The same pond you add to your Rockhill, South Carolina, yard for aesthetic reasons can become a habitat for venomous snakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Designing your landscaping with care and installing exclusionary measures on your home are just some ways you\u2019ll need to adapt for better wildlife control. The warm climate and mild winters can allow some animals to breed year-round. This means they might see parts of your home as ideal nesting grounds at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your efforts to get along with animals like raccoons or bats run into a problem, call Critter Control. We\u2019re equipped to help you with all the wildlife removal challenges common to this part of the state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<section class=\"steps-cards\" aria-label=\"cards showing easy steps\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"section-intro row\">\n      <h2 class=\"section-title\">Critter Control Wildlife Removal Process<\/h2>\n      <div class=\"section-desc\">\n        <p><p>Critter Control is here for you every step of the way in the wildlife removal process.

They\u2019re also known for entering wall and attic spaces when temperatures cool off. They normally nest in the hollows of trees that have begun to rot, but they\u2019ll find every little opening in your home\u2019s exterior instead if they can. The gnawing efforts of these rodents can damage your rafters, wiring, plumbing, and more. They also tend to displace insulation and leave droppings behind that grow mold and fungi on them. Even if you think squirrels are cute, it\u2019s not possible to share your home with them.<\/p>\n<p>The trick to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/wildlife\/squirrels\/how-to-get-rid-of-squirrels\/\">get rid of squirrels in a humane way<\/a>\u00a0is similar to the method used for bats. One-way cages are used, or one-way flaps that allow the squirrel to leave but not return. Often, a cage is placed to verify the animal causing the infestation. Then, the exclusion devices are added so the other squirrels don\u2019t need manual removal. We\u2019ll follow up by sealing off the former openings with materials like hardware cloth so they can\u2019t gnaw their way back in.<\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"icon-cards\" aria-label=\"icon cards\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n                        <article class=\"col-md-4\" aria-label=\"Inspection\">\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_HomeInspection.svg\"\n                  alt=\"House with a magnifying glass icon\">\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h2 class=\"headline\">Inspection<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <p>Wildlife specialists look for signs such as chewing on, in, or around your home, small openings leading to the attic or the crawl space, droppings, and debris like nuts or nesting material.

They may look cute, but don\u2019t underestimate their capacity for damage. Raccoons often target garbage cans and similar storage units first. They\u2019ll make a mess of your trash, spreading it around and attracting other animals in the area. If they stay out in the trees and hassle your trash cans, that\u2019s a fairly mild issue. The bigger problems begin when<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/wildlife\/raccoons\/raccoons-in-attics\/\">\u00a0raccoons get in attic<\/a>\u00a0or crawlspace. They can transfer diseases, chew wires, and access other parts of your home to spread the damage.<\/p>\n<p>Hot summers tend to limit their interest in the attic to the wintertime, but cool crawlspaces are attractive all year round. You\u2019ll often have to start under the home to get rid of raccoons in a permanent way. Unfortunately, homes in the Rockhill area tend to feature small crawlspaces rather than full-sized basements due to the high water table. That means it\u2019s tricky to work in a limited space with a hissing wild animal.

Unfortunately, bat guano hosts a fungus that can cause a serious lung disease known as histoplasmosis. Even cleaning up the guano requires special protection equipment, such as a respirator and gloves, and sanitation measures.<\/p>\n<p>You may suspect you need to get rid of bats if you notice a musty smell in your attic or see dark smudges around vents or other entry points on the outside of the house. Soft rustling or squeaking sounds at night may indicate nesting, but don\u2019t go up to your attic yourself to check. Let a professional handle the inspection since direct contact with bats isn\u2019t a good idea without protective equipment. They\u2019re also a protected species in South Carolina, so trying to handle them yourself could lead to trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Once a bat or colony is identified, it\u2019s usually allowed to leave on its own. Most bats you\u2019ll find inside the attic or walls are mothers trying to raise their pups. Critter Control uses one-way exclusion bat valves so the bats can easily leave when they\u2019re old enough to venture out, but they can\u2019t get back in to nest again. They\u2019ll find somewhere else to live and leave you free to clean up your home.<\/p>\n<p>Home attics are usually too hot to host bats through the summer in South Carolina. It\u2019s more common to experience nesting issues in this area in the fall or spring instead. Winter nesting is rare, but it can occur if there is enough space for an entire colony.<\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"icon-cards\" aria-label=\"icon cards\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n                        <article class=\"col-md-4\" aria-label=\"Inspection\">\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_HomeInspection.svg\"\n                  alt=\"House with a magnifying glass icon\">\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n                <h2 class=\"headline\">Inspection<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"desc\">\n                  <p>We perform a full interior and exterior inspection and search for signs such as rub marks, guano, a strong scent of ammonia, and small openings.

In addition, a squirrel can carry fleas and ticks, which may spread to humans and domesticated animals. A squirrel nesting in an attic will gnaw on beams or wires, which can lead to costly repairs or fire hazards.<br\/>b. <strong>Raccoons<\/strong>&#8211; Active year around, these nocturnal animals can cause serious damage to yards and gardens and often create dens beneath a porch or worse yet, inside your crawl space.<br\/>c. <strong>Bats\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; Because bats feed at night, South Carolina residents rarely see them. However, these pests are dangerous when roosting in attics, chimneys, walls, or outbuildings. Homeowners should avoid exposure to bat waste, since their droppings may develop fungal spores that, when inhaled, can cause histoplasmosis. Bats inside your living space should be handled only by professionals because bats can carry rabies and will bite or scratch when they&#8217;re handled.<br\/>d. <strong>Rats\/Mice\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Because of their size, rats can gain access to your home through small holes in your roof or other means.\u00a0 They can pose a threat to your home by ripping out insulation, ruining walls, and chewing up belongings.
