What's Your Name?

Birds & Bats

Birds and bats may not carry the same health risks as rodents, but they can still disrupt your life and cause property damage. Birds are known to build nests in the crevices of your home, and bats can easily break into attics, basements, and sheds.

Dead Animals

When an animal dies, its body swiftly attracts bacteria, parasites, mold, and disease–and that’s not to mention the awful odor it gives off. Dead animal removal can be both tricky and unpleasant, so don’t hesitate to call a professional for assistance.

Opossums

As both climbers and burrowers, opossums pose a threat to your attic, basement, and yard. Although they aren’t dangerous, they can harass pets and get into your food and garbage.

Raccoons

Raccoons are known for eating garbage and breaking into garages and attics, but they also carry rabies and other harmful diseases. Since they are large and strong animals, raccoon removal can be dangerous and should be done by a professional.

Rats

Rats are some of the smartest and resourceful pests out there. They can fit through spaces much smaller than their bodies and even identify poisons set out for them. Despite the annoyance these critters create, rat removal and a home free of rat infestation are possible.

Skunks

The biggest concern most people have with skunks in their home is the strong, long lasting odor from their spray. Leaving skunks in the home can attract other animals or cause you thousands of dollars in property damage.

Ringtails

Ringtails are the newest addition to the Austin nuisance wildlife family and migrated from west to east through Texas. They are omnivores and their population is increasing since they are too crafty to be taken prey by their natural predators such as coyotes, bobcats and fox. Like the raccoon, ringtails have the equivalent of a ball bearing in their wrist that allows their wrist to rotate 190 degrees without moving their forearm, making them very agile climbers. They can enter a hole about the size of a golf ball.

Squirrels

Even though squirrels are entertaining creatures, they can still cause a lot of property damage when they make nests, have babies, and fill your home with rodents. They most commonly nest in attics during the winter until it’s warm enough for them to live outdoors again.
