- Termites
- Bed BugsUnhealthy environment. Do you know that birds and their droppings can carry more than 60 diseases that can invade and infect humans? You've heard of salmonella and bed bugs, but add to this list tongue-twisters such as histoplasmosis and cryptococcosis. Note that some diseases spread through droppings can even be fatal.
- FleasAre you at your wits end? Frustrated because bird droppings are contaminating your store stock? Fleas and Lice?

- Moths
- MitesPigeons are probably the most common nuisance bird. Everyone knows that pigeons have adapted to life in the city, and they seem to be everywhere in urban environments. Unfortunately, the bird lovers of the world feed them, and they have developed a dependence upon people, thus reinforcing their dependency upon urban areas. They roost on signs, ledges, almost anywhere, and they bring nesting material and leave droppings everywhere. Pigeons are swimming with filth and disease, as everyone knows. Pigeons can carry or transmit: encephalitis, histoplasmosis, Newcastle disease, pigeon ornithosis, cryptococcosis, pigeon coccidiosis, toxoplasmosis, pseudo-tuberculosis, and salmonella food poisoning. Pigeons can carry fleas, ticks, mites, and other parasites.
- SlugsSnakes are carnivores, meaning they eat meat. Snakes are wonderful as pest control! They prey on or eat many animals that we consider pests and that can do damage to our gardens. In fact, red-bellied snakes love to eat slugs! For additional information on
- BatsIn Maine, there are two types of bats that commonly roost inside of homes, the little brown bat and the big brown bat.
- MolesFalse. Moles eat lots of stuff and grubs are not the only entrée on their menu. It is not appropriate, or for that matter legal, to apply a grub control insecticide to eliminate moles. First of all it won’t work, second of all the pesticide label is the law and insecticides are not labeled for mole control.
- RaccoonsI needed help with raccoons that stemmed from neighbors hand feeding them. Super helpful. Thanks again for your time and guiding me though.
- SnakesMaine is home to 9 species of snakes; Garter Snake, Northern Water Snake, Red-Bellied Snake (smallest), Smooth Green Snake, Milk Snake, Brown Snake, Ribbon Snake, Ring-Necked Snake, Northern Black Racer (largest). All snakes are cold-blooded, meaning their body temperature fluctuates with the temperature around them. This is why you will often see snakes “sunning” themselves on an exposed rock or even on the side of the road. Both rocks and pavement (especially dark pavement) absorb and hold the warmth of the sun.
- WildlifeFrank Spiecker of Harbor Wildlife Control already has spent 24 hours trying to lure her down with his secret-formula bait (don’t ask for the recipe, he ain’t tellin’) and two strategically placed traps. But that failed.
- OpossumsIt is the largest member of its genus, family and order and is the largest of the opossums. They are typically 15–20 inches (38–51 cm) long and weigh between 9 and 13 pounds (4–6 kg). Their coats are a dull grayish brown, other than on their faces, which are white. Opossums have long, hairless, prehensile tails, which can be used to grab branches and carry small objects. They also have hairless ears and a long, flat nose. Opossums have 50 teeth and opposable, clawless thumbs on their rear limbs.
- MuskratsThis industrious little rodent can cause a lot of damage in a little time. Muskrats can cause damage to property when they burrow into ditch banks as they make their den and by eating vegetation such as lawn grass, or garden and ornamental plants.
- CoyotesIn the early spring and summer, coyotes seek easy prey to keep up with the food demands of their pups. “Easy prey” may include cats and dogs in suburban areas, and young livestock (lambs, chicks) in rural areas. There may also be complaints during the fall, as young coyotes try to establish their own territories, because that can be a noisy process. But they’re fussing among themselves, and tend not to wrangle with dogs then.
- PorcupinesPorcupines will not take over your home in droves, but just one of these animals is often enough to make homeowners seek ways to remove it from their property. Content to live in the woods, droughts and starvation will occasionally drive a porcupine toward human dwellings. A Wildlife Team member will investigate your property for signs of porcupines, such as droppings and damage to wooden structures and trees. Once it is determined that it is a porcupine issue, the Wildlife pro will attempt to humanely trap and remove the animal from the area.
- BadgersThey are a family of carnivorous mammals, including weasels, badgers, otters, ferrets, martens, minks, and wolverines, among others. They are a diverse group and form the largest family in the order Carnivora,. Keep reading to learn more Mustelidae facts.
- BobcatsPlease do not hesitate to call us regarding the trapping and removal of coyotes, bobcats or any other predator causing damage or exhibiting the potential to cause damage to to your property, pets or well-being.
- WeaselsWhile preferring to flee from would-be predators, the groundhog is known to viciously defend its burrow when invaded by predators such as skunks, foxes, skunks, weasels or domestic dogs. It can inflict quite a bit of damage with its two large incisors and front claws, especially when the predator is at a disadvantage inside the burrow.
