Wildlife in Plano

Plano, TX, grew from prairie land to become one of the larger suburbs of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Its location in North Central Texas means hot summers, cool winters, and rains in the spring. Plano is particularly attractive to wildlife that prefer warmer temperatures.

Snakes

Seven venomous snake species are found in and around Plano, including the notorious copperhead. Most active in warmer months, copperheads can be found near trees, rocks, or water. Snake bites usually occur because the reptile has been accidentally handled or stepped on.

Raccoons

Raccoons will happily steal food from trashcans, gardens, bird feeders, and ponds. They will also poach living spaces, making denning sites under porches, throughout attics, and within chimneys.

Armadillos

Whether they are foraging for grubs or making burrows, an armadillo loves to dig. This behavior causes expensive damage to lawns, frequently putting the pests in conflict with property owners. Armadillos are also the only species other than humans capable of carrying and transmitting leprosy.

Ducks

Plano's abundant parks create a perfect home for ducks. However, hand-feeding can cause a duck to lose its instinctive fear of people. This familiarity can lead to yards filled with the pests and their droppings. Excessive waste pollutes groundwater and can spread disease.

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.

Critter Control performed a very thorough examination of our house and identified animal entry points and the type of critters that frequent our home. They fully explained the remediation plan for our home including scheduled follow up visits. We feel comfortable that this company will eliminate our critter problem once and for all.
