Missouri's climate, with its hot summers and cold winters, prompts wildlife to seek refuge in homes. Common issues arise from animals like raccoons and squirrels entering attics, chimneys, or crawl spaces in the state's mix of older farmhouses and suburban dwellings. Our service involves a thorough inspection to pinpoint animal presence and entry points. We then implement removal strategies, followed by exclusion measures to seal off access and prevent recurrence. The specific animal and the location within the structure influence the intervention required.
Common questions
Will Animal Control remove a raccoon for free?
Our services are fee-based, as professional wildlife removal requires specialized equipment and expertise. The cost is determined by the species of animal, the extent of the infestation, and the complexity of the removal process in your Missouri home.
What smells keep animals away?
Some strong odors like ammonia or predator urine are sometimes suggested, but they offer only temporary deterrence. For reliable, long-term solutions to keep wildlife out of your Columbia residence, professional exclusion methods are necessary.
Is there a fee for calling animal control?
There is no charge to contact us for an initial assessment of your wildlife situation. After we conduct a property inspection, we will provide a detailed explanation of the problem and the costs involved before any work commences.
What is the 3-3-3 rule for animals?
The 3-3-3 rule is generally applied to the settling-in period for newly adopted pets. It relates to their adjustment to a new environment, not the removal or management of wild animals from a property.
Who to call to pick up stray cats?
We can assist with the assessment and safe removal of stray cats in Missouri. Our team will evaluate the situation to determine the most humane and effective method for capture and relocation, considering the animal's behavior.
How do you approach wildlife removal in Missouri?
Our approach in Missouri involves a detailed inspection to identify animal entry points and nesting areas. We then employ humane trapping or exclusion devices to remove the wildlife. Finally, we seal all openings to ensure they cannot re-enter your home.
