At Covenant Wildlife Removal, we know your Chelsea, Alabama home is your haven and your castle. Unfortunately, other creatures want to make your comfy space theirs as well. Keeping your home free of rodents takes vigilance and routine maintenance. If you notice a critter anywhere other than outside in the wilderness, it would be best to call Covenant Wildlife Removal quickly before the one sighting becomes an infestation to combat.

How to Keep Animals Out
Once we get the wildlife out of your Chelsea home, we must figure out how they got in, in the first place. Often, gaps in your home along the fascia or reveal, or the lumber where your roof meets your walls, can become chewing points for squirrels and rats. Once theyโve munched their way in, your attic becomes their home.
Additionally, tree branches touching the roof or the home provide the perfect walkway right into your home. Covenant will identify these issues and more, letting you know what needs remediation so the critters donโt get back in.
In addition to repairing damage, a step in wildlife removal in Chelsea is reviewing conditions around your home and property. Locating and remediating what we call attractors is a critical part of keeping wildlife out.
Attractors are things like these:
- Raccoons will often treat your trash can as an all they can eat buffet. Where you store your trash and how you seal the container can reduce the risk of a raccoon infestation.
- Rats and mice can easily nibble their way through torn weather stripping and gaps in window seals and door seals. Make sure those are replaced when they begin to crack.
- Brush and yard overgrowth provides the perfect hiding spot for all types of vermin. Keeping the lawns trimmed and free of rubbish and overgrowth will help deter pests from your yard.
- Ensure your pet food is kept in sealed containers, so the critters donโt decide to make the dog food their new food supply. And remember to pick up dog and cat bowls from outside.
Following these simple guidelines to a yard with no attractors will help the animals try to come back once we have removed them. Call Covenant Wildlife Removal to keep the animals out of your Chelsea home.
Destroy Their Nests
As you know, wild animals are not house-trained. In fact, many wild animals will use their waste to define a space as their territory. If youโve had a bat or raccoon infestation in your attic, youโve got excrement in your attic. And unfortunately, you also have pheromones left there by the animals to keep other animals away.
At this point, you need to remove more than just the waste left behind. The insulation in your attic is likely fouled with urine and fecal matter. This will not only impact the insulationโs effectiveness, but the odor will be a problem on hot days. Not to mention, the area will be a beacon for other critters to go ahead and move on in.
Covenant Wildlife Removal will go into your attic, remove waste, and clear away the damaged insulation. Weโll also clean the space and treat it for odors to neutralize the risk of drawing in more pests.
An Encounter with Wildlife
If you find a snake in your home or yard and believe it to be venomous, contact us immediately. We have humane ways of dealing with snakes of all types. Do not corner a snake in the attempt to trap it. You will give it no choice but to attack. If you lose track of where the snake went, remember snakes like to hide in warm, dark spots. Closets, cabinets, basements, and behind appliances are likely hiding spaces. Leave it alone and give us a call.
In fact, most wildlife has some sort of defense mechanism you do not want to encounter. So give yourself and break and call Covenant Wildlife for immediate removal and remediation.
