps to pry at. Most of the newer subdivisions came after Walt Disney World opened in 1971, and they were built around retention ponds, so even the dry streets are close to water.

How does raccoon removal work in Kissimmee?

Every job follows the same four steps. It starts with a free inspection to find the entry points, the signs of activity and the species, with no charge and no obligation. Removal comes next, by live trapping or one-way exclusion, and exclusion is the only method used for bats. Then every entry point is sealed with materials matched to the roofline, which is the step that prevents a return visit. Last comes cleanup where it is needed, with damaged insulation replaced and the lifetime warranty registered against every sealed entry.

Free Inspection

We walk the property, identify entry points, signs of activity, and the species we're dealing with. No charge, no obligation.

Humane Removal

Live trapping or one-way exclusion (mandatory for bats). Animals are relocated or excluded without harm, in compliance with Florida law.

Seal Entry Points

Every chew point, roof gap, and exclusion seam gets repaired with materials matched to your roofline. This is the step that prevents return visits.

Cleanup & Warranty

Attic decontamination if needed, damaged insulation replaced, and your lifetime warranty registered against every sealed entry point.
