Fall is the time of year that squirrel control in Roanoke is on the rise. Squirrels seek the warmth of attics and crawlspaces to spend the winter months. Once inside the squirrels begin to build a nest and create a comfy environment. Unfortunately that is not all they do. They will also chew wiring, structure and tear the screen out of the attic vents.
The longer the squirrels are in the attic, the more damage occurs. It is very important to address this problem as soon as it arises to prevent major damage and expensive repairs from occurring.
Trapping the squirrels is the most effective way to resolve this problem. High tech gadgets such as electronic or ultrasonic devices claim to rid your attic of squirrels or raccoons, but don’t waste your hard earned money on them. They don’t work!
Your hard earned dollars are better spent by hiring a trained Nuisance Wildlife Management Professional to inspect the home, remove any unwanted visitors and repair any damage caused by wildlife.
BEFORE YOU HIRE ANY WILDLIFE CONTROL COMPANY, ASK FOR THE FOLLOWING;
Insurance – specifically insurance that covers working in the nuisance wildlife management field. A general liability policy is not enough to protect you. It must be specific to wildlife control.
Licenses – a nuisance wildlife license is required in many states as is a business license. Workers compensation is required if employees are working on your property. Construction licenses may be required for the repair of your home as well.
References – check with the Better Business Bureau and ask for references of past clients.
Once you have researched the company, call and set up an appointment. The sooner you resolve the wildlife problem, the less damage should occur. You local wildlife expert is A All Animal Control.
