A – Raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and opossums all dig up lawns. Q – Why are they digging up my lawn? A – The main reason for wildlife to dig up the lawn is because there are grubs in the lawn. And wildlife will eat the grubs. Q – How can I stop them from digging? A – The only way is to trap the wildlife and remove them. They will not stop digging night after night until all the grubs are gone. Q – Is there a way to get rid of the grubs? A – There is no effective way that actually gets rid of the grubs. Some people have their lawn treated to kill grubs. Most treatments are not effective and cause more problems to the lawn. My opinion is that people that have their lawn treated for grubs have more problems with wildlife than others that don’t have their lawn treated. Judging by my experience and talking to many clients over the last fifteen years.

Other than causing damage, they can also carry disease such as rabies, raccoon roundworm, and salmonella. They will leave droppings and urinate pretty much anywhere, making the spread of disease that much more likely, especially if you have children or pets. Raccoons will generally avoid confrontation with humans but can attack and injure family pets. But don’t let that fool you, they can even attack humans if they are cornered or feel their raccoon babies are threatened.

A Mouse infestation starts small but grows quickly, causing a entire host of issues for homeowners. Many people underestimate the dangers of mice in their homes, especially when the pests remain hidden in attics and walls. This article explains why you should act fast when you hear mice in your home and how professional mice control services can protect your home and family. The Warning Signs of Mice in Your Attic Before discussing the dangers, let's identify the common pest signs that mice have made their way into your home or attic: Noises That Indicate Mice Activity Scratching sounds in walls or ceilings Light scurrying noises, especially at night Squeaking or chirping sounds Rustling noises in insulation Visual Evidence of Mice Droppings (small, dark pellets) near food sources or nesting areas Gnaw marks on wood, wires, or insulation Nesting materials like shredded paper, fabric, or insulation Footprints or tail marks in dusty areas Actual mouse sightings (which often means a larger infestation) If you notice these signs, you likely have mice in your attic or walls.

Among these unwanted winter guests, skunks present particularly challenging problems for local Windsor residents. Understanding why these creatures seek refuge under your home and how to address the situation humanely and effectively is essential for maintaining your property's integrity and your family's peace of mind. Understanding Skunk Behavior in Winter Months Skunks don't fully hibernate, but they do enter a state called torpor during the coldest winter months in Essex County Ontario. During torpor, these wild animals become less active, their body temperature drops, and they sleep for extended periods to conserve energy when food is scarce. This semi-hibernation state makes finding suitable winter shelter absolutely critical for their survival. It's important to note that skunks are nocturnal, typically foraging for food at night and resting during daylight hours. Additionally, skunks are poor climbers, which is why they typically seek shelter at ground level rather than in trees or elevated structures. In the wild, skunks would naturally seek shelter in hollow logs, abandoned burrows, or natural rock formations. However, urban and suburban development throughout Windsor and Essex County has significantly reduced these natural habitat options, forcing these local wildlife species to adapt by seeking alternatives—often underneath human structures or in crawl spaces of residential properties. Why Skunks Choose Your Property in Winter Several factors make the space beneath your home, basement, or garage particularly attractive to... --- ### Common Pests Get Into Your Home During the Winter Months and How to Control Them - Published: 2025-02-07 - Modified: 2025-02-27 - URL: https://www.protrap.ca/pests-in-your-home/ Winter is the season of ice, snow, and chilly temperatures, but you also have to worry about pests that invade the home because they're seeking warmth, shelter, and food.

Here is a complete timeline of what happens after an animal dies: Right After Death Whether it's a bird or a mammal, its muscles relax immediately after death, causing fluids to evacuate from the bladder and intestines. Blood circulation ceases, leading to a complete bodily shutdown. Since the organs fail to function after death, the dead animal's eyes gradually turn cloudy, and its tongue slowly sticks out of the mouth. 12 Hours After the Death of an Animal 12 hours after death, the muscles start to contract, causing the animal to stiffen. This process can happen much earlier in birds and smaller mammals.

Finding a Professional Pest Control Service with Proven Experience Does experience matter in the pest control industry? The short answer is yes. In fact, there are certain things about pest control specialists that people should be aware of. It's not the same thing to say that a pest control technician is certified versus being insured, for example. Some companies want to play around with that when they are not, in fact, fully certified but have managed to insure themselves so that they are not liable for damages. Customer reviews can be a good way to weed out some of the companies that may not be great options.

