WILDLIFE CHALLENGES IN WEST PALM BEACH
Animals are driven to find what they need to survive and breed: food, water, and shelter. Homes, garages, and other outbuildings in West Palm Beach can be ideal—of special interest during storms and hurricanes but also when the critters are ready to settle somewhere safe.
The impact of their presence may vary based on the species. Raccoons can be dangerous, biting and scratching and, if infected by rabies, spreading the disease. They can also spread other viruses as well as bacteria and parasites, doing so directly through contact or indirectly through their waste. They present a whole range of problems with your house, too, tearing up roof shingles, damaging soffits and attics, breaking vents, chewing through insulation, and more. The good news: our expert team is well trained in removing raccoons from homes.
Bats can also carry and transmit rabies along with Histoplasmosis; the latter disease can spread when someone breathes in feces and urine spores from infected bats. Droppings and urine can damage your home even when a bat isn’t infected, leaking through your walls and ruining them plus ceilings and insulation. In addition, bats can bring pests into your home, including fleas, bat mites, and bat bugs; the last is related to bed bugs.
In fact, just about any wild animal that gets into your house will typically bring more pests along: ticks, mites, fleas, lice, and so on.
Squirrels can also wreak havoc through their gnawing by damaging siding, insulation, and more. When they chew through wires and cables, this has the potential to start house fires. Then there are the diseases spread by infected squirrels: ringworm, typhus, the plague, tularemia, and more.
If you’re experiencing problems with wild animals in your home, contact us for West Palm Beach wildlife removal services.
Plus, wild creatures can tear up your yard. Armadillos, for example, will dig tunnels through your lawn as they look for food and safe places to breed. Wildlife can also spread diseases to people and pets.
So, if you’re having problems with animals indoors or out, contact us for efficient and effective wildlife removal services—and our experts will take care of the problems for you. To get started, please contact us online or call (561) 791-2400 today.

WILDLIFE EXCLUSION & PREVENTION
When looking for ways to keep wildlife out of your home, these prevention tips can make a significant difference.
- Put outdoor trash cans where they’re away from your home’s foundation, and keep the lids on firmly.
- Make it a habit to check your roof’s condition. Then, make any needed repairs.
- If you have an attic and/or crawl spaces, maintain them well: clean, dry, and well ventilated.
- Caulk or weatherstrip around windows, which includes ones in the basement.
- Remove outdoor debris regularly, including after storms.
- Locate vents and exhaust fans and keep them covered.
- Prune tree branches and shrubbery located near your house.
Even if you don’t spot animals in or around your home, they may be causing damage. So, pay attention to the appearance of chew marks in the house or sounds of scratching. Look, too, for animal waste.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Don’t see your question answered? Get in touch today!
Will rodents and wildlife leave an attic on their own?
The short answer: unlikely. When a rodent or other form of wildlife gets into a place where they can consistently receive food, water, and shelter, there isn’t a reason for them to leave. So, if you need wildlife removal in West Palm Beach, it makes sense to contact the professionals: online or by calling (561) 791-2400.
How do you get rid of wild animals in your house?
Perhaps you know what species you have in your home because you’ve seen them. Or maybe you’re hearing scratching sounds in your wall, and you’re not sure what wild animal is there. In either case, don’t try to take care of the problem yourself. No matter what species is invading your space, they will likely react badly if you try to corner them. To help you with this urgent problem, we’ve set up a special inbox for professional wildlife removal and control requests.
How do I prepare my house for wildlife control services?
Create enough access space for our expert wildlife removal team to inspect your home and confine pets so we can efficiently conduct the inspection.
What is the best pest control for iguanas?
Green iguanas are true pests, thriving in the south Florida climate and wreaking havoc. Unfortunately, you can’t simply transport them to other parts of Florida. That’s not allowed. You can, however, trap and kill them as long as it’s done humanely and within our state’s anti-cruelty laws. In fact, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) encourages iguana removal from private properties. The FWC notes that “Green iguanas are not native to Florida and are considered an invasive species due to their impacts to native wildlife.”
So, reach out for professional iguana removal in West Palm Beach. Our experienced iguana control team is ready to help with effective and appropriate methods. Please contact us online for prompt services.
How can I prevent iguanas from getting into my yard?
The FWC recommends modifying your habitat and/or “humanely harassing the animal.” Specific steps they recommend include removing the plants that can draw them in (they’re attracted to foliage and flowers); filling in holes to help discourage their burrowing; making intermittent noises through the use of hanging wind chimes and similar items; hanging CDs, which help because of their reflective surfaces; and spraying the iguanas with water.
You can also contact Turner and we’ll provide a customized recommendation based on your property and level of infestation.
How bad is the iguana problem in West Palm Beach?
When we say that iguanas are all but overrunning the Sunshine State, we aren’t exaggerating. This nuisance species is thriving here. They’re a non-native species, established as a pet option in 1964 and competing with native species. The FWC highly prioritizes the removal of non-natives from Florida’s environment.
These critters damage landscaping and dig burrows that cause infrastructure damage to sidewalks, foundations, and much more. The FWC shares how they cause millions of dollars of damage annually and cause problems for human health and safety when they damage key infrastructure. Plus, they leave their nasty droppings behind, including in swimming pools.
