Getting rid of a pest animal isn’t as easy as it sounds. There are things that can go wrong and important things to consider. To help you see the complexities of wildlife removal here in Kansas, we’ve put together this helpful list of reasons it is best to have a professional take care of that wildlife problem.

  1. Attack of the squirrels. If you decide to take a flashlight and go up into your attic to investigate those squirrels you saw enter into the hole in your eaves, you might want to keep in mind that squirrels, like most wild animals, do not like to be cornered. A professional knows what conditions will cause an animal to become defensive.

  2. If you decide to put a board over the hole in your eaves, you should know that a trapped animal can get scared and do a lot of damage inside your home. Wildlife control specialists have methods and equipment to ensure no animals get trapped inside.

  3. When removing wildlife from your home, it is important to understand that animals with fur can bring parasites into your home. If you don’t want a mite, flea, tick or lice infestation, it is important to make sure you look for and target these pests as well. A professional will make sure that all areas of concern are investigated and treated properly if needed.

  4. The feces from animals can contain a variety of diseases. It is important to always have appropriate protective gear when entering into areas where wild animals have been living. This includes eye and mouth protection. Some diseases can become airborne and cause respiratory ailments and distress, such as histoplasmosis. A professional knows what gear to wear and how to disinfect contaminated areas.

  5. The most dangerous animal is an animal that seems friendly and comes right up to you. Wild animals are generally skittish of humans. If they show no fear of you, it is possible that they have been infected with the rabies virus. This can lead to an unexpected attack and transmission of the rabies virus to you. An experienced professional knows all the signs of a rabies-infected animal, and utilizes proper trapping techniques to maintain a safe distance at all times.

  6. Animals cause damage that may not readily be apparent. A wildlife control technician knows to look for chewed electrical wiring, damaged support beams, and other critical issues that can come from a wildlife infestation.

  7. You’ve heard of bed bugs, but how about bat bugs. When bats infest your attic spaces, they can bring these blood-eating pests into your home, creating an infestation similar to bed bugs. Your Schendel Wildlife specialist will make sure this does not happen.

Getting rid of a wild animal on your own can seem like a good idea, but it is a much better idea to call Schendel. With wildlife removal services from Schendel Pest Services, you don’t have to wonder if you missed anything. Our team has the training and experience to make sure it’s done right.
