Wildlife removal services are critical for homeowners, animal lovers, and those who work with animals. Wildlife can cause property damage and be a nuisance for the homeowner if not dealt with properly. However, if you have an animal infestation in your home or on your property, it is best to hire a professional wildlife removal company to help remove them. Mice and rats are some of the most common animals found in homes, but many other types can also cause trouble, such as squirrels, raccoons, bats, and even snakes. All these animals have in common: they want to make themselves comfortable in your home or on your property so they can live there without worrying about being eaten by predators while looking for food. Keep reading to learn what signs to look for before calling wildlife removal services.
Top signs to look for before calling wildlife removal services
1. Infestation in your home or business
If you think your home or business is infested with wildlife, there are a few signs to look for. First, look for signs of damage to the property. If animals like rats and mice have gotten into the building and made it their home, they may be chewing through wires or creating holes in walls. They can also leave behind droppings and urine stains as evidence of their presence in your home. If you find evidence of an infestation but need help determining what kind of animal it came from, contact a professional pest control company such as Northern Colorado Pest & Wildlife Control to get to the root of your problem.
2. You’ve been bitten or attacked by a wild animal
If you have been bitten or attacked by a wild animal, you must seek medical attention immediately. You may need rabies shots and antibiotics to prevent infection of the wound. The bite area should be disinfected with soap and water before bandaging it. Keep your arm above the heart until you see a doctor so that blood can flow back into the limb more easily. You will also want to watch for signs of infection, such as redness around the wound site or swelling that spreads rapidly up your arm. After treating your wound, call wildlife removal services ASAP to relocate the animal to prevent any injury safely.
3. You have uninvited guests in your attic, basement, or shed
You might have an attic, basement, or shed used by wildlife. These areas are great for living in because they provide shelter and food sources in one location. It’s easy for them to find food during the winter when it is cold outside and hard for them to find food during the summer when it is hot outside. If you see signs of wildlife living in your home, like droppings or tracks on the ground, there is a good chance they also live in one of these areas. We recommend hiring professional wildlife removal services immediately because they can help eliminate unwanted guests before they cause more damage than necessary.
While there are plenty of other signs that it is time to call in wildlife removal services, pick up the phone when in doubt. Still searching for the right pest control company to work with? We hope you will consider working with Northern Colorado Pest & Wildlife Control.

“Northern Colorado Pest and Wildlife Control took care of a mouse problem at my Mom’s house in Greeley, and they were excellent. They immediately returned my initial phone call and dispatched Aaron to my mom’s house. He assessed the problem and set traps right away. Two more follow-up visits, and it seems no more mice! And if we have more, they said they’d return and do more. Can’t recommend this team highly enough.”
