As soon as the weather begins to cool, raccoons start looking for warm, sheltered places to spend the winter. 🦝🍂

Attics, chimneys and spaces beneath decks can all look like the perfect seasonal den. Addressing the activity early gives our team time to remove the animals humanely and secure vulnerable areas before they settle in.

Hearing movement or noticing damage? Contact Skedaddle before your unexpected guest gets too comfortable.

“How much will wildlife removal cost?” It’s one of the first questions homeowners ask us, and we understand why.

The answer depends on the animal, how it entered, the condition of the affected space and the work needed to remove it, clean up and prevent future entry.

That’s why every solution begins with a Property Assessment. Our specialists inspect the home, explain what they find and provide a quote based on what your property actually needs.

September doesn’t mean baby squirrel season is over! 🐿️

Late second litters are still common at this time of year, and these little ones may be tucked inside an attic or soffit where they’re completely dependent on their mother.

Our technicians carefully locate and remove the babies, keep the family together and secure the home against future entry.

Hearing squirrel activity? Contact Skedaddle before cooler weather sends more wildlife searching for winter shelter.

Living near a lake, pond or swamp? You may have more than a great view 🦇💧

On her way to a bat Property Assessment, Sarah explains why homes near water often experience more bat activity. Water attracts insects, and insects attract hungry bats looking for their next meal.

Our detailed Property Assessment checks the roofline, foundation and ventilation systems for active entry points and vulnerable areas.

If you’re noticing bats around your Minneapolis property, don’t wait for them to settle into the attic. Contact Skedaddle to schedule an assessment.

🎃🐿️ Pumpkin Season Is Here! Pumpkin spice isn't the only thing making a comeback this time of year...

Our squirrel friends might love pumpkins just as much as we do! 😄

Whether they're nibbling on pumpkins, collecting acorns, or gathering food for the cooler months ahead, late summer and early fall are some of the busiest times of the year for squirrels.

As wildlife becomes more active, it's also a great time to inspect your home for potential entry points before animals begin searching for warm places to spend the fall and winter.

Enjoy your pumpkin displays—but don't be surprised if your neighborhood squirrels decide to admire them, too! 🍂🐿️

A careful approach makes all the difference 🦇💚

Our team in Waukesha, Wisconsin, recently helped humanely remove bats from a home so they could return outside safely.

Bats are delicate animals and should never be handled without the proper training and protective equipment. If one finds its way into your home, keep your distance and contact a wildlife professional for help.

Squirrels may be small, but their constant need to chew can become a big problem when they make their way into your home.

From wood and insulation to vents and other building materials, squirrel activity can cause significant damage over time. Understanding why squirrels chew can help homeowners recognize the signs of activity and know when there may be a problem.

Squirrels chew nonstop to wear down their teeth, causing damage to roofs, wiring, and insulation in Columbus homes. Find out why it happens.

Bats or mice? The evidence can look surprisingly similar. 🦇🐭

In this video, our Minnesota team explains how the location, shape and texture of droppings can help identify which animal is inside. Bat droppings often collect beneath a roost or entry point and crumble easily, while mouse droppings are firmer and commonly found along their travel routes.

Correct identification is the first step toward the right solution. If you’re unsure what has moved in, contact Skedaddle for a professional inspection.

Sharing a wall with your neighbour can sometimes mean sharing more than you realize.

In semi-detached homes, wildlife may be able to move between connected areas of the structure, making it important to understand where animals are entering and how far their activity extends.

Learn how wildlife can travel through semi-detached homes in Durham and what signs homeowners should be aware of.

Wildlife can move between semi-detached Durham homes through shared rooflines, soffits, and attic gaps. See why both sides may need attention.

Mouse season is right around the corner. 🐭🍂

Mice can cause problems throughout the year, but activity inside homes often increases when cooler weather sends them searching for warmth, food and shelter.

Because they can enter through surprisingly small gaps, a proper inspection should cover the entire exterior, from the foundation to the roofline.

Don’t wait until you hear scratching in the walls. Contact Skedaddle to find and secure the openings mice could use.

🎒🏡 Back to School Brings a Quieter Home... and Sometimes Unexpected Sounds. 🏡🎒

As the kids head back to school and daily routines settle in, many homeowners notice sounds that were easy to overlook during a busy summer. Scratching in the attic, movement inside the walls, or noises near vents and soffits could be signs that wildlife has found its way into your home.

Rather than trying to identify the problem based on the sounds alone, a professional home assessment can help determine:

✔️ What type of wildlife may be present
✔️ Where it's entering your home
✔️ Whether there's damage or contamination that needs to be addressed
✔️ The most effective and humane solution for your situation

At Skedaddle Baltimore, our experienced technicians provide thorough home assessments, humane wildlife removal, and long-term exclusion solutions designed to protect your home and help prevent future wildlife entry.

Start the school year with confidence, knowing your home is protected and unexpected wildlife visitors aren't part of your family's new routine.

🌳🐿 Wildlife Fact Wednesday: Have you ever wondered why squirrels chew on soffits, fascia boards, vents, or even wiring?

Like all rodents, squirrels' teeth never stop growing. Chewing helps keep their teeth at a healthy length—but unfortunately, your home can become the target.

Over time, this behavior can damage vents, siding, rooflines, and even electrical wiring.

A professional home assessment can identify vulnerable areas before small chewing damage turns into a larger repair.

At Skedaddle Baltimore, we use humane wildlife removal and professional exclusion methods to help keep squirrels where they belong—outside.
