Signs You Have Wildlife in Your Home

The presence of wildlife in a home can be an unsettling experience. To detect whether or not animals are living in your home there are certain signs to look out for. The first indication of wildlife inhabiting in your home is visible damage, either inside or outside the property. Damage could include:

• torn insulation
• chewed wires
• other evidence of gnawing
• noise coming from within your walls, ceilings, and attic spaces
• Scratching sounds at night time
• Droppings – contact with droppings can cause serious illness if not done properly

Why do I need to keep animals out?

If you house a soft spot in your heart for small critters and wildlife, most of these animals might seem harmless. But, while they might not interfere with your everyday life while inhabiting your home or workplace, they can bring several dangers and issues associated with their presence.

For starters, wild animals like raccoons, skunks, beavers, and other rodents have the habit of chewing and gnawing on objects. This might cause them to damage your electrical wiring and plumbing systems.

Besides that, these animals enter through crevices and gaps in your construction or insulation. Their constant entry and exit will further largen these crevices and create heating and cooling issues on your property.

Moreover, most of these seemingly harmless animals bring parasites like ticks, mites, and fleas. These parasites work to transmit harmful diseases into your household, posing grave dangers for your family, especially children and the elderly.

Even if you have removed the wild animals infesting your home once, it is essential to go for wildlife management or exclusion services to reduce the chances of future infestations.

Our network of experts will visit your home and inspect it for potential spaces from which wild animals can enter. For example, there might be holes in your fascia board, open vents, insulation gaps, and structural crevices that might allow animals to enter easily.

Our professional team locates such entrance points and plugs them effectively so that you don’t face any wildlife invasions in the future.

Professional Wildlife Management and Exclusion Services

Starlings Wildlife Control Experts takes pride in being the go-to Ann Arbor wildlife removal service offering humane wildlife removal and management. Apart from removing wildlife from your residential and commercial buildings while minimizing the harm inflicted upon them, you can keep them from entering your property again.

Depending on the structure of your building and the wildlife problems you usually face, our team of experts will devise a proper plan to tackle the problem for good and prevent wild animals from entering your building.

Apart from sealing crevices and constructing obstacles, our team also works on strategically placing survival products at your home or office so wild animals cannot reach them and try to enter your property. Some standard wildlife management techniques implemented by our team of wildlife control experts include:

Placing Chimney Caps

Animals such as raccoons, skunks, and squirrels can quickly enter your home through chimneys. Using efficient chimney caps and screens can help you put your chimney vents to optimal use without the constant fear of animals crawling or nesting inside them.

Securing Vents

Rats, rodents, and other burrowing animals can enter your property through open vents. Or worse, they can get stuck in these vents while trying to enter and incur damages to your building structure.

That’s why, securing these vents properly can help prevent these animals from entering your property through them. Similarly, replacing flimsy vents with secure ones is also necessary in the case of roof vents.

Sealing Fascia Spaces

Sometimes, gaps between the roof and fascia can help animals like bats, snakes, and rats find their way into your Ann Arbor property. Sealing these gaps efficiently can discourage them from seeking shelter inside your home.

Pruning Trees

Believe it or not, tree branches and other vegetation might help wild animals get easy access to attic windows and doors. That’s why pruning protruding tree branches is essential to ensure these animals won’t climb back into your property.
