How Decatur Wildlife Removal Services Help Relocate Unwanted Residents

By Dave L. Weglin


As natural habitats become fragmented, the lives of human beings and wild animals inevitably overlap. Most people enjoy watching animals in a natural setting, but do not want them scratching around in the attic or stealing the pet food. When wild outdoor creatures become residential pests, Decatur wildlife removal services helps capture and relocate them safely and humanely.

Service employees use capture methods that are both legal and environmentally sound. Harmful insect infestations sometimes require chemical aerosol treatment, but the same method used on larger creatures such as raccoons or bats become cruel as well as unnecessary. Poisoned animals die within the walls, creating a greater hazard. Popular controls such as glue traps work, but the animals succumb to starvation or suffocation.

To avoid those complications, many homeowners rely on wildlife control companies for assistance. A thorough inspection to determine the range and scope of the invasion begins the process, which also includes a general estimate of the time and expense necessary for completion. The smallest entry points are found, breeding nests located, and the existence of babies confirmed or eliminated.

When a population is well-established, there must also be education about preventing a recurrence. Methods include installing animal exclusion devices that cannot easily be circumvented, as well as plugging all very small holes. Because attics or other nesting areas must also be thoroughly cleaned of parasite-containing waste, the work does not end with capture.

Many snakes, birds, bats and larger animals are covered by local laws governing how they may be treated. To control and eradicate rabies and other diseases, some areas require captured creatures to be euthanized. Other species enjoy protections against even the appearance of harmful action. An experienced, reputable business will be able to explain fully which limits may apply.

Neither local animal control officers nor standard insect pest control agents work with populations of wild animals. Insect eradication commonly involves toxins, and most shelter workers are not trained in current trapping techniques. Similarly, removal services concentrate on removing only vertebrates, and rarely become involved in situations dominated by wasps, bees or ants.

From evicting squirrels to discouraging aggressive pigeons from moving in, a reputable service must comply with all federal, state, and local regulations. Not only must they operate humanely, but must also carry insurance and have an up-to-date license to trap. While they do not deal with domestic animals, they are thoroughly trained to solve the unique problems created by nuisance wildlife.
