Fun fact: A raccoon's hands are so nimble they can remove a coin as thin as a dime from a shirt pocket, without even bending its fingers.
Indications: You hear clawing, scratching, scurrying, bumping or flapping originating from inside your walls, floors, ceilings or attic. You may notice fecal droppings in the garage, breezeway or the attic. Gnawed marks, scratch marks and smudge marks on siding, breezeways and tree trunks are other indications of animal activity.
Inspection: The first step is to have an HPM wildlife specialist conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify the source of the noise and extent of the activity. During this process our wildlife specialist will also assess current and potential entry points that require attention.

Plan of action: Begin by calling our office and scheduling an appointment with one of our HPM certified professionals. Once at your home we will conduct an inspection and evaluation analysis of your home.
An HPM analysis will:
  • Reduce the time to control and start the elimination process.
  • Correctly identify the wildlife presents at your home.
  • Possibly reveal other non-related pest issues you may not be
    aware of.
  • Reveal what can be done to reduce the probability of the wildlifes' return.
  • Provide you with useful homeowner tips and suggestions.
  • Provide specific costs relative to your home and your wildlife problem(s)
To schedule your appointment call: 1-888-BUGSHPM or 281-376-3901
