Grand Haven Michigan is full of wildlife, and is also full of people which makes encounters more and more common. Some frequent questions we get are:

  • How much does wildlife removal cost?
  • Where do you set the traps?
  • What kind of bat for you use?
  • How do you keep from getting sprayed?
  • Have you ever been sprayed?
  • How do you remove skunk odor, tomato juice?
  • What do you do with the animal?

The cost of wildlife removal can truly range as there is no one set price that can meet the needs of hundreds of nuisance wildlife scenarios. After a phone consultation to determine your exact needs, we can better gauge a price for handing your issue. Trapping costs are typically are set price unless the area is unsafe or has limited access forcing us to use alternate or modified methods to trap the animals. Dead animal removal can also vary as animals tend to die in some very inaccessible places or will die right on your lawn. Size and disposal will also play a role. Animal proofing costs will vary depending on the location of the area if up high, if there are rocks, roots or bushes to deal with if on the ground and what the size of the area is that we are excluding to wildlife. As you can see, the cost of Grand Haven wildlife removal really is a tailored price to your exact needs.

With raccoons traps can be set on the roof, on the ground where they are gaining access and also inside the attic if need be. Each has its pros and cons. Setting up for squirrel removal or raccoon traps on the roof means it must be secured down by screwing to the roof. Of course, all holes are properly sealed after the trapping has been completed. Raccoon removal that is done inside an attic, can also bring its own set of issues. When a raccoon has been caught and needs to be brought down and through the home, it can potentially be messy. Raccoon urinate when they are afraid, they can usually have feces in the cage, can cut themselves on the steel, and loose hair and they rub against the cage. This means you can have blood, hair, urine and raccoon feces trailing into your home if the trap has not been contained tightly. For squirrels, attic traps work wonderful as they don’t really present all of the issue raccoons do. Traps set on the ground for raccoon where they are climbing up can be effective but they can also catch random animals that find the bait first. Skunk traps are set at the den site, which is most effective for quick capture.

Many are interested in the bait we use. For squirrels, peanut butter is usually the bait of choice as it has a strong odor and lasts quite a while. Raccoon will eat almost anything, so anything from cat food and sardines to marshmallows are used depending on the time of year and situation. Skunk are omnivores as well so cat food, sardines and carrots are all baits that are used to catch them.

We do get sprayed from time to time when providing Mice Removal and while there is no way to keep a skunk from spraying, patience and experience can calm a skunk’s nerves to keep it from spraying. When we are sprayed, baking soda, peroxide and dish soap is the only solution that breaks down all 3 molecules of skunk odor. Tomato juice is an internet tale.

Bat Removal Tips From Attics You Won’t Want To Miss

If you, like many, have bats in your attic, you may wish to have some bat removal tips from attics. There are many things to consider before you ever begin to remove the bats. Here are some things that you’ll want to do before you begin your bat removal project.

Find The Opening

Before you begin, you’ll want to find the openings that the bats are using to get into your attic. There are many potential openings and it’s important to realize that an opening the size of a quarter is plenty big for bats to enter into your attic.

Take a look around your perimeter and see if you can see potential openings. Be sure to check vents and under eaves as well.

Once you’ve found the openings you can plan on the right products to cover them. Consider a board, spray foam insulation, or some other means that you can use to seal up the openings when you get the bats out of your attic.

Relocation

In many areas, it’s against the law to kill the bats. In this case, you may wish to put up a bat house. A bat house is similar to a bird condo that you may see in some areas. It’s built like a birdhouse but it has several openings and they are at the bottom of the house. It also has perches for the bats to hang on in the bat house.

Another option is to trap the bats and relocate them to another region but that is much more challenging than simply having a bat house on hand for them to move into when they exit your home.

Plan Your Day

Choose a day that you have some helpers and wait for the sound of the bats leaving your attic before you begin. You’ll hear a whooshing of their wings a bit before dusk and that is when you will be ready to begin. Grab your helpers after the bats have flown off for hunting and get to work.

First, identify where they exit your attic. You’ll see an oily area on the wall or rafters where they squeeze in and out. This is their primary exit and entrance so you’ll want to seal this off immediately.

Check for any babies. If it’s late spring or sometimes early fall, you may find some babies. You’ll need to relocate these as well to ensure that a momma bat doesn’t try to return for them.

After you’ve done all of this have someone place boards over all of the potential entrances to your attic. You’ll want to work quickly as they will return after eating.

Once you’ve sealed all the openings, you’ll need to clean the attic area thoroughly. Make sure that you clean and sanitize the floors and walls and scrub off any oily areas where they were sneaking in and out of your home. Someone should also remove all of the bat guano and make sure to wear long sleeves and a mask as well as gloves to do so.

These bat removal tips from attics will help you to keep them out of your home.
