The Noises In Your Attic Can Be Stopped By Decatur Wildlife Removal Services

By Dave L. Weglin


Before the unwanted pests invade your home, there are things that can be done to prevent them from getting in. The smallest opening will allow them access to the attic for one thing. However, if they are already inside, there are professional Decatur wildlife removal services who can get the out. They can also prevent them from getting back in.

One major nuisance is the raccoon. Outdoors they will look for an open garbage can or other food source. Inside they will damage surroundings and property stored there. They have sharp claws that can tear screens and ruin insulation.

These animals are one of four primary carriers of the rabies virus. The other three are skunks, bats and the fox. A bite from an infected animal can transfer the disease to a human. The correct way to get them out of your house is something the amateur should not attempt. Poison should not be used inside the house. If one were to die inside, it would cause a noxious odor.

The raccoons, squirrels and bats all view an attic as a great place to live. Once they have settled in, they will leave to find food and water. They will be able to easily re-enter through the same openings. Their droppings and urine collect and create a distinctly unpleasant smell. They carry diseases and parasites that are hazardous to humans.

The bat attacks the mosquito population and thus, while outdoors is beneficial to humans. But inside, this flying mammal will cause major destruction to the insulation and anything else in the attic. They enter through a small hole. Before you know it, they have contaminated everything they come in contact with.

The gray squirrel has the same potential for destroying property. It enters the attic by squeezing through tiny holes in the structure. It chews everything, including wood, with strong front teeth. It too will consider your attic a good habitat, especially during the cold winter months. The experts cannot seal off the openings until they are certain all the young have left.

An exit tunnel is prepared for the critters to leave the attic. This tunnel is a one-way only exit and they cannot re-enter through it. When all have left, the professionals will seal off the holes to keep them out in the future. After that, they will undertake the job of cleaning and disinfecting the entire attic.
