While many people are comfortable living alongside our little wild friends, there are solutions available when they become a nuisance instead of a neighbor.
Solution 1. Eliminate the attraction – Don’t leave pet food outside because it attracts wildlife. Do not put out your trash the night before trash pickup day. Also, seal the holes and small entryways into your home because some animals can squeeze through a hole the size of a quarter.
Solution 2. Increase the unattractiveness – Wild animals like to den under foundations, sheds, and decks. Tennis balls soaked in ammonia will often irritate their sense of smell, making the area undesirable to them. Moth balls scattered under decks and shrubbery will also help deter feral cats and opossums.
Solution 3. Remove and relocate the nuisance animal – As a last resort, nuisance wild animals may be captured in humane live-animal traps, removed and relocated.

DISEASE PREVENTION: Certain species of animals can carry harmful diseases like rabies and tuleremia. The Nine-Banded Armadillo can carry leprosy and every mammal is also a carrier for fleas and ticks, and will bring them into the yard of your property. Rabbits and armadillos can cause damage to lawns and gardens. Squirrels can seriously damage roofs and attic spaces. Last, but not least, raccoons prefer attics, chimneys, crawlspaces and outbuildings for nesting. They will tear through siding, fascia and soffits to get into your private residence or commercial building. Once inside, they will contaminate the area, introduce parasites and insects, and contaminate the site with urine and feces. Raccoons are also a major carrier of the rabies virus.
