Wildlife Removal & Exclusion
Wildlife removal is a short-term solution that involves trapping squirrels, raccoons, bats, or other animals that have invaded your home and removing them from the property. Wildlife exclusion is a long-term solution in which our experts animal-proof your home by sealing off potential entry points to your structure. Both services are important for protecting your home.
Our wildlife removal and exclusion service in Catskill, NY includes:
Bats are legally protected wildlife that play an important role in our ecosystem by controlling insect populations. However, bats may also roost inside homes and become a problem. Some homeowners worry about professional bat removal costs in the Hudson Valley, but these services are well worth investing in. Left unaddressed, bat infestations can cause severe property damage and create health hazards. Licensed bat removal specialists will humanely remove and exclude bats during the legal window of time when bats are not raising pups.
Squirrels and raccoons are some of the most common wildlife intruders in Catskill and surrounding communities. Many homeowners grow frustrated with their persistence and wonder how to stop squirrels from entering attics. Inside your attics, raccoons and squirrels can quickly cause extensive damage by gnawing, clawing, nesting, and spreading their waste. Animals may even create fire hazards by chewing through electrical wiring. Our wildlife removal experts in the Hudson Valley know the best methods to safely remove squirrels and raccoons, and to prevent them from returning.
Some wildlife species in the Hudson Valley are mostly a nuisance to yards and home exteriors. Skunks and groundhogs are burrowers that often inflict foundation damage as they try to dig out a sheltered den. If these animals begin living under your foundation or in your crawlspace, the damage will continue and you may begin to smell foul odors. This is especially likely with skunks, which will spray people and pets with an awful-smelling musk if they feel threatened. Our animal exclusion services include keeping groundhogs and skunks away from your foundation.
