Raccoons are the strongest, smartest animal I deal with, and they're basically a toddler with claws and a grudge. A homeowner hears heavy thumping overhead, way too loud for a squirrel, and finds their attic vent screen torn open like it was nothing. That's a raccoon. The first thing I'm worried about is the latrine, because raccoons pick one corner of the attic to use as a toilet, and those droppings can carry roundworm eggs that stay infectious for a long time, so that's PPE and possibly removing soiled insulation, not just a scoop and sweep. In spring I'm assuming there's a litter until I prove otherwise, because excluding a mother and leaving kits behind means dead babies in the wall and a far worse callback. I'll often hand-remove the young to draw the mother out, then set a one-way door so she can leave but not get back in. When I seal the house, flimsy doesn't cut it; a raccoon has hands, it will pry and tear and lever, so I'm screwing down heavy welded wire and lag bolts, not stapling up a screen. Then I'm back over the next several days to confirm the attic's empty before I close the last hole. Strong, clever, and persistent, every part of the job has to account for an animal that's actively trying to undo my work.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

Your people are already online — swapping real numbers, tool picks, and war stories. Here's where to find them.
We build a raccoon removal technician's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a raccoon removal technician — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
