Raccoons are not a desert animal by nature, but the Colorado River and Lake Mohave give them exactly the water corridor they need to thrive here.
Call (844) 924-1337Summer temperatures past 110 degrees would normally rule a place out for an animal like a raccoon, but Bullhead City sits directly on the Colorado River across from the casino lights of Laughlin, and Lake Mohave's marinas and river recreation areas keep enough water and shade close by to make the heat beside the point. Backyard pools and irrigated landscaping extend that advantage further inland, giving raccoons a travel route the surrounding desert flatly can't match.
Once they've claimed that route, raccoons hole up in attics, chimneys, and beneath detached sheds, and they'll go after pet food, garbage, and any koi or pond fish left within reach. Because the Colorado River and Lake Mohave account for their presence more directly than the desert heat ever could, sightings cluster tightly along the waterfront rather than showing up evenly citywide.

Live trapping and relocation, followed by sealing the entry point, is the general approach for raccoons denning in or around a home. Because raccoons can be defensive and carry health risks, this is usually safer left to a professional with proper equipment.
Securing trash cans and pet food can reduce yard visits, but recurring activity or a suspected den warrants a professional assessment rather than an attempt to handle the animal.
It depends on your local animal control's policies and the specific situation. Municipal programs may focus on strays or immediate public-safety concerns; check the local service scope and discuss property-specific raccoon activity with PestGuardians. Worth checking what your local animal control actually covers before assuming either way.
