Got a question? We’re here to help.


  • What is nuisance wildlife, and how can it affect my property?

    Nuisance wildlife includes animals like raccoons, squirrels, opossums, skunks, and bats that invade homes or yards, causing damage, health risks, and property concerns.

  • How can I tell if I have wildlife in my attic or walls?

    Common signs of wildlife in your attic or walls include scratching noises, droppings, strong odors, chewed wires, and disturbed insulation. These are clear indicators that you may need wildlife removal services.

  • What are the risks of handling nuisance wildlife on my own?

    Attempting to remove wildlife without proper training can lead to bites, scratches, or exposure to diseases like rabies. Professional wildlife removal experts ensure safe, humane removal and prevent recurrence.

  • What animals are considered the most common nuisance wildlife in Michigan?

    In Michigan, nuisance wildlife often includes raccoons, skunks, opossums, squirrels, bats, and groundhogs, all of which can invade homes, sheds, or yards in search of food and shelter.

  • How does Downriver Pest Control remove nuisance animals?

    We use humane, environmentally friendly methods such as trapping and relocation, as well as exclusion techniques to prevent wildlife from re-entering your property.

  • What is wildlife exclusion, and why is it important?

    Wildlife exclusion involves sealing entry points and making structural modifications to keep animals out of your home or business. Exclusion is a crucial part of long-term wildlife control.

  • Will the wildlife return after removal?

    With our wildlife exclusion services and preventative measures, we help prevent animals from returning. Regular maintenance and repairs to potential entry points further reduce the chance of re-entry.

  • Does homeowners' insurance cover wildlife removal?

    Coverage varies by provider, but many homeowner’s insurance policies do not cover the cost of wildlife removal. We recommend checking with your insurance for details on wildlife damage coverage.

  • What should I do if I encounter a wild animal in my home?

    If you find a wild animal in your home, avoid direct contact and call a professional wildlife removal service immediately. Our team is trained to handle these situations safely and efficiently.
