The black-masked pests are known for knocking over garbage cans and raiding pet food bowls for meals. Raccoons also create den sites beneath decks or inside uncapped chimneys. A raccoon may also find its way into the attic to rest during the day and raise its young. Raccoons will remove shingles and tear through walls to get indoors. Raccoons also can carry rabies, so it’s important that you never attempt to handle a raccoon. Inspection During the inspection, we determine the severity of the raccoon infestation. We look for physical evidence like footprints in or around the home, stains from raccoon feces and urine. On the exterior of the house, we look for damage like scratches on boards, broken vents and screens, ripped apart shingles, destroyed soffits, and every possible entry point. Raccoon Trapping Live trapping is one of the most efficient ways to get rid of a raccoon. Depending on the situation, a one-way door or excluder valve can be installed. An excluder valve works by allowing the raccoon to leave but blocks its reentry. The choice of device is largely dependent on the season and location of the raccoons on your property. Direct capture is not commonly used because raccoons are a rabies vector species. If we must trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the raccoons and we check traps frequently, based on state laws. Repairs We provide a wide range of repair and restoration services. We can repair raccoon damage like broken screens on vents and chimneys and broken boards on decks and porches. It is essential to apply cleaning agents and ectoparasite treatments on areas inhabited by raccoons. Squirrel Removal Tree squirrels are notorious for entering attics with their exceptional climbing ability. They use overgrown branches or utility lines to find access to homes, where they hide food caches as winter approaches. To detect the presence of a tree squirrel, homeowners can listen for scratching and scurrying noises coming from the attic or walls during the afternoon. Inspection Wildlife specialists look for signs such as chewing on, in, or around your home, small openings leading to the attic or the crawl space, droppings, and debris like nuts or nesting material. Beams, wires, pipes, and insulation may all show signs of damage from squirrels. Squirrel Trapping Live trapping or one-way doors are the most effective and humane ways to get rid of squirrels. One-way doors should never be used during birthing seasons (Spring & Fall), so our specialists will decide which is the best tool for the job. If we have to trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the squirrels and check those according to state laws. Repairs We can restore your home or office by squirrel proofing all entry points after we have removed the offenders. We can also clean-up the nesting sites and remove any debris, food, feces and soiled insulation. Bat Removal Of the 14 species of bats in the state, the big and little brown bat have adapted to the urban environment of Cleveland. These species roost inside warehouses and homes in the crevices of attics, walls, and between rafters and roofing. If bats aren’t visible during the day, then listen for scratching and squeaking sounds at dusk when the pests are most active. Bats in Cleveland are problematic, in part, because of the diseases they carry. Piles of waste beneath their roosts create structural hazards and risk of fungal infection. Bat saliva can transmit rabies, leptospirosis, and a host of other illnesses to humans. Inspection We perform a full interior and exterior inspection and search for signs such as rub marks, guano, a strong scent of ammonia, and small openings. The most common sign is the accumulation of guano (feces). Bat Removal The most effective and humane way to remove bats is by utilizing a bat valve in conjunction with a full home exclusion. A bat valve allows for bats to exit your home but not re-enter. We follow all local ordinances for humane bat removal. We will never abandon flightless pups in...
