Problems caused by wildlife in or around your home

Nuisance wildlife is more than just an annoyance; they can cause some serious problems in and around your home. Some of the things that can happen when nuisance wildlife invades your space include:

  • Unfriendly or even dangerous encounters with humans (especially children) and pets.
  • Noises like bumping and scratching in the walls and attic, especially at night.
  • Damage to insulation in the walls.
  • Chewed electrical wiring.
  • Urine and droppings in the basement, attic, or other areas of the home.
  • The spread of disease and illness to humans and pets.
  • Nesting sites in the attic, basement, crawlspace, and under the eaves of the house.
  • Introducing ticks, fleas, and mites to your pets and home.

Why wildlife seeks out your space

All pests, including nuisance wildlife, move into an area, such as your home, seeking three things: harborage, food, and water. With this in mind, there are some things that you can do to prevent wildlife from coming into your home. Do not leave food out in your home; keep a lid on your outside garbage can, and be careful of how you store food items in your basement or cellar. Do not allow water to stand in or around your home in areas like gutters, children’s toys, and pet dishes.

Things that could be used as nesting material like boxes, clothing, and certain types of holiday decorations should be secured in plastic crates with sealed lids. Inspect your home, looking for access points that animals can use to get into your home, then seal or block them. It is a good idea to hire a professional wildlife control services firm to do a complete inspection and provide recommendations for protecting your home and family from nuisance wildlife.
