Critter Control in Watkinsville

Squirrels are ever-present throughout the North Georgia. Some evidence suggests the squirrel population is increasing! They are most active in early spring when females are looking for a safe place to give birth, but they can be a problem inside your house at any time of year.

Squirrels in Watkinsville make a lot of noise early in the morning as they leave nests in your attic looking for food. Inside attics they gnaw wiring, shred insulation, and repurpose stored keepsakes for bedding—risking fires and costly repairs.

Raccoons are well adapted to live in Watkinsville, especially near water, green belts, and wooded areas. They can be a problem at any time of year, but their activity ramps up in spring as they search for food, mates, and nesting sites after winter.

Raccoons across Watkinsville overturn trash cans, raid gardens, and travel miles between food stashes. Indoors, they shred drywall, chew wiring, and nest in insulation, chimneys, or vents—creating fire hazards and costly repairs.

Bat infestations are common in Wakinsville in late spring when bats seek out attics and chimneys for roosting and giving birth. Critter Control offers humane bat removal services, using exclusion devices that allow bats to exit safely while preventing re-entry. Their team is experienced in handling these protected species and ensures compliance with all wildlife regulations.

Rats and mice are some of the most destructive pests to have in your home. Both types of rodents stay near their nests. If you’ve seen evidence like droppings of rats or mice in your house, you likely have a nest in the walls, above the ceiling, or inside the attic.

No one wants to share their attics with opossums for safety, health, and property damage reasons. Opossums are excellent climbers. Raising their joeys in a warm, safe place is the most likely reason an opossum has chosen an attic. Opossums in the attic damage insulation, contaminate the attic, and spread diseases to you and your family. contaminate

Snakes are a unique challenge in Georgia. Although rare, they enter homes through small gaps in doors, windows, or foundations. Their presence is frequently linked to rodent infestations, as snakes follow their prey indoors. Critter Control’s snake management services include thorough inspections, humane removal, and exclusion repairs to keep both snakes and their food sources out of your home.

Bird infestations can create significant hazards in homes and businesses. Birds often nest in vents, chimneys, and eaves, leading to blocked ducts, water damage, and fire risks. Their droppings can stain surfaces and create slippery walkways, while some species become aggressive when nesting. Critter Control offers effective bird management solutions, including exclusion devices and cleanup services.
