North Charleston Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing North Charleston, SC

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

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

  • Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
  • Fully South Carolina and Charleston 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

  • Professional Wildlife and Rodent Removal is a full-service North Charleston wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular North Charleston pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Professional Wildlife and Rodent Removal 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.

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

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Professional Wildlife and Rodent Removal. 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 North Charleston 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 North Charleston 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 North Charleston rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

    Bat removal is a highly specialized task. South Carolina 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 North Charleston pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is North Charleston 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 North Charleston trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a North Charleston 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. Professional Wildlife and Rodent Removal does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by Professional Wildlife and Rodent Removal. 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. Professional Wildlife and Rodent Removal also provides dead animal removal in North Charleston. 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 North Charleston snake removal - most of the snakes in South Carolina are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in North Charleston. And remember, we are a private business, not Charleston County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 843-743-7200. Charleston County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    North Charleston Wildlife Tip #1:
    HOW TO GET FREE BAT REMOVAL

    While the artificial bats on the wall might be considered as wall decor but if a real bat has flown in your home or office and is unsure of how to get back out then it can be of little concern. As you might be aware, bats are nocturnal birds which mean they are active and can see only during night. During the daytime i.e., the time between sunrise and sunset they enter a state called torpidity which means that their mind, body, heart rate, breathing and metabolism decreases in the same way as during hibernation. Hence they behave to be sluggish and disoriented during these times.

    This means that it is not so easy to remove bats from walls and ceilings of your home as they can't just fly up like normal birds. So if you are looking to get free bat removal which in other words can be termed as DIY tips then this post will help you!

    Using trash bags or cans: Bats like to roost at high places and thus in your home or office too, you would find them at ceilings and roofs and thus it is little challenging if you too have fear of heights. The first tip is to take an empty trash bag (the largest in size) and then place it in a manner so that the bats can slide into the bag. The trash bags which are black in colour should be chosen as bats can see black colour during the day as well. You can also use trash cans and then trap the bat using a piece of cardboard. As soon as bat slides into the bag or can, you can take it out and open it in the outside area to allow them to fly! You might need a ladder for this one!

    Use a broom: This one will only work if the bat is on the ground level. You can just keep a long broom in front of it and it will grab it and might bite it too in self-defence. Once you are sure that bat has caught hold of it tightly then just pick up the broom with caution and place it near window or the door or in open area. Close all the other doors, you would see bat crawling away freely in the open space.

    Use a towel: This one really needs boldness and bravery as if bats bite then it can lead to rabies. Make sure you wear all your accessories including long gloves, long sleeves, long shoes and pants too! This involves catching a bat using a towel. If bat is on ground then you can throw a towel on it first and then pick it up. If it is on some wall or ceiling then just grab it with towel in your hands and then leave them in open, The bat will try to squirm around in self-defence and this is where you need to be extra careful. Make sure you don't have your kids or pets around when you are doing this.

    North Charleston Wildlife Tip #2:


    South Carolina Wildlife Information:

    South Carolina State bird: Carolina wren, wild turkey
    State mammal: White-tailed deer
    State reptile: Loggerhead sea turtle
    State amphibian: Spotted salamander
    State fish: Striped bass
    State insect: Carolina mantis

    South Carolina is a coastal state, but its sandy shores extend much further inland than you might expect. Millions of years ago, the ocean coast was much different from what it is now, and the center of the state still shows evidence of ancient sand dunes from that time period. Despite the sandy soil, much of South Carolina has reverted back to forest, though the state is relatively flat except for a small patch of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the upper corner. South Carolina gets the best of both worlds-terrestrial and marine animals all in one state.

    The marine animals seen by beach-goers are nothing short of amazing. South Carolina sees a number of different whale species. There are also dolphin pods, and porpoises that leap through the waves. Unfortunately, like any state along the coast, seagulls take full advantage of people on the sand, going so far as to steal food right out of people's hands. Not only do the gulls harass tourists, they create problems for local businesses and homeowners. The droppings from the birds are very corrosive.

    Inland, the seagulls aren't so powerful. The animal ruling the territories in South Carolina is the alligator. Though not as densely populated as in some states, alligators are in much of the southern part of South Carolina, where the temperatures are more consistent. More widely distributed through the state are coyotes and black bears. There are also red wolves, grey wolves, and mountain lions in South Carolina.

    White-tailed deer and wild hogs tend to be the most common grazers in this state. Many years ago, there were both herds of bison and of elk, but deforestation and hunting have made both species extinct to South Carolina. Any bison herds present are privately owned.

    Nuisance animals live in South Carolina, just as they live in most other states. This region is ideal for pest critters like raccoons, skunks, opossums, rats, mice, and bats. Due to warmer temperature, bats can be particularly problematic because they do not need to migrate away from their roost if it is inside of a home.

    South Carolina also has a number of snakes due to the warm, humid weather. Of the four venomous snakes in the United States, South Carolina has them all. There are cottonmouths, copperheads, coral snakes, and several species of rattlesnakes.
