Many of Alabama'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 Alabama'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 Tuscaloosa county animal services for assistance.

Tuscaloosa Wildlife Removal Tip: Do squirrels make good pets? They're cute and curry and definitely funny to watch for a few minutes but do squirrels make good pets? No, not really. Firstly, they can carry and transmit the rabies virus. It's rare for a squirrel to pass rabies onto a human or a household cat or dog but it can happen. You also might not be able to tell from looking at a squirrel whether or not it could be sick, especially if it is newly infected with the virus, and because of that, it's probably best that you keep your distance from any wild animal, definitely this one. It's not just the animal itself you need to worry about either - there are disease threats in the urine and poop of the animal and obviously you're not going to want to that in your home. If you're having a squirrel as a pet, you'll keep it in a cage (I'm assuming), and this will mean having the waste material right there in front of you. With some pretty nasty diseases associated with it - leptospirosis, for example, it's definitely not something you're going to want to have around your children. Plus this is a WILD animal - one with sharp teeth and claws. If you corner this animal, it will go into defense / attack mode and that means it will attack you, your family, other pets in your home. It's a natural instinct for most wild animals so you would be foolish for thinking you should train a squirrel to not react like that. In short, no squirrels do not make for good pets!

Tuscaloosa Animal News Clip: Wildlife trapping On Borrowed Time

Wildlife trapping in the state of Alabama started on Saturday, July 16, 2006. I was eager to be out in the woods, but I did not say that to my wife, Molly. She absolutely hates it. She doesn't have the opportunity to spend much time with me, let alone see me during raccoon wildlife trapping season. She knows that I love to be outdoors with cage trap in hand, and being a police officer, I have limited time to go wildlife trapping. Every opportunity I have to be out in the woods is important me. What a great way to control wildlife in Tuscaloosa!

Employed with the city, I work the 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. night shift. At the end of my shift, I sometimes take my daughter to school and then go back home and rest for a few hours before hitting the woods. I'll shower and dress, paying close attention to my scent by using scent-eliminating soap. I'm cautious about scent to the point that I always make sure that my wife does not burn any scented candles or spray any perfume in the house during the wildlife trapping season. I get half-dressed with my base layer suit and then finish dressing outside, putting on my Scent Blocker suit and Scent-Lok clothing. Oh, one can feel the excitement in the air. Read on for more information about animal control in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

In the early part of the season, I only saw yearling male raccoons. I have a strict, self-imposed rule to only capture a male raccoon of eight pounds or more. On the 29th of July, I went through my routine and then noticed a warm front was moving into the area. I checked the temperature where I was to animal capture that evening. It was going to be 47 degrees and cloudy. I knew that it was getting close to the chase phase of the rut, and male raccoons would be moving looking for food. Most locals agree that this is the way to do it.

I chose to be in a trapping ground I had set up along the ridge, knowing it would be a great chance to intercept a male raccoon seeking female raccoons. I drove about six miles to a place off of the road. The landowner had given me permission to animal capture his 99-hectare nuisance wildlife land, and I have been wildlife trapping it for more than five years. These woods, surrounded by grapevines, cornfields, pine trees and heavy brush, are an excellent place to hold big raccoon, especially female raccoons. While most people think the raccoon exact number of rodents is stable, some say it needs reduction. Despite this there is no free Tuscaloosa animal services for wildlife in Tuscaloosa County.

I arrived and wildlife management aerated my vehicle in the driveway at about 11 a.m. and started into the woods, walking a gaswell roadway. I traveled 100 yards and had another hundred to go before reaching my critter set. Heading toward the ridge, I approached a heavily used raccoon trail that was running toward my critter set. Upon reaching the trail, I took out my scent drag and soaked it with critter-in-season scent lure I had purchased from a local raccoon habitat. Then I sprayed the bottoms of my rubber boots with raccoon dander. By most critter experts' estimates, this is a fair method.

I reached my critter set and walked another 20 yards, making a half circle toward the critter set. It was 10 minutes after noon when I was settled in. I knew that it would be awhile before seeing a raccoon. I blew twice on a female raccoon call to see if maybe a male raccoon was close by. If it was, it might just come over to investigate. It was about 1:47 p.m. when I heard sounds of raccoon walking. I immediately stood up and turned to my left where I had placed the scent. I noticed a raccoon walking with its nose on the earth, coming toward my critter set. It was a male raccoon and it was closing the distance between us fast. The male raccoon got closer and I could see it was drunk and angry. Most Tuscaloosa pest control companies that we interviewed found this interesting.

As the raccoon came within 10 yards, I placed my pin just behind the shoulder and waited for a good opening. My trapping ground is above grapevines that grow wild, clinging to other trees, making it look like a canopy. Having a raccoon that close and holding a cage trap at full draw takes a lot of patience when you're waiting for a raccoon to step into an opening. When the male raccoon finally stepped out, I released my baited trap only to have it hit a branch, deflecting the baited trap and nearly miss. The tension is thick on a trapping job like this one.

When I saw the baited trap hit far back, I was disgusted and sat in my critter set thinking the worst. Suddenly I heard loud breathing and air blows from the raccoon I had just trapped. I could see it critter setting just 40 yards away having difficulty. This is when I was glad to see a bad trapped was not so bad after all. For more information on the methodology, read on.

The raccoon finally met its fate and was in the trap. Knowing that my raccoon was in, I began to descend. As I reached the woodland floor, I saw another male raccoon following the same scent trail toward me. The 4-pounder noticed my male raccoon lying down not moving. It walked up to it, lowered its head to scent check for a few seconds and continued on its way following the scent trail. I could not wait any longer, so I touched the earth and the male raccoon stopped and looked in my direction. It was a staring match, and the raccoon was winning only because I wanted to get to my raccoon. After a few minutes, the 4-pounder went on its way and gave me the opportunity to take a better look at my gather. Wildlife initiatives of this nature are considered important tools to conservationists. At least, this is what Tuscaloosa extermination companies think.
