Condo Burrowing Animals: Trapping Works, Foundations Safe

Animals under condo decks (moles, possums, raccoons) don't undermine foundations—excavation too shallow. Trapping removes current animals; exclusion prevents return.

Species-Specific

• Raccoons/possums: Box traps, professional removal.
• Moles: Ignore—they don't damage structures.
• Exclusion: L-footer buried fencing (12" down, 12" out) around deck perimeters.

Condo Action

1. Hire licensed trapper for large animals.
2. Install exclusion after removal.
3. Budget for maintenance, not emergency.

Foundations are safe; focus on humane removal and barriers.
