Bat removal: Humane Wildlife Removal and Control Experts.

Call (866)-263-WILD 24/7 and speak with a trusted professional. Licensed, Insured and Certified.

Bat season is about to close.

These night-flyers are not typically a danger to humans. In fact, they are quite beneficial when it comes to their appetite for insects, like mosquitoes that pose a much greater health risk to us. The problems occur when they are attracted to people’s homes and businesses. Our technicians are trained in the biology and habits of these nocturnal animals, and can execute bat removal safely.

Don’t attempt to discourage these beneficial predators from nesting by blocking up entry points by yourself, especially during maternity season. If trapped, they will try to escape, and can wind up in your living space. Trapped adults and their nestlings can die, and leave a terrible, lingering odor. Property owners should never attempt to handle them on their own – it is always better to call a trained bat removal service to handle it for you.

Our service professionals can come out to your property and assess the problem quickly and efficiently. We can find where they are gaining access, and advise you on how to address structural issues, such as loose fixtures, gaps where water may be present, or holes that are allowing access to attics.

If you act quickly, before the exclusion period begins, these gaps and structural issues can be addressed. If you wait, you will have to wait until fall in order to block access. Give us a call for a free estimate today!

Are Raccoons Homesteading In Your Attic?

The best thing you can do when it comes to raccoons in your attic is to call a professional wildlife trapper.

Raccoons don’t have a very long life span, and a high percentage of them die where their nest is. If that is in your attic, then you’ll know pretty soon if something has died up there. The pungent odor can make your home unlivable for weeks.

We can catch them, or if it’s too late, retrieve their carcass and treat the area with odor eliminating enzymes. Both dead animal removal and odor control are services we offer at Nuisance Wildlife Removal.

Raccoon droppings can be toxic to humans. Raccoons tend to use a common latrine area. If that area is in your attic, its a no mans land of bacteria and disease.

Raccoons are often infected with the Baylisascaris roundworm. This is a common parasite in raccoons, some areas of the country have a 70 to 100 percent infection rate. If infected, the raccoons droppings will be full of microscopic round worm eggs, that can stay viable for years, until ingested by a mammal, where it hatches and goes to work on the host’s brain tissue, causing a host of health issues and death.

I Certainly Would Never Put Raccoon Poop In My Mouth!

You would be surprised at how easy it can be. If raccoons have lived in your attic, even in the past, their droppings will eventually degrade and turn to dust. If anything stirs that up, those little roundworm eggs become airborne. If the raccoons happened to damage your air conditioning duct work, then that airborne toxin can enter your ventilation system and you could be breathing it right now.

Do you keep your Christmas decorations in the attic? Are they dusty? Be careful wiping those boxes off if you have ever had a bat or raccoon infestation in your attic.

Raccoons go out usually at night, to forage for food. They might decide that your mulch or compost pile seems like a good outdoor bathroom. Just digging through the pile to distribute it may also be distributing a health risk in your yard. Small children are at the highest risk for Baylisascaris roundworm infection due simply to the fact that they touch most things that they see, and their hands go in their mouths more often than older kids and adults.
