San Diego County Wildlife Removal Tip:

If There's A Rodent; It Attic Nests - Rodents in your attic are troublesome and noisy. They are able to squeeze their way in through the smallest of spaces and once in are extremely difficult to get rid of. The first rodent to arrive is quite often a pregnant momma rodent looking for a warm safe place to build a nest for her young - this means that you will soon have a whole family of rodents living in your attic, and destroying your attic! If a rodent finds a great place to live they are also inclined to invite their friends over - without taking the proper steps to eliminate your rodent problems you may well find you have a whole colony of them living in your attic.

Whilst going about their everyday lives rodents can cause huge amounts of damage - in common with other rodents, rodents have teeth that grow constantly; the only way they can survive is by constantly chewing and gnawing in order to keep their teeth at a manageable level. This means that whilst they are in your attic they will be chewing - anything and everything. Wiring, furniture, floors, walls, enlarging any little holes or gaps they see, etc. Finding and dealing with the rodents in your attic as quickly as possible is the only way to prevent the damage they can cause.

San Diego County, CA Animal Control News Clip:

Police Shoot Pit Bulls Terrorizing Neighborhood
One Dog Killed, Other Shot In Shoulder

SAN DIEGO -- Police fatally shot a dog that was allegedly menacing people on a Paradise Hills roadside Tuesday, authorities reported. San Diego police got a report about two aggressive pit bulls chasing a little girl near the intersection of Potomac Street and Alta View Drive about 3:30 p.m., a dispatcher said. For more information, call the animal services of San Diego, California.

Police told Southern California media that both dogs charged at them. They opened fire, killing one of the two dogs. They cornered the other dog and shot it in the shoulder. Animal Control took the dog, Southern California media reported. Neighbor Daniel Gomez said, "We've had trouble with the dogs before. It's a male and female pit bull that live next door to us. Apparently they escaped and were harassing a little girl." Animal and carcass removal services in San Diego County is dedicated to helping California and San Diego.

According to Southern California media, the owner of the dogs is upset about the shooting and said police did not have to kill his dog. "It's just like two family members taken from our lives for no reason. I understand they got free. I don't think it was drastic enough to shoot and kill them," owner Eva Canine care said. San Diego County animal control says it will continue to help with domestic animal issues, but not with California wildlife problems.

Canine care claims the dogs tried to return home while they were being chased by police and were shot in front of their house. Police are interviewing neighbors and continue to investigate the incident. San Diego County animal services in San Diego, California, declined to comment on the matter.
