Depending on the situation, a one-way door or excluder valve can be installed. An excluder valve works by allowing the raccoon to leave but blocks its reentry. The choice of device is largely dependent on the season and location of the raccoons on your property. Direct capture is not commonly used because raccoons are a rabies vector species. If we must trap, we place traps strategically to safely catch the raccoons and we check traps frequently, based on state laws.<\/p>\n\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/article>\n\n                  <article class=\"col-md-4\" aria-label=\"Repairs\">\n            <div class=\"icon-card-item\">\n              <div class=\"icon\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\"\n                  src=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/crittercontrol\/crittercontrol\/media\/CritterControl\/Office Finder Refresh\/Icon_HomeRepairs.svg\"\n                  alt=\"House with a wrench decoration logo\">\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h2 class=\"headline\">Repairs<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <p>We provide a wide range of repair and restoration services.

Exclusion techniques repair any damage the animal causes getting into your home. Inside your home, animals build nests and dens out of readily available material. They will create runs through the insulation. Rodents will gnaw on anything including electrical wires and pipes. Animals can also spread diseases. We apply sanitation agents to clean up feces and urine. Mammals can host pests like fleas, ticks, and mites. Ectoparasite treatments exterminate those pests so you don\u2019t become their next host.<\/p>\n\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/services\/wildlife-exclusion\/\"\n                     aria-label=\"Prevention and Repair \"\n                     target=\"_blank\"\n                     rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n                    Prevention and Repair \n                    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"chevron-right\"\n                         class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chevron-right fa-w-10\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"\n                         viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\">\n                      <path fill=\"currentColor\"\n                            d=\"M285.476 272.971L91.132 467.314c-9.373 9.373-24.569 9.373-33.941 0l-22.667-22.667c-9.357-9.357-9.375-24.522-.04-33.901L188.505 256 34.484 101.255c-9.335-9.379-9.317-24.544.04-33.901l22.667-22.667c9.373-9.373 24.569-9.373 33.941 0L285.475 239.03c9.373 9.372 9.373 24.568.001 33.941z\"><\/path>\n                    <\/svg>\n                  <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/article>\n              <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"checkmark-callout\" aria-label=\"checkmark callouts\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"section-intro\">\n      <h2 class=\"section-title\">The Critter Control Difference<\/h2>\n\n    <\/div>\n                  <div class=\"checkmark-callout-item\">\n          <div class=\"icon\">\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"check\"\n                 class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-check fa-w-16\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"\n                 viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\">\n              <path\n                d=\"M173.898 439.404l-166.4-166.4c-9.997-9.997-9.997-26.206 0-36.204l36.203-36.204c9.997-9.998 26.207-9.998 36.204 0L192 312.69 432.095 72.596c9.997-9.997 26.207-9.997 36.204 0l36.203 36.204c9.997 9.997 9.997 26.206 0 36.204l-294.4 294.401c-9.998 9.997-26.207 9.997-36.204-.001z\"><\/path>\n            <\/svg>\n          <\/div>\n          <div class=\"desc\">\n            <span class=\"title\">Guaranteed Work<\/span>\n            <span class=\"text\">Your satisfaction is always guaranteed.

The most common calls in this area involve\u00a0rats and mice in attics and walls, raccoons\u00a0nesting above ceilings,\u00a0squirrels\u00a0in soffits and eaves,\u00a0bats\u00a0roosting in roof voids, and\u00a0armadillos\u00a0tearing up lawns and landscaping. Snakes, opossums, birds, and other wildlife also regularly find their way into garages, crawlspaces, and pool enclosures in Sarasota\u2019s suburban and coastal neighborhoods.\u00a0\u00a0<br\/><br\/><br\/>Critter Control focuses on safely removing these animals and then performing\u00a0long-term exclusion and repairs\u00a0to keep them from getting back in, rather than offering one-time \u201ctrap and release\u201d that lets the problem return.\u00a0\u00a0<br\/><\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1764010275348\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How does the Critter Control process work for Sarasota homes and businesses?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">For Sarasota properties, Critter Control follows a three-step process designed for Florida construction and coastal weather patterns:<br\/>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Inspection\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 A trained wildlife technician performs a full inspection of the roofline, soffits, vents, crawlspace, and attic to locate entry points, droppings, gnawing, nesting areas, and damage.<br\/>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a02.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Removal\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 We use\u00a0humane, species-specific methods\u2014including trapping, one-way doors, and other tools\u2014to remove raccoons, rats, squirrels, bats, birds, armadillos, opossums, and more from your structure.\u00a0\u00a0<br\/>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a03.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong>\u00a0Exclusion &amp; Repair\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 After animals are out, we seal active and potential entry points and can repair damaged areas so wildlife cannot simply move back in.

During this time, it is illegal to block bats from returning to their roosts or to use exclusion devices that could trap flightless pups inside structures.\u00a0\u00a0<br\/><br\/><br\/>Critter Control of Sarasota performs\u00a0legal, FWC-compliant bat exclusions\u00a0outside\u00a0maternity season\u2014generally\u00a0August 15 through April 15.
