Get Rid of Raccoons from Homes Near Pickering’s Ravines and Green Spaces

Pickering and Ajax are two communities located only half an hour east of Toronto and known for some of the best hiking and cycling trails, lush ravines, and a beautiful waterfront. Forested neighbourhoods near Rouge Park, Altona Forest, or Duffins Creek Valley offer charm and an almost rural feel but they also act as natural raccoon highways, bringing animals from the wild to residential and commercial areas—especially in the fall as raccoons seek warm dens for overwintering.

Due to loss of habitat and their incredible intelligence and adaptability, raccoons don't stay in the forest - they move into your home.

Why Fall Triggers Raccoon Infestations from Green Spaces

Survival Instinct

Fall is the season to prepare for long and often harsh Ontario winters.  Here's what raccoons are looking for:

  • Warm and secure shelter to build a winter den;

  • Consistent food sources, often provided by unwitting humans (garbage, compost, outdoor pet food, etc.).;

  • Quiet places with little human interference; this could be garden sheds and other outbuildings, attics, storage units, or under decks and porches;

The Urban-Forest Edge Effect

Neighbourhoods that border ravines are highly attractive due to the availability of water, seclusion, and food. Raccoons are rather opportunistic creatures and much prefer a quick and easy meal over one that needs to be chased down. Hence, they have learned to appreciate human offerings and view areas near the forest edge as ideal habitats.

Raccoon Hotspots in Pickering: High-Risk Ravine-Edge Zones

Residents and property managers in the following areas see a stark increase in raccoon activity once autumn has arrived:

Rougemount / Highbush

  • Proximity to Rouge National Urban Park and a natural wildlife refuge;
  • Older homes, featuring large lots and mature trees;
  • Raccoons can easily access rooftops via fences and branches.

Altona Forest / Amberlea

  • Homes and schools are bordering dense forest;
  • Green bins, school dumpsters, and open vents make for  common entry points;
  • We receive many reports of raccoons entering attic crawlspaces.

West Shore / Bay Ridges

  • Close to Frenchman’s Bay and marshland trails;
  • Ideal for raccoons nesting under sheds, decks, or boathouses.

Duffins Creek Corridor

  • New developments + preserved lands = wildlife mixing with homes;
  • Commercial developments near hydro corridors and wooded lots are also affected.

Why Raccoons Easily Move Between Ravines and Homes

  • Unlike skunks or groundhogs, raccoons are motivated and agile climbers: They use fence lines, tree branches, and even utility poles to cross from ravines into backyards and rooftops;

  • Raccoons are also clever and strong and readily rip soffits, pry open vents, and dislodge shingles to gain access to homes.

  • Temporary exclusion methods fail when there’s a ready refuge in nearby woods.
