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

Wildlife Removal Pros
Cell Phone: 859-475-5860

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Jessamine County Animal Services: (859) 881-0821

Wildlife Removal Pros specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Kentucky also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Wildlife Removal Pros is specially trained in bat removal.

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

• Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
• Fully Kentucky and Jessamine 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



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

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

Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Wildlife Removal Pros. 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 Nicholasville 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 Nicholasville 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 Nicholasville rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

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

The above are just some of the services offered by Wildlife Removal Pros. 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. Wildlife Removal Pros also provides dead animal removal in Nicholasville. 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 Nicholasville snake removal - most of the snakes in Kentucky are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Nicholasville. And remember, we are a private business, not Jessamine County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (859) 881-0821. Jessamine County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Nicholasville Wildlife Tip #1:
What Diseases Do Squirrels Carry?

Like many other rodents, squirrels are also observed to carry several disease viruses. Although most of them show mild symptoms, few may lead to a very serious disease if not diagnosed on time. Earlier, squirrels were found in wild and forest areas mostly but from past few years; these creatures have shifted to urban areas. With this change, they are now found commonly around human habitats, so it is a common question in several minds that What diseases do squirrels carry? After all, it is important to stay aware of all medical health issues associated with the creatures that are living around you so that you can take safe steps to protect your family.

Although there are very few cases of any serious medical health trouble poses to humans due to squirrel bites still it is important to be careful. Some diseases can cause potential health risks to humans and pets around. Below we have discussed few common diseases carried by squirrels:

1. Rabies:
Many people are worried if all squirrels carry the rabies virus. But the truth is that there are very rare cases where the squirrel is found infected with rabies virus. In case if a squirrel somehow gets infected with this virus, there are chances that symptoms may go unnoticed for a long time. However, few common symptoms that you may observe in rabies-infected squirrels are fear of light that forces them to stay in the dark most of the time. They may also release excessive saliva or can show some irritable behavior. The virus may get transferred to other animals or humans via bites or scratches.

2. Bubonic Plaque:
For some of you, it may sound strange; squirrels can be infected with Bubonic plaque disease. The common symptoms associated with this disease are weakness, fever, petechial rashes and gangrene but they are not always noticeable in all infected squirrels. From past few years; many cases of this infection are found in Southwest area of USA. Authorities prefer to isolate the area with infected bodies and provide fast treatment to stop the trouble. This disease may get transferred to humans as well but can be treated with some antibiotics.

3. Bacterial and Fungal Infections:
In case if you find a squirrel that is losing most of its hair and is appearing bald from its back; the chances are that it is infected with some serious bacterial or fungal infection. Such squirrels must be treated fast by veterinarians otherwise they may spread the disease ahead. This disease can get transferred to humans via physical contact.

4. Squirrel Pox:
When squirrels are infected by insect bites; they may suffer squirrel pox or fibroma. In this condition; these rodents develop visible kind of tumors on skin area, but it is usually harmless to them. Other than this, squirrels may also be infected with Tularaemia and Leptospirosis diseases that can also get transferred to humans and may cause sudden kidney and liver failure. Hence, it is important to maintain a good distance from squirrels.

Nicholasville Wildlife Tip #2:


Kentucky Wildlife Information:

Kentucky State bird: Northern cardinal
State mammal: Gray squirrel, Thoroughbred horse
State fish: Kentucky spotted bass
State insect: Viceroy butterfly

Kentucky is a state full of rich farmland. It has a relatively flat terrain, but the state has a nice mixture of rolling hills and flat areas covered in bluegrass. The rich vegetation has been the home of some large grazing animals through the centuries, including bison. There are no wild breeding populations of bison within the state any longer, but the country's highest population of elk makes Kentucky their home. At one point in time, the state was also the native land of cougars, red wolves, and gray wolves. All three species have since been extirpated. The only top predators are now coyotes and black bears, though the black bears tend to keep to berries and insects. Some issues have been had with bears becoming too bold around garbage cans or trash sites. In situations like these, the state game commission comes in and moves the offending bear to a new location.

Coyotes are not as commonly picked up and moved, but the canines can cause some issues with farmers if natural food supplies are low. Some resident landowners have taken to introducing llamas into herds of smaller livestock. The llamas are not afraid of coyotes, and the large creatures can easily fend off an attack.

Kentucky tends to have a humid, hot summer and then a cooler, wet winter. The state can reach cold temperatures reminiscent of the Northeast, but those days are few and far between. Because the climate is so varied and the vegetation lush, Kentucky has a fair share of the common nuisance animals in the United States. Homeowners in Kentucky have to do battle with a variety of mouse species. This is due to the thick grasses which cover most of the state. Mice love to be concealed in a thick carpet of grass. Larger nuisance creatures make their home in the state as well, including bats, raccoons, snakes, beavers, otters, porcupines, opossums, squirrels, rats, armadillos, and prairie dogs.

Middle-sized animals thrive in Kentucky bluegrass. The state has a large population of rabbits, followed by a large population of foxes and bobcats. Even in areas where trees are scarce, rabbits and foxes can move through tall grass without being detected. Their burrows are protected from sight, and they are rarely seen by the public unless invading a yard.
