California is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Chico 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 Chico animals 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 Butte 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 Butte 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.

Chico Wildlife Tip:
Squirrel Prevention - How To Keep Squirrels Away From Your House and Yard - Squirrels species are about 300 in the whole world. In North America there are only about 10 species. The average age of a squirrel is 10 or 12 years if they are not eaten by predators or knocked down by moving vehicles. They reach sexual maturity by the age of 1 year and reproduce twice a year. 1 litter of squirrels may contain 2 to 5 small squirrels. These rodents may cause a nuisance in a neighbourhood, if they are many. They love eating vegetables like carrots, lettuce, tomatoes and leaves. If anyone has a small vegetable garden, these rodents may help themselves to some of the best in the garden. This may cause a homeowner much loss, especially if he has spent a lot of time and effort to plant his seeds, and watch them grow.

How to prevent squirrels from entering the garden
Squirrels love eating seeds and nuts so, if you have a bird feeder in your yard, they may try all means to get to it. If you have a rodent proof feeder, this will not stop them from coming into the yard. There are always seeds on the ground which will attract them. When they come into the garden, they might notice the ripening fruits and vegetables. To avoid all this, a gardener should consider feeding the birds in winter or spring. This is because during the summer and fall, most of the plants are ripening. If you must feed the birds during the summer or fall, you should put the feeder at some great distance from the garden. You can also use squirrel repellents to keep the rodents from your home and garden.


Chico, CA Animal Control News Clip:
Squirrel Repellents are effective in addition to a physical barrier because they provide protection to your vegetable garden. They are cheaper than physical fence, and they may last for 90 days without the need to reapply. However, the effectiveness of this method might be hindered by a constant downpour. Scientists have come up with some exceptionally basic and effective invention known as a motion detecting sprinkler. In case any pest wildlife including a squirrel comes within a range of the sensor, the sprinkler is activated and sprays water on the startled animal. The sprinkler sprays water for up to 3 seconds and the jets can reach up to a diameter of 1000 feet.

What to do in case of infestation
A basic and humane method of getting rid of squirrels in the home or yard is trapping and removal. Trapping is a humane method because the squirrels are trapped alive, and they are not killed afterward. This method may prove to be effective if you hire a qualified exterminator. They have experience on how best to trap the rodents and how to dispose them off your home. The trapping method requires bait, and in the case of squirrels, they love eating seeds, carrots, lettuce, peanuts, tomatoes, cabbage and peanut butter among others. By persistently following the mentioned methods, you may reduce the number of squirrels in your home and neighbourhood.
