After all animals are removed, entry points are sealed with heavy-gauge hardware cloth, metal flashing, or foam to prevent re-entry.

Wildlife Removal FAQ for Boise Homeowners

How often should Boise homeowners get wildlife removal?
Given Boise's high-desert climate with low humidity (avg 38%) cracking caulk and wood, most homeowners benefit from wildlife removal at least once a year. Summer wildfire smoke exterior cleaning (ash on roofs and decks) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Boise most need wildlife removal?
Ranch and tri-level homes from 1970s–1990s in established Boise neighborhoods and Craftsman bungalows in North End and Hyde Park are the most common home types in Boise and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How do I know if I have animals in my attic?
Scratching, scurrying, or thumping sounds — especially at night (raccoons, opossums) or early morning (squirrels). Odors, visible droppings, and finding disturbed insulation are also signs.
Can I remove wildlife myself?
Some wildlife (groundhogs, squirrels) can be handled with store-bought traps. However, raccoons can be aggressive, bats are protected by law in most states and require permitted specialists, and improper handling poses disease and legal risks.
Why can't bats just be killed?
Bats are protected by state and federal law in most areas due to their ecological importance. They must be excluded rather than killed. Exclusion must be done outside of maternity season (typically June–August) when flightless pups are present.
Do I need to clean my attic after raccoon removal?
Often yes. Raccoons create latrines in attics, and raccoon roundworm (Baylisascaris) is present in their feces. Contaminated insulation must be properly removed and replaced.
