When you think of snakes, what is your first reaction? Some people find these amphibious creatures to be fascinating. Others may react with terror. The fact that the vast majority of snakes found living in Minnesota are nonvenomous and quite harmless does little to calm jittery nerves if that snake is nesting inside of your home. This sounds like a job for snake removal experts from Minnesota Wild Animal Management LLC. One call can begin
Mice are unwelcome guests in just about any home. However, in the winter months in Minnesota, they look for warmth and food because that is so difficult to find outdoors. If they can find even the smallest crack or hole, mice will make their way inside your home. This is unnerving for a homeowner for many reasons. Mice carry disease and can cause serious damage in your home if not taken care of quickly. The team at Minnesota Wild Animal Management LLC. can help you prevent mice from entering and get rid of them if they do.
Squirrels, especially gray squirrels, are common throughout Minnesota but specifically the twin cities and the metro area. Squirrels are members of the rodent family and are highly arboreal. They tend to be very highly active in the summer and in the fall where they scavenge for food for the winter.
Tree squirrels generally nest in trees in wooded areas. Since Minnesota has a ton of wooded areas that we keep building into, it is forcing squirrels to look for alternative places to live and therefore housing structures are a great choice. The most common invaded areas are garages and attics. Squirrels reach these areas by chewing holes in the exterior of the structure and typically nest, store food or both. Their activity is usually noisy and heard by anyone in close proximity.
The vast majority of the snakes in the state of Minnesota are harmless. Only two of the seventeen species of snakes are poisonous – the Timber Rattlesnake and the Eastern Massasauga snake. These two species have only very rare encounters with humans and live almost exclusively in the southeastern part of the state. However, it is very likely that if you find a snake it your home, you may not care whether it is harmless or poisonous – you will simply want it removed from your home immediately.
Did you recently open your pantry up and find an unexpected visitor? Did you notice a mouse racing across your kitchen floor late at night? The bad news is that if there is one mouse in your home, there could be others that you just haven’t found. A mouse can invade your home through the tiniest spaces. In fact, they can enter through a hole as small as a marble. Ignoring the fact that a mouse is in your house is the worst thing you can do. Rather than trying to catch the mice
