Fort Bend County Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing Fort Bend County, TX

If you have a problem with wildlife in your Fort Bend County home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Texas 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 Texas and Fort Bend County, and I recommend the following:

The Critter Squad Inc.
Cell Phone: 979-213-5730

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call The County Animal Services: (281) 342-1512



The Critter Squad Inc. specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Texas also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and The Critter Squad Inc. is specially trained in bat removal. They also perform general wildlife trapping services, such as the capture and removal of skunks or opossums on the property. Call 979-213-5730 to discuss your critter problem and schedule a same-day or next-day appointment. Click here to learn more about what prices we charge in 2020.

When hiring a company to solve your wild animal problem, you want these features:

  • Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
  • Fully Texas and The County licensed and insured
  • Works 7 days per week (critters don't take weekends off)
  • Performs full building inspections: enters and inspects attic
  • Performs exclusion repairs, with guarantee against animal re-entry
  • Offers cleanup of biohazardous wildlife waste

  • The Critter Squad Inc. is a full-service Fort Bend County wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Fort Bend County pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. The Critter Squad Inc. 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.

    Fort Bend County 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 Fort Bend County raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at The Critter Squad Inc.. 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 Fort Bend County 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 Fort Bend County 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 Fort Bend County 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 Fort Bend County pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Fort Bend County 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 Fort Bend County trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Fort Bend County 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. The Critter Squad Inc. does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by The Critter Squad Inc.. 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. The Critter Squad Inc. also provides dead animal removal in Fort Bend County. 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 Fort Bend County 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 Fort Bend County. And remember, we are a private business, not The County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (281) 342-1512. The County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Fort Bend County Wildlife Tip #1:
    How to get mice out of a wall

    Mice can be very troublesome and very destructive. They are small and this gives them much advantage of penetrating most of the areas where other animals cannot access like the walls.

    Proper timing

    With a proper knowledge of the activities of the mice, you can easily comprehend how to get rid of the mice in the best possible manner.

    Mice living within the walls will not easily leave their nests during the daytime and this is the period I would want to call the golden moment to catch the mice you want. Daytime is the best time to conduct all your searches and finally apprehend the nuisance animal.

    Before setting up the traps

    Before you embark in any extermination method you are advised to do the following. Do a thorough search of the animal you are dealing with. Not only the mice will leave within the walls, also other animals will leave there and may require more customized method to trap them. Dropping and some tracks should help you identify the rodent bothering you as the mice otherwise if you lack these obvious signs know that you are dealing with other animals that require sophisticated handling. Check out for any holes in the floor ceilings and everywhere. This should also give you a solid proof of what you are dealing with and truly justify that a mice is in your house. If you do not see such signs know that another animal has become your visitor and not the mice. Look also for chewed surfaces in your home, mice love chewing and destroying. This should prove to you that you are dealing with mice.

    Knowing what you are dealing with is very important as it will also help you decide on the method to use when trapping.

    Luring the mice

    Mice are clever animals and they will not get out of the walls if they notice something weird happening to their dens, therefore you need to come up with something or a plan and one way to achieve that are luring them with a bait. This will get them out and then you can catch them by trapping or any other method.

    Finally

    Getting the mice out of the wall might be difficult but one the mice are out you can now apply different techniques on how to deal with them in the best possible way.

    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.

    You can always call The Critter Squad Inc., any time of day, at 979-213-5730, for a price quote for Fort Bend County wildlife control services. I am confident that this is the best choice amongst wildlife removal companies in Fort Bend County, TX.
