Hearing noises in your attic? Noticing chewed wires, droppings, or torn insulation? These are signs of wildlife intrusion that can escalate into serious safety, health, and property risks. We remove animals safely, repair damage, and secure entry points for long-term protection.
We remove wildlife, sanitize affected areas, repair damage, and seal entry points — all backed by warranty.
Wildlife causes costly damage like chewed wiring, contaminated surfaces, and weakened structures, and can spread dangerous diseases. DIY fixes rarely work — call professionals for safe, effective, long-term solutions.
Different species leave unique clues. Listen for scratching, scurrying, chirping or thumping (often at dawn/dusk). Look for droppings, greasy entry holes, torn insulation, chewed wires, or damaged vents — each clue helps us diagnose the intruder quickly.
We’re building an interactive Wildlife Identifier Tool to help you narrow down suspects using the signs you see and sounds you hear.
| Wildlife Type | Common Signs & Sounds | Typical Damage | Entry Points | Risk Level |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raccoons | Loud thumping, chattering, nocturnal activity | Torn insulation, chewed wires, damaged soffits, garden destruction | Chimneys, uncapped vents, loose shingles, foundation gaps | High — fire & disease risk |
| Squirrels | Daytime scurrying, gnawing, scratching | Chewed wires, insulation damage, gnawed wood | Attic vents, eaves, soffits, overhanging trees | High — fire hazard from wires |
| Bats | High-pitched squeaks, fluttering at dusk | Guano buildup, wall stains, ammonia odor | Attic vents, fascia boards, chimneys, small cracks | High — histoplasmosis & rabies risk |
| Birds (pigeons, starlings) | Chirping, flapping, nesting sounds | Nesting debris, clogged vents, droppings, parasite risk | Vents, chimneys, gaps under eaves | Medium |
| Skunks | Musky odor, digging at night | Lawn damage from digging, burrows near foundation | Under decks, sheds, porches, foundation cracks | Medium — odor, rabies risk |
| Opossums | Shuffling, low thumping; nocturnal | Garbage raiding, garden damage, denning under structures | Decks, sheds, porches, foundation openings | Low–Medium |
