North Dakota's climate dictates wildlife activity. Cold winters drive animals like raccoons and squirrels to seek shelter in attics and crawl spaces. Spring and summer bring increased activity as animals reproduce and forage. Our process involves inspection, removal, and exclusion. We locate entry points, safely remove the animal, and then seal off access to prevent re-entry. The type of animal and complexity of the removal influence the work required.
Common questions
Will Animal Control remove a raccoon for free?
Our services are not provided free of charge. The cost of removal depends on factors like the animal species, location in your home, and the difficulty of the situation. We provide a detailed breakdown after our initial assessment.
What smells keep animals away?
While some scents like ammonia or peppermint oil are sometimes suggested, their effectiveness is temporary and often limited. For lasting deterrence in North Dakota homes, professional exclusion methods are more reliable than relying solely on odors.
Is there a fee for calling animal control?
There is no fee to call us for an initial assessment of your wildlife problem. Once we evaluate the situation in your Fargo home, we will discuss the necessary steps and associated costs before any work begins.
What is the 3-3-3 rule for animals?
The 3-3-3 rule typically refers to the adjustment period for a newly adopted pet. It suggests three days to decompress, three weeks to learn routines, and three months to feel at home. This does not directly apply to wild animal removal services.
Who to call to pick up stray cats?
For stray cats in North Dakota, we can assist with assessment and removal. The approach will depend on the cat's temperament and whether it appears to be feral or a lost pet. We will determine the safest and most effective method.
How do you handle raccoon removal in North Dakota?
Our raccoon removal process in North Dakota involves identifying their entry and nesting sites, typically in attics or wall voids. We then use humane trapping methods or one-way doors to allow them to exit. Sealing all potential access points prevents future intrusions.
