Wickford Wildlife Control

Wildlife is the term for a selection of varieties of animal, from mammals like rats, mice and squirrels to other insects such as wasps and bees. While many of these animals do not cause severe harm to homes or crops, some can cause serious harm if they are present in huge numbers. Wildlife control is a complicated procedure that can have major effects on the ecosystem of an area and therefore should only be undertaken with care by experienced experts.

Most wildlife control will start with a survey of the species located in a certain area. This will give you information about which species are most likely causing problems and which may need special care to be taken in the course of the pest control treatment to avoid injuring them. If there are any protected species in the region it is illegal to cause injury or death to them, therefore any pest control treatment must be sensitive to this.

Wildlife control is likely to also require deterrence measures such as secure fencing or the removal of any food source that a pest animal may be using. These measures are more humane than capturing or kiling pests, and may even be considerably more effective as killing pest animals may often not have a substantial impact on the population in an area.
