Wildlife Problems in Fernandina Beach, FL

Visitors and residents come to Fernandina Beach, FL, for its oceanfront vistas. Unfortunately, the same features that make the city attractive to people also appeal to nuisance animals. Wildlife conflicts typically occur when pests discover easy sources of food and shelter near homes.

Bat Issues

Outside, bats are beneficial because they eat insects like mosquitoes. When they enter a house, problems mount quickly. Foul-smelling guano builds up under bat roosts, and the animals can carry several diseases. Florida law prohibits excluding bats during some parts of the year, so residents should be careful when dealing with infestations.

Defensive Raccoons

Raccoons in Fernandina Beach are more likely to approach people when the pests frequent yards and homes. This is why it's vital not to feed them or let an infestation go unchecked. Even a raccoon used to humans will bite or scratch in self-defense. These animals are rabies carriers in Florida, so a run-in with a raccoon could transmit this disease.

Squirrel Damage

Squirrels can climb up anything from a tree to a trellis to reach Fernandina Beach rooftops. From there, they can enter through vents or other openings to access the attic. If a squirrel feels trapped inside, it may tear at walls, insulation, and wiring while trying to find a way out.

Other Common Pest Issues

Since they like to live along coastlines and in palm trees, rats and mice thrive in Fernandina Beach. However, their never-ending search for meals and nesting spots sometimes brings them into homes. A rat or mouse infestation can contaminate living spaces and draw additional pests inside.

Tom came out and removed a family of racoons from an attic in one of our rental properties. He was timely, communicated promptly and also had solutions to present. I'd recommend Critter Control.

They did what they said they would do. Price was fair and their service was outstanding. I couldn’t have been happier with the technicians they sent out or the people I spoke to over the phone. Quality people all around and a company that stands behind their word.

They have saved me from both raccoons and squirrels. Very convenient and easy to work with. I hope I don't have to call them again (because I hope I never have another wild animal problem again). However, if I do, I can rest easy knowing where to find professionals who know their stuff.
