Some may be in your yard daily. While fun to watch, the wildlife is not there for entertainment purposes. They are in search of food, water and shelter. Depending on the season, they may be preparing for winter or preparing to give birth. Wildlife can quickly become nuisance wildlife when they start damaging your property, annoying you and your family, or posing a threat to humans. Calling a wildlife removal company can help you avoid risks, like being bitten by a potentially diseased animal, further damage to your property and fines due to broken laws. At Critter Control, we know the local and state laws and have the best safety equipment and extensive wildlife training. Our three-step process of inspection, removal and repair effectively gets rid of unwanted wildlife from your property quickly. Below are some examples. Raccoon Control Raccoons are furbearers. Many hunt them in the woods with a permit. In San Antonio, raccoons are urbanized nuisances. With their cute masks and fuzzy banded tails, they seem harmless. But as soon as the sun goes down, they go on the prowl for food and water, leaving destruction in their paths. They eat insects, bird eggs, frogs, rodents, fish, pet feed, garden crops and table scraps. They will dig holes in your yard, dumpster dive, raid gardens, scatter garbage and open feed containers looking for a snack. Raccoons create nests in hollowed trees, chimneys and attics. Raccoons will force their way into your home by breaking screens and boards. Or they will walk right through the pet door if it is left open. Raccoons can destroy your attic, chewing wires and shredding insulation. Blocking vents and chimneys create fire hazards. They are excellent climbers but destroy siding and shingles and leave greasy smudge marks wherever they go. Calling an expert to remove a raccoon is best. They understand the laws and know if nuisance raccoons need to be documented and turned in for disease testing. Inspection During the inspection, we determine the severity of the raccoon infestation. We look for physical evidence like footprints in or around the home, stains from raccoon feces and urine. On the exterior of the house, we look for damage like scratches on boards, broken vents and screens, ripped apart shingles, destroyed soffits, and every possible entry point. Raccoon Trapping Live trapping is one of the most efficient ways to get rid of a raccoon. Depending on the situation, a one-way door or excluder valve can be installed. An excluder valve works by allowing the raccoon to leave but blocks its reentry. The choice of device is largely dependent on the season and location of the raccoons on your property. Direct capture is not commonly used because raccoons are a rabies vector species. If we must trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the raccoons and we check traps frequently, based on state laws. Repairs We provide a wide range of repair and restoration services. We can repair raccoon damage like broken screens on vents and chimneys and broken boards on decks and porches. It is essential to apply cleaning agents and ectoparasite treatments on areas inhabited by raccoons. Rat and Mice Pest Control There are up to 50 species of rats and mice in San Antonio and across Texas. Outside, the Norway and roof rats are chewing holes in siding, electrical wiring, shingles and screens. They burrow underground, sometimes under trees, sheds or your home. This can make foundations unstable. The house mouse and its relatives are chewing holes in walls, baseboards, pantry cabinets and food containers inside your home. Both rats and mice leave trails of feces and urine as they travel around your home. Because rats and mice can carry several transmittable diseases, don’t risk getting bitten by removing them yourself. We can help get rid of your rat and mouse problem. Because rodents multiply quickly, the sooner you call, the better. Inspection During a rodent inspection, we thoroughly inspect your attic and provide a complete exterior home inspection. The most common signs of rodent activity are gnaw marks, feces, rub marks, nesting material, runs in insulation material, and small entry points. Rodent Trapping A Critter Control wildlife specialist will create a strategic trapping plan to remove the rodents found in your home. Critter Control specialists may use snap traps and live traps to capture and remove mice and rats. Rodent trapping can usually takes between five to fourteen days. Repairs The best way to reduce the possibility of letting unwanted rodents into homes is to seal possible entrances. Exclusion methods include caulking cracks in foundations, capping chimneys, and installing mesh covers over vents and crawl space entrances. We also strongly recommend a maintenance service. Rodents have front teeth that continuously grow, which means they can gnaw a new way back into your home. Squirrel Removal Texas squirrels you may see on your San Antonio property include the gray, fox and flying species. Squirrels enjoy fruits, nuts, grains, seeds, bird eggs, garden crops and even bark when times are hard. Squirrels’ teeth are constantly growing. To prevent overgrowth, they gnaw on hard objects. If...