- BirdsAll bird control systems have their pros and cons and below we indicate where each system is best suited. Ultimately, however, we recommend you request a site visit by one of our experienced bird team to evaluate your site first hand.
- WoodpeckersThe bird’s pecking (also called drumming or drilling) commonly damages buildings (wood siding, shingles, trim, and eaves are at particular risk), telephone poles, and fences. Because they are a forest dwelling bird, woodpeckers prefer to drill holes in wood (they especially love pecking cedar siding) but can also damage stucco, Dryvit, and other building materials. Not all woodpecker problems involve property damage. The sound of woodpecker drumming can also be quite a nuisance, especially in the early morning when people are trying to sleep.
- SparrowsThey are often a nuisance in urban areas like manufacturing and food processing plants. Gutters and drainage pipes clogged with sparrow nests can backup and cause extensive water damage and fires have been attributed to electrical shorts casued by machinery housing sparrow nests. Lastly, feces buildup can lead to structural damage from the uric acid in droppings, plus the bacteria, fungal agents and parasites in the feces also pose a health risk.
- StarlingsThey can carry diseases that are transmissible to livestock and to people, including TGE (transmissible gastroenteritis - a disease of swine), blastomycosis, and samonella. One study found that European Starling droppings contained C. jejuni, L. monocytogenes and C. psittaci, all human bacterial pathogens. The study concluded however, that starling droppings were not a significant source of human infection (Gautsch et al. 2000). In the United States, starling droppings provide a growth medium for Histoplasma capsulatum, the fungus that causes histoplasmosis in humans. All of these examples indicate that the spread of disease by starlings to humans and livestock is a potential threat. Spread of disease among wildlife is another facet of this problem.
- PigeonsGas stations, food stores or building supply such as Home Depot, in which birds and pigeons have really befowled the place. They also love to roost on signs at shopping plazas, and they sure make a real mess of your sidewalk. They can also be noisy and unsightly, and lower the cleanliness and value of your property.
- BlackbirdsUnlike birds, bats can become infected with H. capsulatum and consequently can excrete the organism in their droppings. The organism can be carried on the wings, feet, and beaks of birds and infect soil under roosting sites or manure accumulations inside or outside buildings. Active and inactive roosts of blackbirds (e.g., starlings, grackles, red-winged blackbirds, and cowbirds) have been found heavily contaminated by H. capsulatum.
- RodentsThe groundhog, or woodchuck, is one of 14 species of marmots. These rodents live a feast-or-famine lifestyle and gorge themselves all summer to build up plentiful reserves of fat. After the first frost, they retreat to their underground burrows and snooze until spring, drawing their sustenance from body fat. While hibernating, the animal's heart rate plunges, and its body temperature is not much warmer than the temperature inside its burrow. The groundhog is the largest sciurid in its geographical range, typically measuring 40 to 65 cm (16 to 26 in) long (including a 15 cm (6 in) tail) and weighing 2 to 4 kg (4 to 9 lb). In areas with fewer natural predators and large amounts of alfalfa, groundhogs can grow to 80 cm (30 in) and 14 kg (31 lb).
- MiceNew Jersey is home to some 24 snake species, many of which may look dangerous to humans. However, most are ultimately beneficial in the capture of rats and mice. Common non-venomous snake species include the Black Racer, Eastern Garter Snake, Milk Snake, Black Rat Snake, Eastern Ribbon Snake, Eastern Hognose Snake, Scarlet Kingsnake, and the Northern Water Snake which is commonly confused with the Copperhead. The Corn Snake is also present in New Jersey but it is an endangered species.
- RatsNorway rats have a strong sense of smell, which often leads them to homes and gardens looking for easy meals. To enter buildings, they can squeeze through holes 1/2 inch or larger in diameter. They may also burrow under or enlarge existing cracks in doors, window sills, walls, ceilings, and floors.
- SquirrelsTree squirrels get their common name from the fact that they are found in wooded and urban areas with trees. They nest, avoid predators and harvest food in trees. “Tree squirrels” is an all encompassing term for several species, including fox squirrels, gray squirrels, flying squirrels and pine squirrels. Keep reading to learn more tree squirrel facts.
- VolesVoles can be found in every state of the mainland U.S. and Canada. There are over 23 species (Genus - Microtus in North America. Voles are frequently mistaken for shrews, field mice & deer mice. While similar, distinguishing features include longer, coarser hair, and a larger head size.
- ChipmunksChipmunks can damage ornamental shrubs and plants when they harvest fruits and nuts. The dig up and eat flower bulbs and burrow in flower beds or under sidewalks and porches. They cause structural damage when they burrow under foundations and porches to nest. If chipmunks get into your attic via tree limbs and holes, they can cause extensive damage. They can gnaw on wiring, insulation, and wooden structures. This behavior leads to structural issues and the risk of electrical fire.
