What Is Wildlife Removal?

If you have termites or cockroaches in your home, you may have a general sense of what you can and can’t do to get rid of these pests, including who to turn to for help. But what can you do and who can you call for help when animals and nuisance wildlife like squirrels, raccoons, birds or skunks enter your home? This article outlines a few different issues surrounding wildlife and animal control, but the bottom line is, always leave critter and wildlife removal and control to experts. 

Nuisance Wildlife

As humans move further out into the suburbs and take up more land, more and more wildlife and small animals have become used to humans and have started showing up in backyards, attics, crawl spaces and even open front doors. Certainly, most bats, birds, skunks, squirrels, raccoons and even opossums won’t infest your home or cause property damage, but they certainly can. Perhaps more worryingly, most of these animals carry pathogens that can cause serious and even fatal diseases in pets and humans. What should you do if you find any of these animals, or ones like them, in your home. 

Why Do You Need To Call An Animal Control Specialist?

There are several different laws that govern what species are protected, how they can be treated and by whom. Skunks, raccoons, squirrels and snakes are considered protected animals which require a special license to remove. Killing or trapping any of these animals, depending on your state’s laws, without a permit can end in steep fines or possible jail time. Check your state’s parks and wildlife commission, department of natural resources, or even the fish and game commission to learn which animals are protected in your state. Snakes, in particular, may have extra restrictions as many venomous species are similar in appearance to their nonvenomous cousins. 

On top of the legal issues that accompany animal removal, and perhaps more importantly to your health and the health of your family, because these animals are wild, they are unpredictable and will lash out if they feel threatened. Whether it’s in your home or on your property, small mammals, bats, birds or snakes need to be properly removed by a wildlife and animal control specialist near you.