The European hornet is the only species of hornet established in Canada. It lives in the Woodlands of Southern Ontario and can even be found flying around Windsor. Resembling oversized yellow jackets, they measure around ¾ to 1½ inches in length and construct nests in the ground or hollow trees. The bald-faced hornet is native to Canada, but is actually a species of yellowjacket, very closely related to a paper wasp. Featuring a body with black and yellow blotches and white markings on the face and abdomen, these species of wasps build massive gray nests resembling basketballs, often hanging high in trees. Recently, a new hornet, known as the Asian giant hornet, made its way to the west coast, around British Columbia garnering significant attention. Dubbed the "murder hornet," they viciously attack honey bee colonies, decapitating the bees, consuming their honey, and stealing the larvae to feed their young. These hornets stand as the giants of the wasp world, measuring around 2 inches in length. In Japan, they are referred to as sparrow wasps due to their resemblance to small birds during flight. Their sting is highly painful to humans, and approximately 50 unfortunate individuals fall victim to their venom's deadly neurotoxin each year. Wasps While various solitary wasps exist, such as digger wasps and mud daubers, most wasps exhibit social behavior, living in colonies of a queen, female... --- ### Your Home’s Most Common Animal Entry Points - Published: 2023-06-14 - Modified: 2023-06-14 - URL: https://www.protrap.ca/most-common-animal-entry-points/ Wild animals see your home as a sanctuary. It’s dry, warm and offers the perfect shelter for them during harsh weather. These animals often find the dark and small spaces in your garage, attic, basement, and walls as an ideal new habitat, particularly if access to food is readily available. Most places around your home can become common animal entry points for pests and wildlife. However, different points will host various pests and require various repairs to be sealed up. Below are some of the most typical and potential entry points you might find and how you can address them to avoid future infestations. Chimney Bats, squirrels, and raccoons love this point of entry into your home. Cracks in your roof are not the only way these pests can enter from overhead. Some wild animals opt for a more direct route to your attic space, like the chimney. If an animal is pregnant it may even rip off a roof vent, to have a safe place to have its babies. Fortunately, the easiest way to deal with this problem is to cover your chimney's top with some fine wire metal mesh, or galvanized steel mesh. That covering will enable smoke to exit the fireplace without letting any pests in. Dryer Exhaust Vents & Utility Pipes If you have ever watched any old cartoons, you are familiar with the image of a mouse hole at the bottom of the wall. Naturally every home has a few entry points, but not in... --- ### What is Humane Wildlife Removal? - Published: 2023-05-29 - Modified: 2023-05-29 - URL: https://www.protrap.ca/what-is-humane-wildlife-removal/ Windsor's residential areas are constantly expanding into the natural habitats of raccoons, opossums, groundhogs, and squirrels, humans are encountering more and more wildlife.

Urban Wildlife From bats and raccoons to skunks and groundhogs, there are countless wild animals that populate residential areas across Canada. While spotting different animal species as they cross your yard can be a fun and exciting experience, wildlife behavior is rarely cohesive within the structures of human life. Residential properties and yards are not built to accommodate the various forms of wildlife in Ontario Canada and, as a result, the presence of unwanted wildlife in your attic or on your property can lead to several costly issues. Whether it's opossums ripping up roofing tiles to build a nest in someone's attic or raccoons scavenging through people's garbage cans, there are countless risks for both animal and human life.

While not known for causing structural damage, spiders are an irritating nuisance, especially during the warmer months of the year when they start to breed. Annually spraying your property can keep these creepy crawlies out of your living space and allow you to enjoy the summer months without your home becoming overrun with spider webs and nests. A professional spider control service can save you from walking into to many webs. Household Spiders There are several different spider species that are commonly found in Canadian homes: The House Spider Typically, homeowners will uncover the common house spider taking advantage of their crawl spaces or attics. These household spaces are the perfect hiding spots for spiders to set up their webs because they are warm and infrequently disturbed by humans or pets. The color of these spiders can vary from dark brown to white, and they have visible markings on their back. While they are an unwanted house guest, these spiders pose a minimal threat and rarely bite when they are disturbed. The Wolf Spider Wolf spiders are one of the few types of spiders that do not build webs. Instead, they actively hunt their prey. As a result, they are more commonly found in outdoor spaces, choosing to enter homes only when the weather turns colder and they must seek shelter. The Black Widow... --- ### Ants in Southwestern Ontario: What you Need to Know - Published: 2023-04-06 - Modified: 2023-04-06 - URL: https://www.protrap.ca/ants-southwestern-ontario/ Despite their minuscule size, ants in Southwestern Ontario can quickly become a household nuisance.

These pests can cause extensive damage to your house whilst also spreading countless diseases around both your home and your yard.

However, it is essential to the safety of yourself, your pets, and your home, that they are removed by a licensed animal removal service. Opossums and Your Property: The most common reason opossums enter residential properties is to build their nests during mating season. For these opportunistic creatures, the warmth and shelter of your home presents an ideal location to rear their young. Opossums are excellent climbers. They have sharp claws and long, hairless prehensile tails which can be used as a fifth limb while climbing. This makes it easy for them to scale your property, or any surrounding trees and utility poles, and find an entrance. Opossums have been known to enter homes through everything from an exposed vent to a hole they have created in the roof. Once they have entered a property, opossums will tear up any available materials to construct their nests, such as pads of insulation or cardboard if they can find it. They will also widen their original point of entry as well as create... --- ### What to do about Skunk Problems Around Buildings - Published: 2023-01-30 - Modified: 2023-03-26 - URL: https://www.protrap.ca/skunk-problems-around-buildings/ Let's face it, Skunks have a bad reputation.
