Skunks slink under farm outbuildings near Thornton, Colorado

I recently completed a skunk removal job for a customer near Thornton, Colorado. I drove out to his farm located about 30 minutes from town. I passed acres and acres of orchards and fields. When I turned the long lane toward the farmhouse, I had to maneuver carefully to avoid hitting the grazing cattle!

When I arrived at the residence, the owner showed me one of his outbuildings that had skunks living under it that he wanted removed. He said that because the farm was in such a remote area, this is the third skunk he has had living beneath one of his farm buildings in the last two years. He said he would like me to remove the current unwanted tenant, but to teach him as I went so he would be able to get the next one.

First, I checked out the outbuilding to find the entrance where the skunk was getting in and out from under the building. Next, I installed a skirting underneath the circumference of building to prevent future unwanted tenants. Then I trapped the mother skunk and searched the area for her den and found four babies. After I removed them from the area, I sealed up the entrance.

After that, the customer ordered materials to install skirting underneath each of his outbuildings and his traditional farmhouse to prevent future visitors.

We solve many types of wildlife control conflicts in Thornton and surrounding areas. Give us a call if you need expert animal removal and/or live wildlife trapping. We can also perform an inspection of your property to evaluate the problem.

Many of the projects we solve involve raccoon families in attics and chimneys, mud swallow nests on stucco, woodpeckers drilling siding, voles and gophers destroying lawns, rats or squirrels thumping and bumping around inside walls and in attics, bat infestations, skunks stealing pet food and snakes living in crawlspaces and stone walls.

Along with physical damage and disease, wild animals also bring along disturbance and nuisance with all their noise and commotion and smell. Baby raccoons chirp and chitter like little birds; raccoons and rats will fight all night and keep people awake; skunk smell takes the cake, but have you ever smelled a dead animal in your ventilation system? We have seen much, much more than these problems, but that is a general idea of the kinds of problems that my professional wildlife removal operators and I are prepared to solve.

Not only do my technicians and I trap and remove problem wild animals, we do a lot of other dirty work, too. Don't hesitate to call us for dead animal removal, pigeon waste cleanup, bat guano removal, mouse droppings, decontamination, repairs, above ground and below ground rodent slick fencing, odor control for skunk spray, and the like. We are a full service pest control company with a wide range of animal control solutions.

I have been in the professional wildlife control business for many years. My favorite stories and experiences are removing bats from schools and churches.

For pigeon and bird control, bat removal, or relief from other pest animals, call our wildlife management experts. Many nuisance wildlife companies offer critter capture and control; our wildlife operators provide professional pest wild animal management. We remove the following AND MORE:

  • Bats from attics, eaves and belfries
  • Pigeons from rooftops
  • Swallow nests from eaves, stucco, log siding, and exterior walls
  • Voles that tear and dig up lawns and destroy root systems

Raccoons make for angry homeowners in Thornton, Colorado

When raccoons start to damage homes and property in Thornton, Colorado, we know how to help:

WE HAVE AT LEAST 2 OR 3 RACOONS IN OUR RAFTERS. THEY HAVE TORN DOWN THE SOFFIT ON THE BACK OF OUR HOUSE AND ARE MOVING AROUND ALL OF THE TIME. WE HAVE TRAPPED THEM IN THE PAST AND STILL HAVE MORE. WE NEED THEM REMOVED. PLEASE. Tim C.

This summer I had a raccoon in my attic. I trapped it and disposed of the body [it had died in the trap]. I then blocked the hole in the soffit panel that it had used with a wedge shaped log nailed to the roof, intending to rebuild the roof area when I had time ... I now have a squirrel in my attic that chewed a hole in the fascia board above the log. I'm trapping again but I want to get the roof repaired permanently and remove any other critters [and their artifacts]. Carl E.

I have a raccoon in my attic. It got in through a vent on the side of my house that it tore through. Peter L.


Raccoons seem to get in so easily, but they are not easy to get out, unless you hire an expert at raccoon removal.
