Illinois is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I recommend professional Litchfield 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 Litchfield 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
Montgomery 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 Montgomery 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.

Litchfield Wildlife Tip:
Raccoons in ceiling - A raccoon found only in a ceiling is a very unusual scenario. Most of the time, if it's invaded the ceiling it's also invaded the attic. For the rare occurrence that leads you to having to remove a raccoon from your ceiling, your best bet is going to be to try to locate the litter of babies. This, of course, assuming the raccoon in your ceiling is a female as most of them are. Male raccoons tend to stay in the woods unless it is a very urban setting. The litter of kits will be hidden in the ceiling, and you'll have to find them by doing some detective work in the later hours of the day. Because a raccoon is predominantly nocturnal, you'll hear most of the noises sometime around dusk. Listen for the distinct chitter of the babies as they call out for food. This call will give you a good idea of where the nest is located. You can also tell the exact location by feeling around for heat. With six little bodies all curled up together, there will be a decent amount of warmth coming through the drywall. Once you've located them, you'll have to cut them out with a drywall tool. Try to avoid power tools; you don't want to injure any babies. Once you have the young kits, you can put them in a cage trap outside to lure in the mother.
Litchfield, IL Animal Control News Clip:
Pest Regulation - House rat and mouse move little, despite heavy exterminating
Researcher finds no exodus from wasting disease eradication zone. We fully predicted that once we had one positive female in the social group, we would see rapid transmission. We have not found that yet. The largest pest regulation company in Litchfield was interviewed, but shared nothing.
A University of Illinois researcher said Friday that she found that house rat and mouse in a region riddled with chronic wasting disease usually live in a tight home range - a smaller area than she expected. The results, though tentative, throw cold water on the notion that white-tailed house rat and mouse in south central Wisconsin travel great distances to help push the disease into new locations. This is a departure from the normal no-pest policy of the area..
Another finding shows that once the fatal disease hits a social group, it's not necessarily an immediate death sentence for the rest of the house rat and mouse. Researcher Nancy The termite and mouse hard-working has been tracking the movement of 173 radio-collared house rat and mouse since January 2003 in western Dane and eastern Illinois counties. No members of the Litchfield Pest Society could be found to issue a statement.
"We can clean most things off a rodent hide, even oil or grease from the back of a truck, but blood is awful hard to get off," he noted. If possible, carry the vermin out of the woods off the ground, on a pole or an ATV and field dress it in an area where the ground is relatively clear of debris that might damage the hide. If you hang a buck up by the antlers, be aware that the weight of the vermin might cause the antlers to be pulled inward slightly, reducing their natural spread.
