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

  • Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
  • Fully Indiana and Wayne 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 Northern Indiana is a full-service Richmond wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Richmond pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Wildlife Removal Northern Indiana 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.

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

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

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

    The above are just some of the services offered by Wildlife Removal Northern Indiana. 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 Northern Indiana also provides dead animal removal in Richmond. 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 Richmond snake removal - most of the snakes in Indiana are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Richmond. And remember, we are a private business, not Wayne County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 765-962-6811. Wayne County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Richmond Wildlife Tip #1:
    How Do You Remove A Raccoon Stuck In A Dumpster?

    Raccoons often prefer to visit human habitat in search of food and shelter. Being omnivorous creatures; they can eat up anything that is easily available around. You might be aware of the fact that raccoons are nocturnal animals, so they often come out in the night hours. Many homeowners in the United States report a common problem with the raccoons that they some morning find raccoons stuck in the trash cans.

    If you are also facing same issues on your premises and want to know safe techniques to remove raccoons from the trashcans, it is better to consult raccoon removal experts. Actually, raccoons are aggressive animals; when they are angry, they can even bite and scratch your skin leading to some serious health issues. Moreover, when a baby raccoon is stuck inside the trashcan, you will not be able to handle it safely. The baby may get harmed during the extraction process. Also, you have to make sure that raccoon can be taken out without making a mess and it should not even get an opportunity to attack you. They must be handled carefully and relocated to some safe location.

    However, in case if you are not in a position to call raccoon exterminators to handle raccoons stuck in the dumpster, it is good to follow few expert tips to handle these creatures:

    One of the best solution to remove a raccoon out of the dumpster is to use snare pole. It is easier to pick the raccoon using snare pole, and it can be easily put inside the cage or container. Then you can carry the container far away from human habitats and release the animal carefully. But, this technique is not recommended to homeowners because in most of the states it is illegal to use snare pole treatment on raccoons. Also, without any experience to handle snare poles, you may end up hurting the animal. When raccoons get stuck inside dumpsters; they become too scared that as soon as you take them out of the dumpster; they can attack. Also, with this method, you cannot solve the problem forever. The raccoon may return by the next day, and after few days it will again stick inside the dumpster.

    One thing that you can try to help them come out of the dumpster is to put more garbage in it. You might be aware of the fact that raccoons consider garbage as their best food source in urban areas and they are skilled enough to jump in and out of the trash cans when they are almost full. They can easily climb up and down using their dexterous front paws. You can also put a long branch into the dumpster that raccoon can use to climb out of the dumpster. It is the best way to help him get out of the large dumpster without harming him. Inserting branches or other materials into dumpsters is an easier task, but the released animal can return. So you can take help from professionals to ensure a permanent solution.

    Indiana Wildlife Information:

    Indiana State bird: Northern cardinal
    State fish: Largemouth bass

    Indiana is one of the larger states in the country, and it was sculpted millions of years ago by receding glaciers. The part of the state formed in this manner is full of rich soil, ideal for farming. Because the state is primarily rolling hills and flat plains, agriculture is the main focus of many people living in the region. Not surprisingly, farming brings with it a slew of animals that like to live off of crops. Probably the most detrimental of these species is the prairie dog. With an extensive network of tunnels, the smart mammal can inadvertently compromise structural integrity of buildings or cause machines to get stuck out in fields. If farmers are really unlucky, livestock, like cows, will get their legs stuck in the holes. A cow with a broken legs rarely recovers and lives another day.

    But prairie dogs aren't the only creatures on the lookout for fields of crops. Wild hogs are problematic in Indiana. The large combative pigs only have a few natural predators: coyotes and cougars. The mountain lion won't eat a pig a day; if anything, it might eat a pig a week. Such a limited diet does nothing for population control. Coyotes are more apt to eat a number of pigs, but the hogs are so fierce, it would take a sizeable pack to run one down. Humans have been incorporated into the process of controlling these swine, and open seasons for hunting are common.

    If the hogs and the prairie dogs don't get the farmers, the birds just might. Crop fields are favorite places for flocks of birds to congregate and eat seed. Most fields are so large and densely planted that a few crows or geese can't hurt them, but private farmers can lose an entire crop to over-zealous geese.

    Even though there are no real mountains in this state, there are a number of deep stream ravines. These regions have allowed beavers to flourish, and the more pools the beavers create, the more animals like muskrats, blue herons, and frogs will be seen.

    Indiana only has four venomous snakes, two of which are species of rattle snakes. The other two venomous snakes are copperheads and cottonmouths. There are 30 other non-venomous snake species in the state.

    Raccoons, skunks, opossums, and squirrels are also abundant.

    You can always call Wildlife Removal Northern Indiana, any time of day, at 765-212-3541, for a price quote for Richmond wildlife control services. I am confident that this is the best choice amongst wildlife removal companies in Richmond, IN.
