At Minnesota Wild Animal Management, we are no strangers to bats. Bats find themselves in the most unique and interesting places. Whether they are huddled in your attic or making themselves stuck in one of your eaves, you do not want to keep them around for long. In Minnesota, there are seven common species of bats. Within those species, two of them are known for making their way into homes and wreaking havoc on your space. If you think you have
You may have enough knowledge of bats to appreciate that they are intelligent and do a great deal of good for our ecosystem by keeping insect populations in check. You may also know that bats are the only mammal that can fly. However, if you are enjoying a movie in your family room or organizing a box of photos in the attic and you are suddenly dive bombed by a bat or two, this knowledge and appreciation of the intriguing qualities of bats may not be on your mind
Around this time of year, little four-legged critters begin to find their way into your home. Through cracks as tiny as one small marble, mice can invade your home and start their own little family. That little family can quickly turn into an infestation that can then lead to structural and electrical damage in the home. Oh, and did we mention salmonella? That can happen too! Don’t let mice take root in your home. If you notice a mouse in your space, do something about it quickly. Let Minnesota Wild Animal Management help you with all of your mice removal issues.

Minnesota Wild Animal Management can humanely remove raccoons from your property.
Of all of the wild animals that can get into your home, bats can cause some of the most significant problems. Bats carry and transmit diseases to humans, so it is very important that you contact a professional if you think that you have bats in your home. In addition, if you come into close contact (or are bitten) by a bat, you should always seek medical attention immediately. Bats can carry rabies which can be dangerous to humans…
Snakes generally evoke fear in us – and if you see one on your property or inside your garage or home, you may feel a sense of true panic. The reality is that most snakes are harmless, but in that moment when you come eye to eye with one, it is nearly impossible to make this determination. Fortunately, snakes are very rarely aggressive toward humans. In fact, they are likely more scared of us than we are of them. But, if you have seen a snake anywhere on your property, the team at Minnesota Wild Animal Management can locate the snake(s) and any nests and safely remove them from your property.
