Many of Colorado'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 Colorado'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 Eagle county animal services for assistance.

There is no free Western Colorado animal control for wildlife issues.

Western Colorado Wildlife Removal Tip: How to get opossums out from under a shed or porch: If you have opossums living under your shed or porch, you need to first work out how they're getting under there to eliminate the problem. If you get rid of the animal but don't seal the holes or damage, that animal will come back and if that one doesn't, it'll be another wild animal and next time, it could be a raccoon or something even bigger. Bigger usually means more destruction, especially to your precious home. You should first start by opossum-proofing your home or rather, your back yard, and you'll need to start by having a good old clear-up. Garden debris makes the perfect hiding spot for a wide range of critters, so wood piles, leaf piles, compost heaps and trees should be cut back and cleaned up to make them more wild animal safe. You'll need to get rid of anything that offers a hiding spot - this could be what is attracting these animals. Next you should take a peek at the holes the animal is using to get under your porch or shed, filling the cracks and holes and repairing any damage with material that is strong enough to withstand and the strong teeth and claws of these animals. You must make sure that the animal itself and any babies are removed before you start to seal anything up otherwise you'll have a dead animal (or family of) rotting away causing a stench.

Western Colorado Animal News Clip: Experts invited to weigh in on rodent plan

Western Colorado -A new report in Western Colorado recommends extending the animal control season at Colorado Golf Course in Western Colorado for fall steel cage trap and arrow season starting Sept. 9 and extending wildlife management at the wildlife management area in Western Colorado to include steel cage trap and arrow season that starts at the end of October. At Sherwood Woods and Thompson wildlife management areas in Western Colorado, the report recommends reducing the schedule from 11 days over two consecutive weeks to eight days over three weeks. Wildlife management would be allowed on three consecutive Mondays, three consecutive Wednesdays and two consecutive Saturdays at Hartshorne Woods. At Thompson wildlife management area, wildlife management would be allowed on three consecutive Tuesdays, three consecutive Fridays and two consecutive Saturdays. Read on for more information about animal control in Western Colorado, Colorado.

When wildlife management is allowed on consecutive days, rodent will change their pattern and move out of a wildlife management area, Critter Catcher Chris announced. The wildlife management area system is trying to increase the harvest at Thompson wildlife management area and Hartshorne Woods by allowing the rodent to settle into normal patterns between wildlife management days, she announced. Despite this there is no free Western Colorado animal services for wildlife in Eagle County.

The coyote and fox exact number of rodents grows about 40 percent a year without any management plan, according to information from the county canine control and rescue area system. "The goal is to decrease the ecological impact on the forest that one species is having," Critter Catcher Chris announced. "coyote and fox are eating the plants that are providing homes to the bugs that the birds eat. It has a snowball effect as we go along." Areas in nine county canine control and rescue areas opened for the first time during the 2004-05 coyote and fox season to exterminating companies and was expanded to include portions of two additional canine control and rescue areas the following year. Most Western Colorado pest control companies that we interviewed found this interesting.

The latest report recommends some changes in the canine control and rescue season at various canine control and rescue areas. Critter trapper participation and harvest numbers were extremely low at Rodent Wrangler Western Colorado canine control and rescue area in Upper Western Colorado for two years in a row, according to the canine control and rescue area system's annual report on the rodent capture. As a result, the report recommends allowing canine control and rescue during the six-day firearm season in December, instead of two weeks in January. The canine control and rescue area will be closed to other uses during the rodent capture. At least, this is what Western Colorado extermination companies think.
