Nuisance wildlife such as raccoons, squirrels, and skunks often become problems when they are attracted to homes, buildings, and properties while searching for food, water, and shelter. Over time, wildlife species and people have come to live in proximity to each other, and it has become more difficult to keep them out of our trash cans, gardens, and homes.
Nuisance wildlife can introduce diseases and cause significant and costly damage to the structures of homes and personal property. They most often enter homes and other buildings in the late fall as they are looking for safe, warm shelter that is in proximity to food and water sources for the winter months.
Inside your home, nuisance wildlife species will destroy important structures as they create nesting areas. They will chew and claw through drywall, insulation, flooring, pipes, and wires, along with damaging personal property like clothing, furniture, and stored items. As well as the damage that they do to the inside of your home, they will also dig through trash, feed on garden areas, and cause damage to exterior windows, siding, and vents as they create exits and entrances indoors.
Nuisance wildlife has been proven to introduce serious diseases onto properties and into homes. Depending on the species, they can carry rabies, salmonellosis, and other pathogens, and introduce other parasites like fleas and ticks. They will also contaminate food and food prep areas in your home with their urine and feces.
It is important to always remember that these pests are wild animals and many will defend themselves if they feel cornered or threatened, and should only be handled by wildlife control experts.
