Not sure what critter may have gotten into your home or business? Here are some common nuisance animals and signs you may have them:
These creatures are prevalent here in the Houston area and can cause significant damage to your property. You may see them entering or exiting through holes in your roof or siding, at dawn or dusk. If you notice bat guano (feces/droppings) in your attic, or on windows, siding/brick, you probably have bats hanging around. Bats can carry rabies and parasites. Avoid touching (or breathing in an enclosed area near) bat droppings due to health risks.Bat guano has spores of fungus that can cause airborne disease in confinded spaces. Call Nolan Wildlife for expert bat removal and decontamination.
Although these animals may seem cute and cuddly, they can cause significant damage if they take up residence in your home or business. The eaves and attic spaces are particularly appealing to them as protected nesting area. Signs of a squirrel infestation include gnawing, scratching, and scurrying sounds, especially in the early morning or during the day. In addition to the noise, squirrels can be a hazard by harming electrical wiring, insulation, and even gnawing through siding. For help, it's recommended to reach out to NOLAN WILDLIFE CONTROL.
These animals resemble oversized mice with elongated snouts and bare tails, reaching lengths of up to 3 feet and weighing between 4 to 7 pounds on average. They are known to construct burrows beneath decks or within attics. Opossums can introduce parasites and unpleasant odors into your home, and they have the potential to chew through wiring, insulation, and wooden beams. If cornered, they may bite humans or pets and are capable of transmitting rabies. For a hassle-free removal, contact Nolan Wildlife Control, LLC.
Mice and rats, similar to other animals mentioned, harbor parasites such as fleas, transmit diseases, and leave contaminated droppings in residences. They are usually active at night and can cause significant property damage by chewing through electrical wiring, which may lead to electrical fires. To prevent such damage, consider reaching out to Nolan Wildlife Control for help!
While many fear snake bites, it's important to note that not all snakes are venomous. Black snakes and garden snakes, for instance, are harmless and can help control rodent populations. Nevertheless, it is advisable to avoid close encounters or disturbing any snake. Venomous species like rattlesnakes, copperheads, and water moccasins can be identified by their triangular heads and cat-like, slit-shaped pupils. Snakes exhibiting these characteristics are typically venomous. For your safety, keep a distance from all snakes. Should you encounter a venomous snake, contact the experts at Nolan Wildlife Control for safe removal.
Noisy and nocturnal, raccoons are known to scavenge through garbage cans and feast on gardens that are tended with care. They might choose to nest in your attic during the day or block your chimney. Nolan Wildlife Control specializes in the humane removal of raccoons from residential or commercial properties. Call us today we would be happy to help!
If you encounter skunks on your lawn or patio at night, it's best to give them space. Skunks can carry parasites and diseases, and they are known for their distinctive odor. If your pet has a run-in with a skunk, be ready to remove the smell. A mixture of hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and dish soap is recommended for deodorizing your pets. For professional skunk removal services, call Nolan Wildlife Control.

The bird control experts at Nolan Wildlife Control are skilled in removing pigeons and other birds, ensuring your health is protected, and keeping your property free from unsightly droppings.
Coyotes, while generally not a danger to humans, can become aggressive if they feel threatened, particularly towards children. These animals may be drawn to residential areas by accessible food sources such as garbage cans or outdoor pet food, and in some cases, may pose a risk to pets. To reduce the likelihood of an encounter, it is advisable to make noise when walking in areas known for coyote activity, especially during nighttime. Should a coyote be spotted near one's residence, or if there is evidence of their presence, it is recommended to contact a professional service like Nolan Wildlife for safe removal.
The nutria, also known as the nutria-rat, is a large semi-aquatic herbivorous rodent originally native to South America. It was introduced to North America by fur ranchers and has since become an invasive species. Nutria exhibits destructive feeding and burrowing behaviors that consistently damage native plants. They also burrow through dams and levee systems, potentially compromising these structures. Additionally, nutria can damage human-made structures such as lakefront piers, homes, wires in pond fountains, and even vehicle tires with their gnawing. While nutria resemble beavers, they are slightly smaller and possess a rat-like tail rather than the beaver’s flattened, paddle-like tail.
Aside from health and safety risks to people and pets, armadillos are fervent diggers, and will destroy the root systems of certain plants and your entire landscaping if you do not do something to stop them. Excessive armadillo digging can also cause problems with foundations, as well as other structural safety issues like large, concealed holes in the ground. To make matters worse, they are well known to mark their territory, but not just with urine; they also mark properties with their feces and excretions produced by scent glands on the eyelids, nose, and feet.Nolan Wildlife deploys highly strategic trap placement for Armadillo Removal. These animals tend to roam more frequently during the evening and at night, making it increasingly difficult to detect and deter. Consequently, armadillo removal can prove to be a challenging task, one that is best left to industry professionals.

Today Texas has over two million feral hogs which are responsible for $52 million dollars in damage per year when they root up land and crops. Feral hogs also cause damage to water retention and drainage areas like levees, canals, and dam. The growing population of feral hogs have been killing, consuming, and out competing many native plants and animal species. Hog’s rooting and wallowing destroy wildlife habitat, pollute water sources, and prevent forest regeneration. Female hogs, known as sows, reach sexual maturity at the age of 8 months of age. They are capable of birthing two litters per year, each litter containing up to 14 piglets. Their ability to reproduce at such a rapid rate have made controlling them very hard, despite countless efforts from farmers, ranchers, and the NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation Service).

Nolan Wildlife Control, LLC offers professional mole removal services to protect your property.
Termites are a group of detritophagous eusocial insects which consume a variety of decaying plant material, generally in the form of wood, leaf litter, and soil humus. They are distinguished by their moniliform antennae and the soft-bodied and often unpigmented worker caste for which they have been commonly termed "white ants"; however, they are not ants, to which they are only distantly related. About 2,972 extant species are currently described, 2,105 of which are members of the family Termitidae.
