COMMON WILDLIFE ANIMALS
If you live in southern California, you will almost certainly have to deal with animals at some time, if you haven’t already. They are troublesome creatures that do not want to create problems but inadvertently bring illnesses, parasites, and messes while also possibly inflicting harm. The following are the most typical wildlife creatures that homeowners see depending on the season:
- Spring: Bats, Skunks, Opossums, Squirrels, Pigeons
- Summer: Bats, Skunks, Opossums, Racoons
- Fall: Bats, Rats, Mice, Squirrels, Racoons
- Winter: Rats and Mice
WHY YOU SHOULD KEEP THEM OUT
Fleas, mites, and bed bugs may all be transmitted and imported by local fauna. Parasites are carried by rodents, critters, and flying creatures, and are subsequently deposited in their nesting locations. If they nest within your house, these parasites will spread their territory and ultimately locate human victims to feed on.
Diseases
Most wildlife incursions may carry illnesses such as rabies, salmonella, and other bacteria/pathogens that are hazardous to people. In addition to being carriers, most of the waste generated by animals contains their own illnesses such as hantavirus and histoplasmosis.
Damages
Opossums and raccoons will build nests in hard-to-reach spots that are left undisturbed, such as crawl spaces, attics, and patios. They may also dig through gardens in quest of food and raid garbage cans that are left unguarded. Birds and bats may leave a substantial quantity of excrement that can harm the outside of your house.
