Hearing noises in the attic and wondering if you now have a wild animal in your house? It can be dangerous to remove wildlife on your own. Critter Control  offers a full range of animal and wildlife removal services in West Palm Beach. When it is removed properly, you ensure not only the safety of the animal but yourself as well. We make sure you have a safer, healthier home.

Small animals often find their way into your home. Common places they like to inhabit include crawl spaces and basements, the roof, the garage, inside the walls, and under the shed or deck. The animals can range from raccoons, bats, and opossums to mice, rats, squirrels, and more.

Diseases Spread by Animals

There are many diseases you can catch if you come in contact with wild animals. Diseases passed to humans from animals are called zoonosis. A disease agent, or parasite, that can cause a zoonotic disease can be spread directly from wildlife through a bite or other contamination.

Examples of such diseases include the following:

• Rabies: A contagious and fatal viral disease passed on from the animal through its saliva.
• Tularemia: An infection characterized by ulcers at the site of infection, fevers, and weight loss.
• Plague: A bacterial disease associated with fever, delirium, and lung infection.
• Monkeypox: A viral disease related to smallpox and transmitted via fluid exchange by rodents.

Although it’s unlikely that you’ll ever contract a serious disease from a wild animal, extreme precaution should always be taken when encountering wildlife. Critter Control  can safely remove the problem from your home and property, ensuring you and your family are kept free from disease or harm.
