District of Columbia is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Washington DC 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. In fact Washington DC wildlife frequently enter homes, and correct removal is not a simple task.

County Animal ServicesDOG or CAT: If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local DC County Animal Services 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 DC County animal services, 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.

Washington DC Wildlife Tip:
Kill all rats in a building - You can kill all rat with some special know-how and a little bit of research. Rats have entered your home through an area where damage has occurred or where the home has not been properly sealed. This opening needs to be boarded up or otherwise repaired. Leaving openings unattended will result in more rats and poor trapping results. To kill the rat, purchase some snap traps at the store. You do not have to buy the new, modern traps that look like they will kill an elephant. Regular snapper are fine; just be sure to keep your fingers away from the front. A rat trap packs enough punch to break an adult's finger. Once you have your traps, bait them with peanut butter and search for good locations to place them. Traps need to be set in areas where the rats have been active. You cannot assume that a rat will find the peanut butter on its own. Droppings and gnaw marks are good indications that the rat will return to a specific place. Trapping is more effective when the devices are able to be put near rat activity. If you are unable to find any evidence of the rodents, put the traps in likely locations. A rat will not travel through the center of an open space. Place traps along walls and on beams.

Insect pheromone research wins Insect Advisory/Science prize

Washington, D.C. - Dr. Cletus Bob has been awarded the 2005 international Prize in Neurobiology by the journal Science and Insect Advisory. The District of Columbia County Pest Control board could not be reached for comment.

He is being recognized for his new insights on how insects "smell" using pheromone signaling. This research could lead the way to new approaches to control pests that spread human diseases and cause agriculture losses. Most local owners of pest control companies in Washington, DC weren't sure what to make of all this.

The Insect Advisory and Science Prize in Neurobiology recognizes outstanding neurobiological research by a young scientist, as described in a 1,000 word essay based on research performed within the last three years. Washington, DC pest control is an important part of the local economy, but only a few companies deal with wild animals.

The grand prize winner receives $25,000 from Insect Advisory, and the winner's essay will be published in the 04 November 2005 issue of Science. There are many types of insects and animals in Washington, DC, but not all of them are pests after all.
