Proper attic cleanup removes odor and contamination. Residue attracts new animals. Sanitation is essential.

Well, this is definitely not something we get to do every day!

A recent Facebook post brought to our attention that an exotic African crested porcupine was roaming free in Marion County. After doing a little digging, we discovered this wasn’t a recent escape at all! This porcupine had apparently been living loose in the area for nearly a year and had been showing up on trail cameras all over the county.

As you can imagine, porcupines are not native to South Carolina, much less African ones!

A local domestic animal rescue, Muva Rufferz Rescue Inc., had been regularly capturing photos of this wandering porcupine at one of their feeding stations and graciously allowed us to assist with an attempt to safely capture him. Knowing that African crested porcupines are large rodents that naturally seek shelter in burrows and protected spaces, we surveyed the property and noticed the abandoned house with an accessible crawl space.

Based on the animal’s natural behavior, we suspected he would eventually use the crawl space as a safe place to rest. We positioned one of our Comstock double door traps over the crawl space entrance with both doors open and carefully adjusted the triggers so smaller animals like cats, raccoons, and opossums could freely pass through while still allowing the trap to capture our much larger target.

Then we waited.

The trap was monitored with a cellular camera that sends photos directly to us, and before long our plan worked perfectly. As soon as the porcupine entered the trap, we received an alert and were able to promptly respond and safely retrieve him.

Following capture, he was transported to Black Creek Wildlife Center for a health assessment. The hope is that he can eventually be introduced to the center’s resident African crested porcupines so he can spend the rest of his days with others of his own kind instead of wandering the backroads of South Carolina.

It’s not every day you get called to catch an African crested porcupine, but we’re certainly glad this story had a happy ending!

Removing outdoor food sources discourages wildlife. Easy meals invite repeat visits. Prevention starts outside.

🎅🚫 No, that’s not Santa Claus coming down the chimney…

It’s just a family of uninvited guests using it as a nursery!

A client contacted us today after hearing some scratching and rustling noises coming from her chimney and asked us to investigate. After arriving on site, we carefully fed our inspection camera through the damper. Almost immediately, the huffing and puffing coming back from inside told us one thing: this definitely wasn’t a squirrel!

Sure enough, we caught this family of raccoons redhanded!

Thankfully, the homeowner contacted us before the situation became a much bigger problem. Raccoons frequently use chimneys as den sites to raise their young, and if left alone, they can leave behind large amounts of f***s, urine, nesting material, and damage.

We’ll be encouraging mom to relocate her little ones to a more suitable location, keeping both the raccoons and the homeowner safe and happy then excluding the top of the chimney to keep more unwanted guests from returning.
