Florida is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Lehigh Acres 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 Lehigh Acres 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
Lee 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 Lee 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.

Lehigh Acres Wildlife Tip:
DO RATS CARRY RABIES?
Most people consider rats to be vermin that transmits disease and are therefore, very unhealthy to have around the house. This excludes pet rats, who for obvious reasons are mostly clean animals who are well taken care of and do not have contact with wild rats or contract or carry their diseases.
It is widely thought that rats carry and transmit rabies, and that a bite from a rat is a high-risk case of contracting the disease. This is very unlikely, almost impossible as rats do not carry rabies. Though it is scientifically possible for a rat to carry the rabies virus, this is not a reality and wild populations of rats do not show signs of this disease despite them living in large numbers, in confined spaces. The U.S Public Health Service does not require rabies vaccines for people who have been bitten by rats, though a rat bite is quite a common occurrence.
Although scientists are not 100 percent sure why rats to not contract or carry this virus, it is thought that it may be due to the low survival rates of any rat that is bitten by a rabid predator. Although rats are fast, if caught by a rabid fox or dog, the chances of the rat surviving the attack are so low that the risk of it getting infected with the virus are almost non-existent and the rat will die (almost immediately) before it has the chance of infecting another rat and thus spreading the virus within the rat population. This keeps the rat population relatively safe from rabies and there are no known cases of rats having rabies or transmitting the disease to humans.
Even if rats do not transmit rabies, this does not mean that they are harmless. They can indeed transmit other equally fatal diseases; in fact, one of the deadliest epidemics in Europe was the black plague, caused by fleas that jumped from infected rats to humans. But most infections do not occur from bites; rather they can be caused by infection from their feces, urine, saliva or decaying corpses.
A rat bite can very rarely cause what is known as rat-bite fever, which may cause swelling, fever and pain in the joints. It is generally treated with penicillin. Although this infection can resolve itself slowly over time without antibiotics, there is a very small risk of it spreading and becoming potentially fatal to humans. Rats can also carry Leptospirosis which ultimately causes kidney and liver failure, meningitis and jaundice. The illness can last any time between a few days and a few months, and while most patients make a full recovery, if untreated it could potentially lead respiratory failure, high fevers, and death.
