Many of Canada's wild animals have learned to adapt and even thrive in our homes. For example some wildlife have found
that attics make great places to live. Other animals find refuge under homes or porches. Invariably,
these animals cause damage. Rodents, like squirrels and rats, love to chew on electrical wires once in an attic, and this causes a serious fire
hazard. Raccoons can cause serious contamination in an attic with their droppings and parasites. Same goes for bat or bird colonies. We specialize in solving Canada's
wildlife problems, from snake removal to large jobs like commercial bat control, we do it all.
We handle every aspect of wildlife control. We are fully equipped to work on any project, large or small. Some of our services include:
We do not handle dog or cat problems. If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local Ontario county animal services for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, spay & neuter programs, vaccinations, licenses, pet adoption, bite reports, deceased pets, lost pets, local animal complaints and to report neglected or abused animals. There is no free Hamilton animal control for wildlife issues.

What property modifications will keep down rat populations?
Rats are global pests, and people have a hard time dealing with them because they cause a lot of damage to the property inside a building and the building structures as well. They breed fast and are almost indestructible, having evolved to possess amazing survival capabilities. One thing to remember is that they cannot be eradicated. Their population can only be managed by using chemical, biological, and mechanical means.
In this article, we take a look at the suggested property modifications that will help keep rat populations on the down low.
Rats love clutter and garbage more than anything else. Rummaging around the garbage bin for scraps of food is their favourite pastime. Keeping your home clean and free from garbage is a good first step in making your home look less appealing to these pesky creatures.
If your home has many openings to the inside, (barring the doors and windows) like holes, pipes and so forth, blocking the unused openings is a great mod that will help keep the rats out of your home. No opening is small enough. Take all necessary precautions and block every unused opening to your home. If left open, rats can build small habitats in those openings and commence their dirty operations from there. Rats can take that small opening and make it even bigger with the power of their incisors. Block those openings today, if you want a rat-free home.
Modify our windows so that they don't seem like an opening for rats. When rats look at fully opened windows, it looks like an open door to them, and they invite themselves to your home through that window. Reframing your windows is a great way to keep rats out, while still maintaining their core purpose - that is, ventilating your home.
Clear bushes and unwanted growth on your property if you are looking to seriously clamp down on rat population in your home. These bushes are used as cover for the rats to breed and live in them.
If you have any wooden elements on your property, reinforcing them with steel will help keep them secure from the strong teeth of the rats. Rats cannot chew through steel as it is harder than their incisors.
Clearing exposed wiring, and running them through secured pipes and possibly rerouting them underground, can be a great way to keep the rats from chewing through your electrical installations.
Rats are smart creatures and will grab the smallest opportunity to invade your home. Consider using automatic doors which open and close fast, reducing the probability of rats entering your home through your doors.
Use the trusty rat trap. It might be an old contraption, but is very effective when used to capture a rat, which moves very fast and cannot easily be caught with your bare hands (if you are that brave). The trap is also an effective solution when there a small gaps and spaces in your home, where rats can easily retreat to.
What Prices Do We Charge?
Every job is different: the type of animals involved, is it in the attic or the yard, do you need repairs, etc. It's impossible to have set pricing in this industry. Examples MIGHT include:
