Critter Control Wildlife Removal Process

Critter Control offers tailored wildlife removal solutions for the unique challenges faced by Round Rock residents. Our humane, species-specific approach ensures effective, long-term results for every type of nuisance animal.

Every wildlife problem in Round Rock is unique, from squirrels nesting in attics to raccoons raiding trash bins or bats roosting in eaves. Our proven 4-step wildlife removal process—inspection, humane removal, exclusion, repair, and sanitation—addresses these challenges with a focus on safety, effectiveness, and respect for local wildlife. By understanding the habits and habitats of each species, we deliver solutions that work for both homeowners and the environment.

 

STEP 1

Pest Control Inspection

During the inspection, we determine how many animals are present, where they’re located, and how they got inside. Based on what you have seen, heard, and smelled, we start the inspection where you have noticed signs of animal activity.

Evidence of animals inside your home includes nests, dens, feces, and animal tracks. We investigate the exterior of your home, looking for possible entry points and any evidence of animal damage, tracks, fur, animal waste, or rub marks.

STEP 2

Animal Trapping and Removal

We use several methods to humanely remove the animal from your home. Depending on the species, the number of animals, and the condition of your property, we develop a custom wildlife removal plan. Humane wildlife removal strategies include animal traps, one-way doors, and repellents.

STEP 3

Exclusion & Prevention

Once we guarantee all animals are gone, we implement exclusion techniques. Exclusion techniques provide a safe, long-term solution to nuisance wildlife in your home. We create barriers to prevent animals from getting to resources. We only apply exclusions once we are sure all animals are gone from your home.

STEP 4

Restoration and Remediation

Wildlife will not only damage your home but also threaten the security of you and your family. Exclusion techniques repair any damage the animal causes when getting into your home.

Animals can also spread diseases such as leptospirosis, salmonella, and hantavirus—all of which can pose serious risks to your health.

We apply sanitation agents to clean up feces and urine. Mammals can host pests like fleas, ticks, and mites. Ectoparasite treatments exterminate those pests, so you don’t become their next host.

Attic Restoration and Insulation Replacement

McKinney Rodent Control

The rats trying to live in your Austin home are the Norway rat or the roof rat, also known as the black rat. The house mouse is also a common unwanted resident that sneaks out at night to gather food and nesting materials. You may never see rodents on your property, but the signs they leave behind are evidence of their destructive behaviors.

Rats like to create burrows in your yard and will gnaw just about anything, including wires, siding, pipes, garden hoses, and any wood. Mice inside your home will chew holes in your cabinets to get to your pantry foods, baseboards, vents, screens, and anything they need to survive.

Mice can fit through a hole the size of a quarter, and rats can fit through a hole the size of a golf ball. Holes you may never notice are entry points for rodents that carry diseases. We can help eliminate your rodent problem. Because rats and mice multiply often, the sooner you call, the better.

Inspection

During a rodent inspection, we thoroughly inspect your attic and provide a complete exterior home inspection. The most common signs of rodent activity are gnaw marks, feces, rub marks, nesting material, runs in insulation material, and small entry points.

Rodent Trapping

A Critter Control rodent control specialist will create a strategic trapping plan for rodent extermination. Critter Control specialists may use snap traps and live traps to capture and remove mice and rats. Rodent trapping can usually takes between five to fourteen days.

Exclusions

Once we trap and remove rodents, we can start repairing the damaged areas. Exclusions focus on areas most commonly used as entry points.
These include areas around the foundation, utility access points, and areas along the roof like soffits.

Round Rock Raccoon Removal

Raccoons in Round Rock are nocturnal bandits that enter your home looking for shelter. They’re attracted to properties with available food sources. They can open garbage cans searching for food scraps, dig holes in your yard searching for insects, raid your garden for fruits and vegetables, and climb up your chimney and into your home when it’s time to sleep.

Once in your home, raccoons can shred drywall, chew through wires, scratch flooring, and use insulation to create a nest. If they decide to build a nest in your chimney or vents, you are at risk for fire hazards. When Critter Control is called for raccoon removal, we show up prepared.

Inspection

During the inspection, we determine the severity of the raccoon infestation. We look for physical evidence like footprints in or around the home, stains from raccoon feces and urine. On the exterior of the house, we look for damage like scratches on boards, broken vents and screens, ripped apart shingles, destroyed soffits, and every possible entry point.

Raccoon Trapping

Live trapping is one of the most efficient ways to get rid of a raccoon. Depending on the situation, a one-way door or excluder valve can be installed. An excluder valve works by allowing the raccoon to leave but blocks its reentry. The choice of device is largely dependent on the season and location of the raccoons on your property. Direct capture is not commonly used because raccoons are a rabies vector species. If we must trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the raccoons and we check traps frequently, based on state laws.

Exclusions

The best raccoon control is exclusions. We repair raccoon entry points and seal them to keep raccoons out. We can repair raccoon damage like broken screens on vents and chimneys.

Squirrel Removal Near You

Squirrels are notorious for invading attics and rooflines, especially in neighborhoods with mature trees. They chew through wiring and insulation, increasing fire risks and causing costly damage. Critter Control uses humane exclusion and trapping to remove squirrels and prevent re-entry.

For squirrel pest control, here’s what we do.

House with a magnifying glass icon

Inspection

Wildlife specialists look for signs such as chewing on, in, or around your home, small openings leading to the attic or the crawl space, droppings, and debris like nuts or nesting material. Beams, wires, pipes, and insulation may all show signs of damage from squirrels.

Squirrel Trapping

Live trapping or one-way doors are the most effective and humane ways to get rid of squirrels. One-way doors should never be used during birthing seasons (Spring & Fall), so our specialists will decide which is the best tool for the job. If we have to trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the squirrels and check those according to state laws.

Exclusions

We can restore your home or office by squirrel proofing all entry points after we have removed the offenders. We can also clean-up the nesting sites and remove any debris, food, feces and soiled insulation.

Bat Removal

Bats roost in attics, soffits, and wall voids, especially in older homes or buildings near water. Their guano can pose health risks and damage insulation.

Bats are protected species in Texas and play a vital role in controlling insects, but they can pose health risks when roosting in homes. Our bat removal process is fully humane and compliant with all regulations.

Critter Control uses exclusion devices to allow bats to exit safely, then seals entry points and cleans contaminated areas.

Exclusions

  • Seal all potential entry points and remove bat valve.
  • Bat guano clean up and sanitization.

Opossum Removal

Opossums frequently nest under decks, sheds, and crawlspaces, sometimes entering homes through pet doors or damaged vents. While generally non-aggressive, they can create messes and attract other pests. We humanely trap and release opossums and seal off access points.

Inspection

Opossums can be found inside attics and basements or outside under decks and sheds. Common signs include unique paw prints and feces. Opossums are docile and usually easy to spot.

Trapping and Removal

Opossums can be lured into cages for live capture. If it is maternity season, we follow all guidelines for removing mother and newborn opossums. We will seal entryways into the building to prevent opossums from reentering in the future. Opossums can be kept from getting under sheds and decks by installing fencing around the bottom edges and burying the fence underground.

Opossum Control

Broken screens on chimney and roof vents are replaced with sturdier materials, and we properly seal all entry points, including crawlspaces. We clean and deodorize areas of opossum activity. Exclusion may include eliminating sources that attract bugs, like nighttime lighting, stagnant water, and livestock poop.
