If you have a problem with wildlife in your Dewitt home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Iowa wildlife removal only. This is a specialty business, and regular pest control companies do not use the proper techniques to solve animal problems. I have spent many years reviewing Iowa and Dewitt, and I recommend the following:

Pest Wildlife Removal Iowa City is a full-service Dewitt wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Dewitt pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Pest Wildlife Removal Iowa City 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.

Dewitt wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Iowa 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 Iowa law. We offer Dewitt raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Pest Wildlife Removal Iowa City. 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 Dewitt 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 Dewitt 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 Dewitt rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Iowa 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 Dewitt pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Dewitt 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 Dewitt trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Dewitt 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. Pest Wildlife Removal Iowa City does both.

The above are just some of the services offered by Pest Wildlife Removal Iowa City. 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. Pest Wildlife Removal Iowa City also provides dead animal removal in Dewitt. 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 Dewitt snake removal - most of the snakes in Iowa are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Dewitt. And remember, we are a private business, not Clinton County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (563) 659-3145. Clinton County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Dewitt Wildlife Tip #1:


What Is an Armadillo's Natural Diet and How Does It Get Its Food?

Natural Diet of Armadillo:

Armadillos are burrowing animals that dig the ground faster than groundhogs. Secondly, these animals like eating different insects, bugs and termites. They have very poor eyesight, but they feel their diets with their extremely powerful smelling and hearing senses. In these days; many studies have discovered that armadillos usually love to eating bugs and insects up to 90%. They also eat other rotten grocery items and eggs of pests.

Termites and Typical Ants:

These are very famous and more interesting diets of an armadillo. These animals keep seeking for these termites and typical ants with sufficient weight to eat. Usually, these animals live on grassy fields and in gardens to get the termites and typical ants excessively.

Bugs and Big Insects:

Big insects and bugs are also very famous natural diets of armadillos. These animals dig the ground and find bugs in soil to eat them. The babies of armadillos also start eating from these insects and bugs in soil. Further, armadillos also seek for grubs and worms which they love more to eat. These specific insects and worms carry huge protein that boosts the energy level of armadillos.

Fruits and Rotten Items:

No doubt, armadillos also use rotten fruits and contaminated food items to eat. These animals usually visit the yards and gardens for getting such healthy and natural food for their appetite. In addition, they also seek for skins, snakes, frog eggs and some rotten objects to meet their hunger needs.

How Do They Get Diet?

Of course; all of the diets described above are available openly in environment. The armadillos usually dig the ground to get many types of insects and bugs. They also move to holes and dens of termites, fire ants and other worms to get these species to eat.



Dewitt Wildlife Tip #2:


Iowa Wildlife Information:

Iowa State bird: Eastern goldfinch
State amphibian: North American bullfrog
State fish: Channel catfish

Iowa is a central state in the Midwest, and its location has given it the nickname "America's heartland". Despite being a naturally flat state which used to have plentiful forests, Iowa has given up much of its natural habitats in favor of agriculture. Now, forests only cover 7 percent of the entire state, often in the river valleys only where farming isn't practical or easy. Thirty percent of the state is still grassland, but only 1 percent of that 30 is original prairie land. More than half of the state-at 60 percent-is active farmland. The weather in this region is warm and humid during the summers with cold, snowy winters. Thunderstorms are common on a daily basis in the warm weather.

Unlike other states with grasslands, Iowa no longer has many of the large grazing creatures that loved to live on the plains. Elk and bison have long since been extirpated from the state due to heavy deforestation and land conversion. Only white-tailed deer remain, and these were once wiped off Iowa soil as well. The species was re-introduced and has thrived, but it is still uncommon in some areas.

Despite the lack of large grazers, predators have fared better in Iowa that in other states. For a while, there was thought to be no evidence of mountain lions or gray wolves, but the large cats have been making a comeback. Experts feel there may now be a breeding population in the state. Smaller predators, like bobcats and coyotes, live off the plentiful small animals that live around the countryside. There are plenty of rabbits, prairie dogs, and raccoons to keep the carnivores happy.

An abundance of small animals means an abundance of pest animals, and Iowa is no exception. The state has raccoons, bats, squirrels, mice, rats, and opossums. Spotted skunks are protected by the state, but they can still become pest animals.

Unfortunately, Iowa has lost many of its native animals due to the progressive nature of humans. A number of animals are on the endangered species list including bald eagles, flying squirrels, bats, certain owls, and a number of lizards, insects, fish, and reptiles. While the original agriculture move ousted many of the state's species, Iowa is taking steps to protect the remaining wildlife.
