Missouri is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Independence wildlife control services if you want to solve a critter problem legally and correctly. For example, we specialize in animals in the attic, which have broken into the house and almost always have a nest of baby animals. It is necessary to perform correct preventative repairs to keep pest animals a out of your house for good. We perform full building inspection, do the the repairs and we also offer attic decontamination if necessary. Rats and mice love to live in attics, and can chew wires or leave droppings. Some Independence animals frequently enter homes, and correct removal is not a simple task.
DOG or CAT: If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local
Jackson County Animal Control
for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, vaccinations, licenses,
pet adoption, lost pets, and more. If you have a wildlife problem, you can try calling the Jackson County animal control, and see what they have to
say, but they will certainly not help you with a complex wildlife problem such as critters in your attic. They are a free government agency that
helps with dog and cat issues only.

Independence Wildlife Tip:
Heavy scratching noise coming from the crawlspace what is it - Don't panic if you hear a heavy scratching noise coming from the crawlspace. Sounds in the bottom of a home will be amplified especially if they are coming from a crawlspace. Think of your crawlspace like a large cave and then recall how sounds echo in a cave. The animal living in there probably isn't a bear; more likely than not it's a skunk. Thankfully, in the scheme of pest animals, skunks are not terribly difficult to get rid of, and they don't have a good homing ability. Relocating the animal at least five miles away should prevent it from coming back. To get rid of the animal, you'll need to locate where its entry to the crawlspace is. Once you've found that location and blocked off any others, you can use some temporary fencing to guide the skunk out of the crawlspace and into a set cage trap. This will work for most other animals that live in a crawlspace, too. Rats will need to be trapped with large snap traps, but your larger mammals will do just fine in a cage trap from the garden center.
Independence, MO Animal Control News Clip:
Independence residents air worries over rat & mouse animal capture
INDEPENDENCE - A public organized hearing on the proposed animal removal trap raccoon and opossum animal capture at Independence Missouri wildlife management area turned into a lively discussion on land use, the value of wildlife trapping and safety. Sixty people gathered Thursday evening in the Independence Village Community Center to hear wildlife biologist Dick The Independence exterminating company and wildlife management area Supt. Joe The Independence exterminators explain why they have requested that a limited amount of both animal removal trap and cage trap pest control companies have access to the wildlife management area beginning in mid November 2007 with the traditional, statewide nine-day animal removal trap rodent or reptile animal capture.
The Independence exterminating company said the animal capture is necessary to reduce squirrel and skunk amounts in the wildlife management area to levels that will allow native plants to survive. Reducing rat & mouse amounts to goals set in law also would make it more difficult for disease to infect the local group of animals. Some neighbors, like Helen The Independence pest control specialist, said the wildlife management area is too narrow, with too many homes crowding along the edge, for animal removal trap wildlife trapping to be safe. She also sounded a common concern of the neighbors - that six weeks of wildlife trapping in the wildlife management area is overkill. The local Independence SPCA could not be reached for comment.
"I agree we have too many raccoon and opossum in the Independence area," The Independence pest control specialist said, "but must we have a four- or five-week season to get rid of them? Can't we do it in three or four days?" Others, like Mary The Independence exterminators, suggested expert trapping guys be paid to do the job quickly. The Independence exterminating company said rodent or reptile don't position themselves conveniently for pest control companies, and it is not possible to predict the results of a short animal capture. The Independence exterminators said the wildlife management area couldn't afford expert trapping guys.
"With expert trapping guys, it's like the squirrel and skunk season," he said. "You're going to have it year in and year out." The Independence exterminating company said pest control companies pay fees for the privilege and do a good, safe job, making them preferable to expert trapping guys. Two area residents, including village Trustee Roger The critter capture pro, suggested changing the areas where wildlife trapping could occur so that animal removal trap wildlife trapping would occur in the south half of the park, which is less densely surrounded by homes.
"Sure, there are some homes down there," agreed longtime wildlife management area neighbor Bill The Independence exterminators, "but you have a concentration of homes along the rim (the rocky escarpment that gives the wildlife management area its name.)" Independence resident Tom The critter capture pro, who frequently bikes through the park, said the rodent or reptile are wiping out native flowers. He said he has had several near collisions with raccoon and opossum. Despite this, wildlife removal services are not a free service in Jackson County.
One wildlife management company pointed out that pest control companies in Jackson County are restricted to animal capture devices, a short-range weapon with an effective range of about 100 yards. Wildlife trapping regulations forbid wildlife trapping within 100 yards of a residence. Village Trustee Carl Thomson said he did not believe it necessary to have annual catches in the park.
He suggested limiting the animal capture to the nine-day animal removal trap season and closing the wildlife management area during the animal capture. Wildlife trapping has been going on for 20 years in some Missouri parks, and more than 20 wildlife management areas allow some form of wildlife trapping, The Independence exterminating company said. No problem with safety has surfaced.
