Pennsylvania is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Scranton 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 Scranton wildlife 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 Lackawanna 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 Lackawanna 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.

Scranton Wildlife Tip:
What trap should I set up on my roof -If you're going to trap on the roof, you need to buy a cage trap large enough to accommodate an adult raccoon. There are two ways to attach the trap you your roof. You can attach it directly to the opening the raccoons are using, guiding them into the cage with a funnel of wire mesh. This is often the best way to trap raccoons, especially if they can be scared out of the attic or encouraged to leave the chimney. Sometimes this setup isn't possible and you have to place the trap on the flat part of the roof. The things to remember with this setup are to make sure the trap is level and bolted securely. Place something beneath the trap to protect your shingles from a frantic raccoon's claws and teeth. You will want to bolt the trap as close to the hole the raccoons are using as possible. Part of successful trapping is proper placement. If you want to bait the trap, use bread or marshmallows. Often, the raccoon in the attic or chimney is a mother. If you trap her first, make sure you do a thorough search for the babies so the family can be relocated together.
