Currin Pest Control is a full-service Desoto wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Desoto pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all
similar to wildlife removal. Currin Pest Control performs a full inspection of the home or property, and determines why the animal(s) are there, and if inside a building, how the animals got inside. All
animals (including rodents) are trapped and removed, or if possible, removed from the building using special exclusion devices. Once the animals are gone, preventative repairs are essential, and
cleanup is sometimes recommended.
Desoto wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Texas to trap without a license. Trap type is very important and there are many different types, bait is somewhat relevant, trap placement
is vital, and there are dozens of small things that are very important to know.
Safety is a concern. Then once the animal is trapped, it must be removed and dealt with in the proper manner according to Texas law. We offer Desoto raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.
Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Currin Pest Control. Many types of animals like to live in attics. This includes squirrels, raccoons, rats, mice, bats, birds, and even possums. Critters like to go into attics for a safe place to live
and raise their young. Removing animals from attics is very complex work, partly because of the presence of baby animals. If you need Desoto squirrel removal, we can remove all the squirrels from your attic, and seal out any future ones. Read more about how to get rid of squirrels.
Rodent control must be done in a very specific way. First off, the most important thing is that all the openings that rats and mice can use to enter a house be sealed. Then all the rodents must be physically trapped and removed.
Never, ever use poison! Most Desoto exterminators will just use this lazy poison technique to kill rodents, and it causes more harm than good - dead stinky rats, and it doesn't solve the problem. Call us for correct Desoto rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.
Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Texas is known to have colonizing bats who often live in buildings. Bats love attics. If not removed, the colony can grow to a very large size over the years. The bat droppings are often corrosive and
cause health risks. The same goes for bird droppings on or in buildings. We perform Desoto pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Desoto bat removal. We remove 100% of the bat colony and seal the building so that it's totally bat-proof. Read more about how to get rid of bats.
If you have animals inside a house, no job is complete without proper exclusion repairs. If you simply hire a Desoto trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Desoto wildlife control company that identifies 100% of the animal entry points
into your building, and seals them shut with professional repairs. In addition, in many cases animals have left waste or contamination behind, and you'll want a company that can provide professional cleaning services. Currin Pest Control does both.
The above are just some of the services offered by Currin Pest Control. We also trap and remove animals that destroy lawns, such as moles, or digging animals. Sometimes animals like opossums will live under buildings, steal pet food, raid garbage cans, etc.
Read about how to get rid of opossums. Skunks commonly live under sheds or decks, and set up a den. We can trap and remove them without them spraying. Read about how to get rid of skunks. Currin Pest Control
also provides dead animal removal in Desoto. If you need help with any other wildlife conflict, from a fox, beaver, groundhog, or any other critter, we can solve it. We also do Desoto snake removal - most of the snakes in Texas are not venomous, but
call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Desoto. And remember, we are a private business, not Dallas County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 972-274-2489.
Dallas County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Desoto Wildlife Tip #1:
What kind of damage do rodents cause in an attic?
The rodent can harm enough in the attic, but not always. It depends on many factors, like that number of rodent in the attic, type of rodent, electrical wiring presence or presence of water pipes or lack of water, insulation type, and similar length. That is why inspection of Attic is important. You can understand what the rodents are doing. Search for scratched insulation, ripped, animal erosion, and urinary stains, and so on. Look for the chewed wood, and overcome the wires, to see if they have been chewed and the risk of fire. In addition, Rodent in Attic will sometimes die, and keep in mind that a dead rodent in the attic horrible smell and flies.
DAMAGE FROM DROPPINGS AND URINE
1. Without your kind of rodent in the attic, you will always receive any notice of loss due to dropping and urine.
2. Normally all the Rodents have associated affects, after eating and drinking food products.
3. The situation of dirt can be damaged due to dropping urine.
4. Depending on the number of existing rodent and where they go to the bathroom.
5. In the best case, you will have to change urine insulation and reduce smell like a health risk.
STORE ITEMS DAMAGE
Maximum use of people to store their goods that do not require a regular basis and it can reach all kinds of problems and additional damage. If you have books, clothes, and paper, rat and mice can chew on them to produce nest from the scrap. It can also be sent to the rodents and other animals in the holes that have stored you in your attic so that the properly nest is created under its cleanliness.
GREASE STAINS
Some types of rodents in the attic, like bats and rodents often leave them from the areas where they go more often. For example, bats are greasy on their coat, and due to them, they are often likely to leave at least small brown stains.
Desoto Wildlife Tip #2:
Texas Wildlife Information:
Texas State bird: Northern mockingbird
State mammal: Nine-banded armadillo, Texas longhorn, Mexican free-tailed bat
State reptile: Texas horned lizard
State amphibian: Texas Toad
State fish: Guadalupe bass
State insect: Monarch butterfly
Texas, the second largest state in the United States, has multiple climate regions, and thus very unpredictable weather patterns. Not only can Texas have tornados, it can be hit with devastating hurricanes or extended periods of drought. West Texas often sees snow, whereas East Texas is almost always hot and dry. Some areas receive ample rain; some areas receive none. All of this variability means any animals living in Texas need to be ready for just about anything.
The regions in Texas where vegetation is scarce and the sun beats down are the prime locations for the many different lizard species living in the state. Of those, the Texas horned lizard spends its days eating the ample supply of ants which also thrive in the dry environment. The desert tortoise also likes to spend time out in the sun, eating prickly pear fruit. Unfortunately, these critters who love to be out in the open are often prey to one of Texas's largest nuisance animals, the coyote. More a bane to farmers, coyotes are opportunistic creatures, smart enough to evade capture and devious enough to break through inadequate fencing. Other large Texas predators, like the cougar and the bobcat, tend to be leery of people, spending most of their time in the scrub forests surrounding rivers like the Rio Grande.
A lack of large predators does not give the state any break from nuisance animals, however. Just like other, smaller states, Texas has significant issues with rodent infestations, including that of rats, mice, and squirrels. Another small animal pest, though not a rodent, is the Mexican free-tail bat, a common creature in the Texas skies at dusk. Bats love to take up residence in attics around the region, and because most areas in Texas are mild during the winter months, the bats will remain all year.
Armadillos also make their presence known in yards around the state. Texas is naturally dry, and a lush yard, which is likely irrigated, will hold a much more enticing amount of bugs for the armored critter. An armadillo can do serious damage to a yard in just one night. If that's not enough, Texas has a good number of both venomous and non-venomous snakes, all of which will be drawn to places with water supplies; aka: pools and ponds.
