With their masks and banded bushy tails, human-like hands, and appetite for just about anything, they roam Wilmington streets for many miles. They use the cover of night to tip garbage cans, scatter trash, damage feed bins, put holes in your yard, open dumpsters, and damage garden crops are some examples of their destruction outdoors. Raccoons will also break into your home to find a cozy spot to rest. You will see smudges on the outside of your home from where they climb to the roof to enter your vents, chimney, or attic. They will break doors and screens and even crawl through pet doors to get inside.<\/p>\n<p>Once inside, raccoons pile up feces and urine, break boards, chew wires, rip insulation, and scratch insulation. All these minor damages can be costly over time.

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.

The only humane method of bat removal is with a one-way bat valve installed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncwildlife.gov\/news\/press-releases\/2025\/03\/24\/repair-homes-now-bat-pupping-season\">before May 1st or after July 31st<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Bats even poop while roosting upside down, allowing it to run over their bodies. They hang on one foot to groom themselves with the other, but this does not mean they are clean. Touching a bat or its guano can be dangerous. Rather than put yourself at risk, call us.

A nuisance animal causes annoyance in your neighborhood or property. It may also pose a threat to the public and damage your home, office, or other building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Wilmington, examples of nuisance wildlife are raccoons, rats, mice, squirrels, bats, skunks, opossums, and birds. Do you have a wild animal invading your space? If so, call the experts for removal, like the ones at Critter Control in Wilmington, who provide a thorough inspection, remove the animal, and repair damages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1711741577439\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What are some of the most common wildlife issues that homeowners face in your area?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Rats, moles, snakes, opossums, raccoons, squirrels and insects.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1711771661036\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do the seasons affect wildlife activity in your area?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">We have rats and moles year round.
