Seguin, TX Squirrel and Raccoon Removal Under the Pecan Canopy
Seguin's big pecans and oaks shade some of the oldest homes in the area, and they give squirrels and raccoons a direct route onto the roof. Once an animal finds a loose soffit or vent, the attic becomes part of its routine. We trace how it is getting up, remove it, and show you which openings it has been using.
WHY SEGUIN IS DIFFERENT
What Falls From a Pecan Tree Feeds More Than Squirrels
Fallen pecans are one of the most dependable seasonal foods a yard can offer. Through fall and into winter they draw squirrels by day and raccoons and opossums after dark, and the tree dropping them is often the same one leaning over the roof. Many of Seguin's historic homes sit under limbs that have grown for decades, above soffits, fascia, and old repairs that have had just as long to loosen. Along the Guadalupe and around Max Starcke Park, river cover adds raccoons that only have to cross a street or two to reach those rooflines.
COMMON CALLS
Which Animal Is Using Your Seguin Home?
Most Seguin calls start with noise overhead or something living under the house. When the noise happens and where the damage shows up usually tell us which animal it is.
WHY TXWML
Older Homes Hide More Entry Points Than They Show
A historic Seguin home may have a porch roof added in one decade, an addition in another, and repairs on top of both. Each change leaves seams where materials meet, and many are only visible from the roof or the crawl space. We check those transitions, not just the hole you already found.
​
You deal directly with Kevin Luce, the owner, who has trapped Texas wildlife for more than 30 years. He inspects the house, handles the removal, and tells you plainly what drew the animal in, whether that is a limb over the roof, a gap in the skirting, or pecans piling up under the eaves.
Pecans and acorns drop in the fall, putting a heavy food supply right next to the house. Squirrels spend more time in the yard and on the roof, so a weak soffit nearby gets tested more often.
Usually not. Limbs touching or hanging close over the roof are the problem, because they give squirrels and raccoons an easy way up. We point out which limbs are part of the route.
Daytime scratching and running usually means squirrels. Heavier thumping at night is more typical of a raccoon.
Yes. Gaps in skirting, broken foundation vents, and loose access panels let skunks and opossums into the space beneath the floor.
No. Young may still be inside, and closing the opening can trap them or push the mother to chew a new way in. Leave it open until we confirm the space is empty.
Homes near the Guadalupe and Max Starcke Park are closer to river cover, which raccoons use to travel and rest. Homes farther away still see raccoons moving along tree lines and drainage.
Yes. Hog trapping and coyote control on acreage fall under our Land Management services.
When you hear the activity, which part of the house it is in, any damage you have found, and whether trees hang over the roof. Photos help.
