Why Baltic homes get wildlife

The loam and sandy soil that surrounds Baltic is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what wildlife need to thrive. The the Great Plains, the Black Hills, and river valleys adds harborage, and the semi-arid continental climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Missouri River and lakes see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

Prevention tips for Baltic homeowners

• Trim branches back from the roofline.
• Secure the garbage and the compost.
• Seal the vents and the soffits.
• Close the chimney with a cap.
• Remove the food sources from the yard.

In Baltic, the homes that stay pest-free are the ones that stay on the schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

Raccoons and squirrels use tree branches, utility lines, and rooflines to reach the eaves, then work through the soffits, the vents, and any gap in the roofline. Trimming the branches and sealing the roof edges closes the routes.

Q: Do you remove the animal alive?

Yes. We use legal, humane trapping and exclusion methods, then seal the entry point so the animal and its young cannot return.

Q: Do I need the cleanup after the removal?

Yes, in most cases. The droppings and the nesting carry parasites and odors, and the cleanup is what makes the space safe to use again.
