When the landlord jumps the gun... the raccoons get creative.
Landlord sent roofers to seal everything up before I could do my exclusion. So what does momma raccoon do? She makes an escape plan.
She found an old chimney stack — not open on top, but the void going down inside the wall was wide open. Momma popped out in a 2nd floor kitchen behind the fridge through a cut hole (hidden by the fridge, who knew).
She sees a window cracked about 3 inches... knocks over the CD collection, rips the screen clean out, and she's gone. Then climbs back up to the roof trying to get back in — that's the footprints on the chimney you see in the pic before I cut it open.
Meanwhile the babies fell to the basement and tucked themselves into a tiny crawlspace.
This is why you don't just "seal it up" with animals inside. You get chaos.
Call a pro who knows how they think.
