Common Wildlife Issues in Thousand Oaks

Wildlife can cause significant problems when they decide to share your living space. Animals like raccoons and opossums are drawn to attics, crawl spaces, and areas under decks seeking shelter. Identifying the problem early is key to preventing widespread damage.

You may need professional help if you notice:

• Strange Noises: Scratching, scurrying, or thumping sounds coming from attics, ceilings, or inside walls, often at night.
• Property Damage: Torn ductwork, damaged insulation, chewed electrical wires, holes in siding, or raided trash cans.
• Yard Disruption: Dug-up lawns or gardens, often a sign of skunks or raccoons searching for grubs.
• Droppings: Sighting animal droppings or noticing strong, unpleasant odors in or around your home.

These signs indicate an active animal presence. Attempting to handle these animals on your own can be difficult and risky. A trained specialist can identify the animal and find out how it's getting in.

The Importance of Professional Wildlife Control

Dealing with wildlife is not a simple DIY task. These animals can be unpredictable, and improper handling poses risks. Professional removal is essential for protecting both your property and your family from potential harm.

Wildlife can cause serious structural damage by chewing through wires or destroying insulation. More importantly, many animals carry parasites like ticks and fleas, or diseases that can be transmitted to humans and pets.

Only a trained and licensed technician understands how to handle different species correctly. They have the right equipment to manage the situation and, most importantly, can identify and secure all entry points to prevent a future re-infestation.
