If you have a problem with wildlife in your Lufkin 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 Lufkin, and I recommend the following:

• Performs exclusion repairs, with guarantee against animal re-entry

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

Lufkin 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 Lufkin raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Lufkin Wildlife Removal Professionals. 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 Lufkin 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 Lufkin 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 Lufkin 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 Lufkin pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Lufkin 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 Lufkin trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Lufkin 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. Lufkin Wildlife Removal Professionals does both.

The above are just some of the services offered by Lufkin Wildlife Removal Professionals. 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. Lufkin Wildlife Removal Professionals also provides dead animal removal in Lufkin. 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 Lufkin 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 Lufkin. And remember, we are a private business, not Angelina County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (936) 633-0218. Angelina County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Lufkin Wildlife Tip #1:
How Do I Clean Raccoon Feces Out Of My Attic?

Cleaning up the attic after the raccoon has been safely captured is extremely important as a part of the disinfestation process and ensuring that the surroundings remain clean and tidy which act as potential deterrents to rodents like raccoons.

Some of the most common leftover things include feces, latrine, fur, parasites and a body odor of the raccoon which denotes that she has lived in the past. So we need to ensure that we remove all traces of its stay and prevent a potential breeding ground for parasites by cleaning of the raccoon feces from the attic. Here are few steps which ensure in thorough removal. Vacuuming the fecal droppings: Since the size of the droppings is small and removing them by hand can be a mess it is best that you use a vacuum cleaner to remove them efficiently. The feces can be found anywhere in the attic such as the insulation, surface or in the air vents and care should be taken to remove them thoroughly with the use of a filter vacuum. In case of large fecal droppings, a vacuum is much less effective and you need to remove these with your hand. It is extremely important to be equipped with proper protection measures such as a mask, protective suit and thick rubber gloves to ensure that you do not come in any sort of skin contact with the fecal matter as they are carriers of various diseases. Once you have able to remove all the fecal matter, some of them are still left behind along with animal fur, urine and pests. In order to eliminate them efficiently the attic needs to be fogged using a specialized atomizing mist machine, which is used efficiently to clean biohazard waste. It helps to remove organic matter which in this case is the animal waste without doing any kind of damage to the wooden structure in the attic. The mist helps to neutralize the harmful effects of the waste and helps in removing any long lasting odor left behind. Get rid of the animal smell so as to prevent future invasions.

Once you have done all the above steps your attic is now sanitized and free from all traces of a raccoon encroachment. For effective sanitization using the atomizing mist machine to get rid of the effects of biohazard waste is extremely important and it is better off if you let an expert handle this matter directly. In case the damage caused by the animal waste is too much a complete refurbishment of the attic is the best way forward.

Lufkin 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.
