We are Michigan's top experts in wildlife and raccoon control. We are not a typical Detroit raccoon control or pest control company. We don't treat wild animals like insects, because they are not! You can't just use poison to get rid of them. You also can't just set a few traps on the ground and call it good. Each situation is unique.

Detroit Raccoon Control Tip: An Introduction To Raccoon Roundworm And How It Can Affect You And Your Pets
There are many diseases that can be transmitted from raccoons to people, and these can be transmitted in different ways, and once contracted they can cause some serious symptoms for those who catch the parasites. It is always important to take the appropriate precautions when trying to deal with a raccoon infestation or cleaning up a raccoon latrine, to help protect you from this risk. Here is more detailed look at raccoon roundworm, and how it can be transmitted and becomes a threat to people and their pets.

The Biology Of The Disease
Although these parasites can find their way into other species, the main reservoir of these small worms are in raccoons, and it is estimated that around 70% of all animals are actually carriers of these roundworms. The parasites spread through the population by the communal latrines that some raccoons will use, which then see a buildup of new roundworm eggs, which are released through the feces of the raccoons. Once the eggs then infect another animal, they will hatch, and the worm then works its way into the intestines of that raccoons, with the cycle starting again.

How Is Raccoon Roundworm Transmitted?
When it comes to people and pets contracting raccoon roundworm, it is almost always through the raccoon feces that they will come into contact with the roundworm eggs. Pets such as cats and dogs are naturally inquisitive, and if they find feces in the garden that they perceive as their territory, they can contract roundworm through investigating the feces. Transmission to people is generally quite rare, but will usually happen if people are dealing with a raccoon infestation or cleaning a raccoon latrine without covering their mouth or eyes. 

What Are The Symptoms Of Raccoon Roundworm?
For those people who contract raccoon roundworm, the symptoms can be quite severe, and especially if the eggs find their way into the person's eyes, this can actually lead to blindness. It can take up to four weeks for the full symptoms to display, but these will begin with nausea, fatigue and a gradual loss of muscle control. As the condition takes hold this can become a lot more serious, with liver enlargement and even leading to coma in those people who haven't looked for medical advice after the earlier symptoms.

Symptoms Of The Disease In Pets
The symptoms of a raccoon roundworm infection in dogs is actually similar to that in people, with a loss of muscle control and lethargy being among the early symptoms of infection. It can also lead to dogs circling for a longer period than usual, and an increased level of confusion in situations where they would previously have been comfortable. Ultimately, this can cause damage in a range of the animal's organs, and where the condition fully takes hold it can actually cause paralysis in the animal too. 

How To Treat Raccoon Roundworm
The available treatments for raccoon roundworm are currently quite limited, and for people there have been some cases where Albendazole has been used successfully, but even this is not guaranteed to work as a treatment. So far, there are very limited results in terms of treatments that have been used to successfully cure dogs and other pets that have contracted the disease. Therefore, prevention is by far the best option if you are worried about disease transmission, and making sure that you deal with any raccoon infestation properly, and clean it while wearing a breathing mask and goggles, will help to minimize the chances of you or your pets contracting raccoon roundworm.
