New Year, New Resolve: Evicting Nuisance Wildlife in 2024

As we usher in the New Year, many of us embark on a journey of self-improvement through resolutions.

While the usual suspects may include fitness goals or career aspirations, there’s another resolution we want you to think about – taking charge of the wildlife that has made your home its own.

If raccoons, squirrels, bats, or other unwelcome guests have turned your residence into their domain, it’s time to make 2024 the year of reclaiming your space with the help of Frontline Animal Removal.

If you’ve had an ongoing problem with squirrels, raccoons, bats or groundhogs and do make the resolution that 2024 is the year you’ll make your home nuisance-animal-free, good for you!

This first post of the year is dedicated to all the homeowners in the Akron / Canton / Kent Area who have had lived with nuisance animal problems for a while (many people do, you are not alone) and for one reason or another have decided to do something about it.

The Need for Wildlife Eviction

Ignoring the presence of nuisance wildlife on your property can lead to a host of issues. These creatures are not just uninvited guests; they bring with them the potential for structural damage, health risks, and an overall disruption to your peace of mind. From property damage to everyday annoyance, the consequences of allowing wildlife to call your home theirs can be far-reaching.

Enough is Enough?

Even though we are entering the heart of winter it is a great time of year for squirrel and raccoon removal as there are no babies present right now and these animals are active in winter.

Winter is also the time of year we spend the most amount of time indoors which might make us hyper-aware of animal noises.  Tracks in the snow on the roof can also give us a better idea that critters are up there using the structure.  Because of these circumstances, some animal problems that we’ve been able to ignore for a while really start to wear on us.

Some of the best examples of this are clients who’ve had squirrels living in soffits and other outside voids.  Because the squirrels weren’t actually in the walls or attic yet, these clients gave the squirrels a free pass for quite a while.  But, as they are awoken on a regular basis by squirrels instead of their alarm clocks, the tolerance for the squirrels ends.

Other squirrel removal resolutions are uttered because of the habits of the little understood flying squirrel.  These nocturnal animals are usually more problematic for homeowners in the winter because they congregate communally for warmth.  One flying squirrel, because they are so small, usually goes undetected.  Many flying squirrels, active at night, definitely disturbs those long winter naps and gets homeowner’s ire up.
