How Raccoons Get Into Your Attic
Raccoons can turn vulnerable areas of a home into entry points.
Raccoons are strong climbers and commonly access Houston attics through damaged roof vents, soffits, roof returns, fascia gaps, and weak areas along the roofline. Once they find a vulnerable opening, they can pull or tear at materials to gain access.

Damaged or unsecured roof vents can give raccoons direct access into the attic.
Soffits & Roof Returns
Weak or damaged areas along the roofline are common raccoon entry points.
Fascia Gaps & Openings
Existing gaps or damaged materials can provide access into the structure.
