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

Central Michigan Wildlife Services

Central Michigan Wildlife Services specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes.

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

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

Central Michigan Wildlife Services is a full-service Roscommon County wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Roscommon County pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Central Michigan Wildlife Services 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.

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

Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Central Michigan Wildlife Services. 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 Roscommon County 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 Roscommon County 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 Roscommon County rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Michigan 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 Roscommon County pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Roscommon County 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 Roscommon County trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Roscommon County 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. Central Michigan Wildlife Services does both.

The above are just some of the services offered by Central Michigan Wildlife Services. 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. Central Michigan Wildlife Services also provides dead animal removal in Roscommon County. 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 Roscommon County snake removal - most of the snakes in Michigan are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Roscommon County. And remember, we are a private business, not the County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (989) 366-0260. the County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Roscommon County Wildlife Tip #1:
Canadian Goose Repellent -Types And Do They Work?

The same way summertime represents vacation for everyone else, so also does it represent vacation for the geese. They would land on a property they like and they will adjust perfectly to it so much so that they get used to everything happening around the property. It only takes persuasion for them to leave, lest they would start their colonies there. True, it is beautiful to look at them forming their V shapes in the sky but no one really wants them on their properties.

There are many stated ways to get rid of these pests, many do not work. However, we have put together a few of the best repellents to employ in getting rid of them. They include;

Use liquid goose repellent: This repellent is a spray which has its major composition as grape extract. It is not toxic, however, geese detest the smell as well as the taste. The grape is often mixed with water. Once this is sprayed, not even rain will wash off the smell and it would last for at least three months. The fact that it is not toxic means that it poses no danger to pets, other humans or even the environment. It only makes the geese uncomfortable.
Goose sound repellent: Geese like other pests do not enjoy loud sounds. You could purchase sound machines capable of covering acres of lands. Then speakers should be attached to ensure maximum coverage. It is best to play sounds of predatorial animals to scare the goose away. When they hear the distress call, they automatically move away from the environment.
Stop them from landing: This is also a repelling method that employs the use of decoys that are large enough for the birds to see from the sky. You could use a wolf or coyote since they are dreaded predators. If the bird sees the decoy, it would not land to begin with.
Use dogs to chase them away: This is one of the best if not the best method to rid yourself of these pests. Dogs are very good at chasing away geese and certain breeds are perfect at it. Large companies tend to buy dogs and place on their properties to keep the pests away. There are also companies that are in the business of using canines to ward of geese.

Roscommon County Wildlife Tip #2:


Michigan Wildlife Information:

Michigan State bird: American robin
State mammal: White-tailed deer
State reptile: Painted turtle
State fish: Brook trout

Michigan is a state that tends to get bombarded with snow and storms due to its location in the arms of the Great Lakes. The state is also relatively flat, though it has a nice mix of grassland and forest and some moderate hills. Pine trees are numerous in this part of the country, and they provide shelter for the plentiful animals that must survive a long, cold winter. Most of the state experiences a short, warm summer, but it is often filled with storms coming in off the bordering lakes. Due to the long winters and the cooler overall temperatures, most of the animals in this state are ones that are comfortable surviving in poor conditions when food is covered by feet of snow.

Michigan is densely populated in the regions along the Great Lakes, but it offers a fair share of wilderness areas as well. In these sparsely populated zones you will find large grazing animals like elk, mule deer, and white-tailed deer. These herbivores ultimately draw in predators like cougars, wolves, coyotes, and bears. It's not common for bears to prey on the young of large grazers, but if food is scarce the bears can be agile, dangerous hunters. Such large creatures are not usually the concern of homeowners, even those in rural settings. Wolves and coyotes can be dangerous during seasons when food is limited. Some coyotes will adapt to urban settings. These canines are considered significantly more dangerous than coyotes in the wild. An urban coyote will not hesitate to scale a fence with the purpose of attacking a house pet.

Large animals, though they can be pests, are not as troublesome as smaller creatures like raccoons and skunks. There are a number of animals that will invade a home. Raccoons, opossums, squirrels, rats, and mice are the most frequent offenders. In Michigan, there are also Indiana bats. These small bats are very rare and disturbing one of their roosts-even if it's in your own home-is illegal.

Aquatic animals are also found in this state. River otters are very common, along with beavers and muskrats. Michigan has the water shrew, too, a large semi-aquatic rodent that is active at night near streams and lakes, and only has a lifespan of about 18 months.
