Squirrels are notorious for entering attics and crawlspaces through small roof gaps or vents. Once inside, they chew on wiring and insulation, increasing fire risks and causing costly damage. Critter Control uses humane exclusion devices and repairs entry points to keep squirrels out for good.

Raccoons are clever and strong, often overturning trash cans, nesting in chimneys, or tearing through soffits and vents. Indoors, they can shred insulation and drywall, creating health hazards. Our team safely traps and relocates raccoons, then repairs and secures your home.

Norway and roof rats, plus house mice, invade homes unseen, leaving gnawed wires, siding, cabinets and yard burrows as evidence. Squeezing through small gaps, these disease-carrying rodents breed rapidly. Learn about managing rats and mice.

Opossum in Attic

Opossums frequently nest under decks, sheds, or in crawlspaces. While generally not aggressive, they can create messes and attract other pests. We humanely trap and relocate opossums, then block off access points to prevent future problems.

 

Bat Removal

Bats are common in Longmont, especially near water sources like the St. Vrain Creek. They roost in attics, chimneys, and wall voids, entering through tiny gaps. Critter Control uses exclusion devices to let bats out safely and seals entry points, always following Colorado’s bat protection laws.

 

Skunk Control

Skunks are drawn to yards and gardens, especially in spring and fall. Their digging can damage lawns, and their spray is a notorious nuisance. We use humane trapping and exclusion to remove skunks and prevent re-entry.

STEP 1

Inspection & Identification

Our experts conduct a thorough inspection of your Longmont property, identifying the species involved, entry points, and nesting sites. We pay special attention to common access areas like attics, crawlspaces, and rooflines, which are especially vulnerable during Colorado’s cold winters and spring thaw.

STEP 3

Animal Control & Exclusions

After removal, we seal all entry points with chew-resistant materials, such as metal flashing or hardware cloth, to prevent future infestations. This is especially important in Longmont, where wildlife is active year-round.

STEP 4

Remediation & Repairs

We clean and sanitize contaminated areas, removing animal waste and damaged materials to protect your health and restore your home to its original condition.
