Today's Solution
The public has any numbers of ways at their disposal to deal with
wildlife effectively. The best way is to deal with it before it
happens. Start with simple things like locking up all garbage in
an animal proof bin, removing all bird feeders at night and keeping
them tidy during the day. Talk to neighbors and make sure they are
not encouraging wildlife by feeding them through handouts, garbage,
pet food left out or bird feeders. Keep the yard tidy by removing
all rubbish. Clear out old woodpiles and any piles of debris that
would make a suitable home for animals. Seal underneath sheds, decks,
porches, and garages. Take away possible den sites in your back yard
before it becomes one. Keeping your house in good repair helps keep
wildlife out but it still won't keep determined animals out. Mothers
needing to raise young easily find vulnerable areas on any home to
enter or they simply tear or chew a hole where they can.
