Wildlife Infestation Signs

Telltale Signs of a Wildlife Infestation

Wildlife pests often leave subtle, yet destructive, signs of their presence. Lucky for you, our professional wildlife control team has seen it all. We are here to help you identify the common signs of an infestation before the damage gets extensive.

Raccoon Attic Noises

Noises in Attic or Walls

Sounds from your attic, walls, or crawlspace are a common giveaway that an animal intruder (raccoons, squirrels, bats) is present.

Listen closely for:

  • Scratching or scurrying (often squirrels or mice).
  • Loud thumping or walking (often raccoons or larger animals).
  • Squeaking, chirping, or flapping (often bats or birds).

Droppings & Urine

Unpleasant, strong, or musty smells often indicate a serious problem. Scattered animal droppings or large urine stains in attics, garages, basements, or even on drywall are a significant health risk. Our team can identify the species involved based on the waste.

Visible Damage Outdoors

Wildlife causes external damage to gain entry or gather nesting material.

Look for signs such as:

  • Chewed wires or damaged wood on exterior structures.
  • Torn vents, gaps, or missing shingles along the roofline.
  • Disturbed insulation or holes/tunnels in landscaping.
