Rodents and Wildlife Control

Wasp and Honey Bee Nest: What Homeowners Need To Know

Protecting Your Home Against Nuisance Wildlife The change of seasons in many areas brings with it cooler temperatures, increased precipitation, rodents and nuisance wildlife seeking refuge. They can end up finding shelter in your home if there are access points that make it easy for them to find their way in. If sharing your home with various wild animals is not appealing to you, then now is the time to begin taking steps to ensure that the only ones staying warm and dry in your home this winter is your family. Rodents and other unwanted pests in your home are more than just annoying. They can wreak havoc, damaging your property and even posing significant health risks. Rodents like rats and squirrels can gnaw through wires which can cause fires, destroying insulation. They can also carry diseases like hantavirus and salmonella. Rodents that invade your home can also introduce infestations into your homes such as mites, fleas, or ticks, not to mention the rodent droppings and urine stains and the smells associated with them both. A good plan of action to protect your home involves securing it inside and out. Take these steps to keep your home free of unwanted pests. Keep areas that are normally damp, like crawl spaces, attics, and basements, dry and well ventilated. Many types of pests are drawn to moist environments. Keep your gutters clean, well maintained, and working properly. Find all cracks and crevices both inside and outside of your home. Seal them with caulk so pests can’t get through. Look closely at areas where pipes enter your home and seal even the tiniest of spaces. Mice are great jumpers and can squeeze through impossibly tiny openings. They can fit through a dime-sized hole so seal them all. Place screens over chimney openings, attic vents, and other areas in your home that provide open access to the outdoors.

It seems no area is immune. However, some cities, like these three, are taking creative approaches to manage their rodent and wildlife problems. Ellensburg, WA Beavers are quite troublesome to landowners in this town and the surrounding areas. They are usually trapped or killed in an effort by property owners to protect their land. However, a recent article in the Miami Herald tells a different story. The Mid-Columbia Fisheries Enhancement Group has started a project in Washington State as well as other areas in the west that actually uses beavers to help restore rivers. They are channeling the power that many consider destructive and directing it to something that is beneficial. Tampa Bay, FL Feral cats are a problem in many areas. As laws are getting tougher on animals being allowed to run free and prohibiting people from feeding wild animals, nothing is being done to reduce the feral cat population – until now. Programs are popping up throughout the nation, including this one in Tampa Bay. According to an article in the Tampa Bay Times, animal welfare groups and county commissioners are working together to find a better way to control the feral cat communities in the area. What is being proposed is a program that would trap the cats, sterilize them so they cannot reproduce, vaccinate them, and return them to their colony. It is a humane way of culling the population. Atlantic City, NJ Canadian geese are a real problem in several counties in New Jersey. They have become a real nuisance; the local schools, golf clubs, shopping centers, and other areas are overrun with the unwelcome critters. An article in Press of Atlantic City, though, shows how one company is humanely ridding
