Wildlife Problems in Kenner, LA

Bordered by a lake to the north and a river to the south, Kenner, LA, has plenty of resources to attract wildlife pests. Along with the area's abundance of water, its historical buildings have numerous gaps and cracks that allow easy entry. As a result, homes and yards in this New Orleans suburb are a magnet for animals.

Squirrels on the Lawn

Gray squirrels, locally known as cat squirrels, are a nuisance on Louisiana properties. These pests will steal a variety of items from gardens, including seeds, bulbs, buds, and fruit. A gray squirrel likes to bury its food in several places around the lawn and may move into a nearby attic to raise its young.

Bats and Rabies

Kenner residents frequently find bat colonies in attics or backyard trees, culverts, and wells. When the animals live close to people, they create health concerns. Bats are one of Louisiana's main carriers of rabies, a life-threatening illness that can affect humans and pets. Since bites and scratches may transmit this virus, it's vital to avoid any contact with the pests.

Feeding Raccoons

Raccoons thrive in Kenner, where food is plentiful. Homeowners who leave pet food outdoors at night or fail to secure trashcan lids unwittingly provide these pests with regular meals. Well-fed raccoon populations grow quickly, increasing damage to yards and raising the risk for diseases like distemper and rabies.

More Louisiana Wildlife

Kenner's low elevation often leads to water and rodent problems in yards. Flooding drives rats and mice into houses, where they cause issues for residents. Indoors, a rat or mouse infestation can result in tainted pantry goods, chewed wires, and torn insulation.

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.

Critter Control was very easy to work with. They came right out and identified the problem of a raccoon in my attic. They told me the plan to take care of the problem and explain everything to me. Very friendly and professional.

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.
