The best places to find shelter and food are our homes and properties. Wild animals don’t realize they are invading your property, causing stress and damage. They are looking for food, shelter, warmth, or a way to escape natural predators. If you find your uninvited visitor(s) in your garage or attic, or in your bedroom, bathroom, or closet, it’s time to call Minnesota Wild Animal Management.
Minnesota is home to many species of animals
A home inspection is a crucial step in the home-buying process. It will let you know if there are any areas that need attention before closing the deal. The inspections typically include checking the heating and plumbing, as well as checking for mold or roof leaks. Typically, however, these inspections do not include checking for wildlife damage or whether any wildlife are living in the attic. Most home inspectors fail to spot signs of wildlife damage or entry points, which can pose a problem for homebuyers.

One would think that there would be no birds left in Minnesota during the winter months, as it is assumed that all birds fly south for the winter. This puts all birds in California, Texas, and sunny Miami, right?!? No. There are several species of birds that fly into Minnesota (from further north) as the food sources are much more prevalent in the winter months. Some birds don’t migrate and simply remain put. In fact, there are about 15 common species of birds that are found around central Minnesota during the winter
The holidays are here and many of us are hosting gatherings with friends, neighbors and family. You may be preparing to spend many hours cooking and cleaning and preparing your home for gathering. The last thing that you want to have to worry about before or during your next holiday gathering is an unwanted animal crashing the party. Raccoons, bats, snakes, squirrels, mice or birds mean absolutely no harm to us but do not belong in your home
When the temperatures are this low and the weather is this harsh, it is easy to understand why a bird or a squirrel might look for shelter from the cold. After all, a nest cannot possibly be as warm as a cozy garage, an interior wall or attic. In addition to a warm place to sleep, our homes also offer food and water as well, which can be in short supply these days for wild animals in Minnesota. The ground is frozen, and snow covered and that makes it difficult to find anything to eat. So, if you have seen signs of birds, squirrels or other wild animals inside your home, call the team at Minnesota Wild Animal Management ASAP. We will find the invaders, remove them safely, humanly and make sure that they cannot return.
