Scratching in the attic? Animal sounds in the walls? Something nesting in your crawlspace?
Squirrels
Active during the day. Nest in attics and chew through wood and wiring. Most common in neighborhoods with mature trees.
Raccoons
Nocturnal and strong enough to tear through roofing materials. Can be aggressive if cornered or protecting young.
Bats
Protected species in Texas. Require specialized removal methods. Commonly roost in attics during warmer months.
Opossums
Nocturnal scavengers. Often found in crawlspaces, garages, or under decks. Generally non-aggressive but carry parasites
What You're Probably Dealing With...
- Scratching, thumping, or scurrying sounds, usually at night or early morning
- Droppings in the attic, garage, or crawlspace
- Chewed wood, insulation, or wiring
- Visible entry points near rooflines, vents, or soffits
- Strong odors from urine or nesting materials
- Sounds of baby animals (chirping, squealing)
If you’re hearing activity, wildlife has likely already established a nest. They don’t leave on their own once they’ve found shelter.

What to Know About Wildlife Removal...
Timing Matters
Many wildlife species have breeding seasons. Spring and early summer often mean baby animals in nests. Removal becomes more complicated when young are present. Contractors handle these situations according to local wildlife regulations.
Entry Points Need Sealing
Removing the animal is only part of the solution. If entry points aren’t sealed, new wildlife can move in. Common entry points include roof vents, soffit gaps, chimney caps, and foundation cracks.
Damage Assessment
Wildlife can contaminate insulation with droppings and urine. They chew through electrical wiring. Some situations require cleanup or repairs beyond just removing the animal. Contractors assess damage during inspection.
Legal Considerations
Some wildlife species are protected in Texas. Bats, for example, cannot be excluded during certain times of year. Contractors know local regulations and handle removal legally.
