Why and How Wildlife Animals Invade Homes
Animals seek refuge in homes for various reasons, one of the most compelling being the pursuit of a warm and secure shelter. When the colder months approach, wildlife creatures instinctively search for snug, climate-controlled spaces to escape the harsh outdoor elements. The inviting warmth and comfort provided by human dwellings make them an appealing alternative.
In certain situations, animals resort to breaking into homes because the protection offered by man-made structures surpasses what they can construct in the wild. In their natural habitats, animals, especially those less adapted to challenging environmental conditions, rely on natural shelters such as dens, burrows, or nests to shield themselves from the elements and potential predators. Nevertheless, these natural refuges can be vulnerable, especially during extreme weather conditions or when faced with larger and more menacing predators.
Here are some ways these creatures make it in:
- Digging Under Your Home: Animals dig under your home primarily for shelter and safety. Burrows under homes provide protection from predators, extreme weather conditions and a stable environment.
- Small Opening in Your Homes Structure: Animals can make their way into your home through small openings, such as dryer vents or chimneys. Birds, squirrels, racoons and even bats take advantage of these small openings to gain access into your home.
- Animals Making Holes in Crawl Space or Roof: Animals can also take matters into their own hands when it comes to making their way into your home- literally. There is evidence that racoons have torn holes in roofing or crawlspaces to make their way into your home. To ensure that no animals make their way into your living quarters, or to rid the animals who already are, trust in McCoy Wildlife Services to remove and prevent your home from animal intruders!
