Critter Control® of Dorchester

As part of the Greater Boston area, Dorchester is home to an abundance of natural areas and wildlife. While wild critters may be enjoyable to watch from a distance, they can be a nightmare if they make their way inside of your Dorchester home or business. Fortunately, the experts at Critter Control® of Boston are trained and equipped to help you protect your Dorchester property.

Common Nuisance Animals in Dorchester

While many species of wildlife call Dorchester home, the most common nuisance wildlife in the area include:

1. Bats

   Though they’re important to the local ecosystem, bats can become a real nuisance if they decide to roost in your chimney or attic. Their removal is highly regulated, so bats are hard to get rid of without professional assistance. Over time, their toxic and corrosive feces (known as guano) can accumulate, causing health issues and structural risks.

2. Raccoons

   Raccoons will enter attics, crawlspaces, and windows seeking shelter and food, causing extensive property damage. They often topple trash cans, scatter litter, and shred screen doors in the process.

3. Woodpeckers

   In addition to being incredibly noisy, woodpeckers can cause damage to wooden structures through their persistent pecking and invite pest infestations by creating holes in trees, siding, and trim on your property.

4. Rodents

   Squirrels, rats, mice and groundhogs can create costly issues for homes and businesses. Squirrels often enter through attics and chimneys, while mice and rats get inside through foundational cracks and other openings and groundhogs dig beneath yards, decks and porches. These animals can damage insulation, plumbing, electrical wiring and other critical structures.

The Importance of Professional Wildlife Removal Services

A wild animal infestation will become more severe the longer it’s left unaddressed. Some of the biggest risks to you, your property and your loved ones include:

• Damage to insulation, roofs, siding, wiring and other important infrastructure
• Droppings, urine, nesting materials and contamination spread throughout the property
• Strong, unpleasant odors and disruptive noises
• Potential exposure to wildlife-related diseases and infections
• Recurring infestations when entry points remain accessible
