Signs You Have Wildlife in Your Home

Different animals can leave different clues behind, but knowing what to look for can help you understand what's happening in your home. Common signs of wildlife activity include:

​

  • Unusual noises like loud footsteps, bumping or scratching.

  • Musky smells and droppings that are larger than typical insect waste.

  • Physical damage, such as frayed wires, damaged vents and other property damage.

  • Pet reactions such as staring intently, barking or pawing at specific walls.

​

Humane Wildlife Removal and Exclusion Services

At Dana Pest Control, we approach wildlife removal with compassion and respect for both the animals and the environment. Our goal is to remove the animal from your home while minimizing distress.

We identify signs of wildlife activity, determine what animal you're dealing with and locate potential entry points. This comprehensive approach ensures that we block entry points and address the underlying reasons why wildlife is drawn to your home, leading to effective and lasting prevention.

​

Once we understand the situation, we'll recommend an appropriate removal method. Our team uses humane removal methods like one-way doors, which allow animals to leave a property but not reenter, and AI-powered humane traps for effective capture. For burrowing animals, we use modern tools that prevent damage to your property's foundation and landscaping.

​

After removal, we focus on comprehensive "exclusion work," which means sealing all potential entry points to prevent any future intrusions and ensure the home remains free of wildlife. We also use various humane repellents, including industry-leading products and natural solutions like predator urine, to deter wildlife. These repellents, when combined with exclusion methods, provide comprehensive control and keep your property secure.
