Why Eviction and Exclusion is the Best Form of Removal

You'll be surprised to learn that it's not just domesticated animals like cats and dogs that can be receptive to behavioral training – even wildlife can be discouraged from certain behaviors.

Poisoning and trapping wildlife within a home fails to deter animals from entering, often resulting in their demise within the premises, which is a very stinky business. Alternatively, animals may adapt to these methods, rendering these methods ineffective. In either case, the underlying issue of wildlife intrusion remains unresolved, necessitating more humane and effective measures for long-term deterrence. When entering is not possible, they learn to adapt to the wild where they belong.

Wildlife exclusion techniques promote adaptation to an environment so animals can make their home anywhere other than your house but stay in a territory that is familiar to them. This scenario benefits everyone!

Wildlife exclusion is also extremely beneficial for the home itself.

Exclusion Work is Safer for your family and pets

Your family and your pet’s safety and health come first. This doesn’t change even during pest removal.
Traps like snap traps can be hazardous to humans due to their potential to cause physical harm or injury. Improperly set traps may inadvertently catch humans. Additionally, many animals injure themselves when trapped and traps designed to capture or kill animals may pose risks if mishandled, leading to accidental activation or exposure to harmful mechanisms or substances. Some traps are designed to attract wildlife, increasing the likelihood of encounters between humans and potentially aggressive or diseased animals. The indiscriminate nature of traps and their mechanisms present various hazards to human and pet safety and well-being.

Poisoning Has Immense Implications

Poisoning is no better. These methods often have a ripple effect and can harm more than just the intended animal. There is no guarantee that only the targeted species will eat poisoned bait. Often it is our pets or other innocent animals that become the victims of unintentional poisoning. Not only that, but poisons have lingering effects on many other animals and wreak havoc on the environment. Many innocent and beneficial animals become secondary victims of the poisons by ingesting the animal first poisoned. This also causes the poison to be spread to areas not originally intended and can do long term damage to the environment.

Humane Removal is Healthier for Everyone

Wildlife exclusion is a form of wildlife control that does not use poisons, harmful chemicals, or dangerous traps. It removes the animal and fortifies the home against reentry. There are no harmful substances or unsafe traps involved. There is no chance of secondary or accidental poisoning, no chance of children finding traps, no concern of being harmed while trying to set traps.

There are no awful smells creeping from the attic or behind the walls, no passively accepting urine and feces accruing in your insulation. Traps and poisons are reactive solutions after animals have gone into your home; we stop it from happening at the source.

Humane Removal is Better for Your Home

Once we’ve ensured that the wildlife is out of your home with our safe and proven prevention methods, the next step of wildlife exclusion is fortifying your home. Trained wildlife technicians will inspect the home thoroughly and identify any entry points.

The openings are then properly sealed off and repaired so animals can’t get back in. This keeps your home protected from not only that animal, but also all other animals and the elements. People often underestimate how much damage a hole in a home can do.
