Land Development And Impact On Wild Animals
If you look, you may notice that our local area is changing. There is more land development than ever before, new housing developments, neighborhoods, shopping areas, schools and restaurants. This may be exciting in many ways for attracting people to the Twin Cities and pumping more money into our local economy. However, there are some unintended consequences as well. The wooded land, before it was developed, was home to many different wildlife and creatures including birds, squirrels, bats, snakes, raccoons, and many others. So, where do you think that these creatures go when their habitats are turned upside down? They move into your home.
Let’s face it, many animals are quite cute! You might be tempted to let them hang out around your property because of that. However, wildlife is called wild for a reason, and there are risks involved if you choose to forego wildlife removal. At Minnesota Wildlife Management, we can take care of your wildlife removal needs and provide wildlife prevention services and tips. Most wildlife, cute or not, should be encouraged to go elsewhere to avoid problems.
Unlike birds, most animals do not migrate to the south for the winter. The same creatures that can be a nuisance in the warmer months are the same wild animals that can cause damage to property and buildings during the winter months. It is important to know what to look for to determine if animals have invaded your home seeking warmth. There are some things you can do to prevent an invasion from taking place.
For many of us, having a wild animal in your home is uncomfortable for many reasons. First, they can carry disease, can be unpredictable when cornered and can nest and leave droppings that can cause damage to your property. Another reason that having an unwelcome critter in your home is not desired is because you probably imagine that the only way to safely get them out is to kill them. Even if you know that you do not want to share space with that wild animal(s), you may not want to be responsible for their death.
An unexpected encounter with a wild animal on your property is something that keeps homeowners up at night thinking about it! Whether it is a snake, raccoon, bat, mouse, etc., these are animals you would prefer to reside away from your home. At Minnesota Wild Animal Management, we are here to help you when this unexpected encounter happens. We can humanely remove these unwanted animal(s) from your property. Our work doesn’t stop there! We can also help prevent this encounter from happening again in the future.
Have you gone to take the trash out at night recently and come into contact with a raccoon on your property? These animals are always on the hunt for scraps, trash, etc. They are very destructive animals that can cause damage and create a mess on your property. The last thing you should do as a homeowner is to try to remove this raccoon from your property on your own. If you have a raccoon hanging around your Minnesota property, reach out to our team at Minnesota Wild Animal Management and take advantage of our safe and humane raccoon removal services.
