Many of South Carolina'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 South Carolina's wildlife problems, from snake removal to large jobs like commercial bat control, we do it all.

Travelers Rest Wildlife Removal Tip: Is Using Poison on a Squirrel a Good Idea?

If you are being overrun with squirrels around your home, you are probably looking for measures and products you can use to get rid of these critters. It's understandable. Squirrels will get into almost anything. Your garbage can, your attic, your shed. Once in their they will make a big mess. It's something that is commonly told.

In addition, squirrels carry diseases, such as rabies. The last thing you want is to have your dog or cat bitten by one of these critters. That puts your family at risk, and you would very likely have to put your animal down. Something no one wants to do.

I'll Just Kill It with a Poison!

If you go online, you are likely going to find a number of articles that are going to tell you that the best solution to your problem is a poison. You put some out in an area where you know the squirrel is likely to find food and let the poison do the rest.

Maybe you even put some bait out that has poison in it. You can buy products that squirrels will eat that is laced with poison. A few hours or days later and your problem is resolved. Or is it?

Causing More Harm Than Good

While the use of the poison is a permanent solution, it is that poses all kinds of additional problems you may not have considered. These include:

Dead Squirrels

You may not have thought about this, but having dead squirrels around your yard isn't a very appetizing thought. This may attract other kinds of wild animals who see the squirrel as a meal. Even your dog or cat may start to pick it. These animals can become sick, meaning your dog or cat can get sick from eating the dead squirrel.

In addition, it will likely attract all kinds of insects, especially flies and maggots. Think about how attractive that would be to see thousands of flies swarming around your yard eating away at a world. Disgusting is what comes to mind.

Your Dog or Cat

Your dog or cat eating the dead squirrel is not your only concern. They made the poison as well. If the bait is in a location that they can get to, you may have a dead dog or cat who ate this poison.

Your Kids

Your kids may come across the poison as well. In no time, you may have kids who have swallowed this and you are rushing them to the hospital before something serious happens to them.

Much Better Solutions Out There

This is just the tip of the iceberg. You can't even be sure that the squirrels are going to eat. It could be birds, raccoons, other dogs in the neighborhood. Almost any animal may eat that, leaving a trail of death across your yard and into the neighbor's. Very quickly you may find yourself is the most hated person in the neighborhood, so it makes sense to find a better solution. Trust us, there are much better options out there.
