Signs of Wildlife Activity Under Your Home
How to Spot a Problem Before It Gets Worse
Most animal intrusions go unnoticed—until they leave behind damage or odor. Crawl spaces are dark, quiet, and often moist, making them ideal homes for critters. Animals chew wires, tear insulation, and can even weaken floor supports.
Watch for these signs:
- Scratching or scurrying noises, especially at night
- Torn insulation or shredded vapor barriers
- Animal droppings or urine odors
- Entry holes near siding, vents, or crawl space doors
- Uneven flooring or unexpected drafts
These are more than minor annoyances—they’re signals of structural risks and potential health hazards.
What Critter Management Includes
A Safer, Smarter Alternative to Pest Control
Unlike traditional pest control, critter management targets larger nuisance wildlife—not bugs or rodents. We don’t use sprays or chemicals. Instead, we offer a comprehensive service that includes:
- Inspection and species identification
- Humane animal removal
- Sealing off access points
- Crawl space clean-up (when necessary)
- Prevention recommendations
Because we’re also crawl space and foundation experts, we go beyond removal to address the conditions that made your home inviting to wildlife in the first place.
Why Critters Target Alabama Crawl Spaces
Shelter, Moisture, and Nesting Ground
Alabama’s climate creates perfect conditions for animal intrusions. Warm seasons, humidity, and loose crawl space access make it easy for critters to settle in—especially during:
- Fall and winter (to stay warm)
- Spring (for nesting)
- After storms or flooding
From raccoons to bats, wildlife finds crawl spaces to be ideal shelters. That’s why it’s so important to keep them sealed and dry.
Long-Term Damage and Health Risks
It’s Not Just a Noisy Nuisance
Wildlife under your home can cause serious issues. Chewed wires, torn insulation, moisture buildup, and even compromised floor joists are all common results. On top of that, droppings can carry bacteria and parasites that impact air quality inside your home.
Removing the animal is just step one. We help prevent future issues by:
- Reinforcing crawl space entry points
- Repairing torn barriers or insulation
- Recommending moisture control solutions
- Advising on long-term prevention strategies
