Control<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Squirrels usually enter homes as the evening temperatures rise or drop to look to nest. Homeowners can often detect a squirrel issue due to their playful nature and early rising.\u00a0 You can most often hear them scurrying around in the attic or coming and going at dawn.<\/p>\n<p>Squirrels can do considerable damage to exterior trim and siding of a home as they widen a current hole or make a new hole in which to enter. Once in the home they can and will gnaw on electrical wiring possibly causing a short or a fire. Squirrels can also be carriers of fleas and other unwanted organisms that will infest the structure after they gain entry.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Flying Squirrel Control<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The flying squirrels don\u2019t really fly, but glide into attics from trees or nearby structures.\u00a0 In \u201cflying,\u201d the squirrels leap spread-eagled and use their outstretched gliding membranes for gliding and their bushy tails for guidance. And they are known to glides up to 60 meters (almost 200 feet).<\/p>\n<p>Flying squirrels can enter the attics through the eaves and soffits through small cracks. They can also easily enter the space between the roof top and fascia board, chewing the area for a wider entry point.<\/p>\n<h4>Bat Control<\/h4>\n<p>Bats are nocturnal, flying animals that are known for living in dark, secluded areas.\u00a0 Your attic make for a perfect place for bats to set up residence.\u00a0 Bats are small mammals and can enter your home through very small openings or cracks.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bats are &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/georgiawildlife.com\/ExcludingBatsFromYourHouse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">protected<\/a>&#8221; in Georgia during the maternity season of April 1st through July 31st.\u00a0 If you think you have a bat issue, it is imperative that you contact a professional to learn about your option for removal.<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->                    <\/div><!-- .tb-column-inner -->\n                            <\/div><!-- .module_column -->\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col4-2 tb_f66347a last\">\n                                                        <div class=\"tb-column-inner tf_box tf_w\">\n                        <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_wugu256  repeat \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n    <h4><strong>Rat Control<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Rats pose many threats to you, your family and your home.\u00a0 They can cause allergies, spread disease and also bring fleas, mites, ticks and lice into your home. Rats are known for the damage they cause by chewing on and through materials, urinating on food, and eating stored foods.<\/p>\n<p>Rats can enter structures through small openings\u2014as small as the size of a quarter. They are excellent climbers and often enter a home in the fall when outside food sources become scarce. They can also be found under, in and around structures, such as in fields or wood piles.<\/p>\n<h4>Raccoon &amp; Opossum\u00a0Control<\/h4>\n<p>Both raccoons and opossums are nocturnal and most commonly look for food at night. Raccoon and opossums are scavengers, often seem rummaging through the trash.\u00a0 They nest in attics or crawl spaces of homes and other structures.<\/p>\n<p>Raccoons can carry rabies and roundworm. The roundworm can be contracted by someone not wearing breathing protection while cleaning the bathroom area of raccoons. Fleas and other parasites may be associated with raccoons nesting in the attic or crawlspace.

Homeowners can often detect a squirrel issue due to their playful nature and early rising.\u00a0 You can most often hear them scurrying around in the attic or coming and going at dawn.<\/p> <p>Squirrels can do considerable damage to exterior trim and siding of a home as they widen a current hole or make a new hole in which to enter. Once in the home they can and will gnaw on electrical wiring possibly causing a short or a fire. Squirrels can also be carriers of fleas and other unwanted organisms that will infest the structure after they gain entry.<\/p> <h4><strong>Flying Squirrel Control<\/strong><\/h4> <p>The flying squirrels don\u2019t really fly, but glide into attics from trees or nearby structures.\u00a0 In \u201cflying,\u201d the squirrels leap spread-eagled and use their outstretched gliding membranes for gliding and their bushy tails for guidance. And they are known to glides up to 60 meters (almost 200 feet).<\/p> <p>Flying squirrels can enter the attics through the eaves and soffits through small cracks. They can also easily enter the space between the roof top and fascia board, chewing the area for a wider entry point.<\/p> <h4>Bat Control<\/h4> <p>Bats are nocturnal, flying animals that are known for living in dark, secluded areas.\u00a0 Your attic make for a perfect place for bats to set up residence.\u00a0 Bats are small mammals and can enter your home through very small openings or cracks.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p> <p>Bats are \"<a href=\"https:\/\/georgiawildlife.com\/ExcludingBatsFromYourHouse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">protected<\/a>\" in Georgia during the maternity season of April 1st through July 31st.\u00a0 If you think you have a bat issue, it is imperative that you contact a professional to learn about your option for removal.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Rat Control<\/strong><\/h4> <p>Rats pose many threats to you, your family and your home.\u00a0 They can cause allergies, spread disease and also bring fleas, mites, ticks and lice into your home. Rats are known for the damage they cause by chewing on and through materials, urinating on food, and eating stored foods.<\/p> <p>Rats can enter structures through small openings\u2014as small as the size of a quarter. They are excellent climbers and often enter a home in the fall when outside food sources become scarce. They can also be found under, in and around structures, such as in fields or wood piles.<\/p> <h4>Raccoon &amp; Opossum\u00a0Control<\/h4> <p>Both raccoons and opossums are nocturnal and most commonly look for food at night. Raccoon and opossums are scavengers, often seem rummaging through the trash.\u00a0 They nest in attics or crawl spaces of homes and other structures.<\/p> <p>Raccoons can carry rabies and roundworm. The roundworm can be contracted by someone not wearing breathing protection while cleaning the bathroom area of raccoons. Fleas and other parasites may be associated with raccoons nesting in the attic or crawlspace.
