Pennsylvania raccoons adapt well to most environments, including cities like Scranton-Wilkes Barre. A nuisance raccoon can cause extensive damages that lead to costly repairs. Raccoons are nocturnal so homeowners usually hear noises at night. The most effective removal technique is trapping a raccoon. After the raccoon has been trapped and removed, we repair the damage and install exclusions to prevent future raccoon problems.

Squirrels in Scranton thrive by raiding birdfeeders, stealing garden crops, and taking advantage of opportunities to get grains, nuts, seeds, fruits, bird eggs, flowers, and bark. At Critter Control, we employ one-way valves or squrirel traps. Proper exclusion is vital after technicians remove nuisance squirrels.

Long-term mouse control means addressing the reasons behind the rodent infestation. Trapping and exclusion are two majors steps of this process. Roof returns, loose-fitting screens, soffit openings, and holes for pipe access all provide chances for rats to enter your home or attic. At Critter Control , we identify entry points and repair them with sealants, wire mesh, or other barriers to keep the mice out.

The most common Pennsylvania bats include the little brown, big brown, and Northern long-eared bat. f bats are roosting in your attic, you have a good source of insects nearby. You will likely know bats are roosting by stains from their guano that often runs down walls, staining them. Outside of mating and maternity seasons, we use one-way cones that allow bats to fly out of their roost but prevent them from flying back inside. If a bat is stuck, we have the right equipment to remove it safely.

The idea of controlling skunks is overwhelming to most people. The thought of getting sprayed alone is enough to call a skunk expert for skunk control services. The truth is that it takes an expert with years of experience who knows how to control skunks to limit the amount of damage these animals can do.
