Lawrenceville GA Wildlife Information

Georgia Wildlife Commission: 706-557-3213

If you have any questions about the wildlife of Lawrenceville, you can contact the Georgia Wildlife Commission, sometimes called the Georgia Fish & Wildlife Agency. Georgia game wardens address many wildlife management matters, from hunting licenses, to poaching, endangered species, and Lawrenceville wildlife management. They deal with wild animals outside the range of a pest control company, such as cougars or bears. If you have a problem with nuisance wildlife in Lawrenceville like squirrels, snakes, bats, or raccoons, the state agency is very unlikely to help. You need to hire a private company (here are their prices) such as Critter Control at 678-971-3341.

I also have listed several sources for free Lawrenceville wildlife help. One example, if you've found an injured animal or lost baby bird or other baby animal is the Lawrenceville Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic: 678-313-3781 Or just read below for more info about the wild animals of Lawrenceville.

Georgia is a very hot, humid state, even in the regions of the north where mountains dot the landscape. It is full of lush vegetation, and has a variety of habitats. This state not only has tall, majestic forests, it also has Okefenokee Swamp, a 438,000 acre wetland on the Georgia-Florida border. As you might imagine, this swamp is home to a variety of creatures. These creatures, however, aren't just reptiles and amphibians. The marsh is made up of both wet and dry land, and mammals abound within its protected space. Okefenokee Swamp has black bears, white-tailed deer, and otters. It does, of course, have its fair share of water moccasin snakes, alligators, and turtles.

The rest of Georgia is also full of animals, and because the weather is so warm all year long, there is an abundance of reptiles and cold-blooded creatures not found in the northern states. Warm weather is also ideal for birds, and these birds can range in size from small robins to giant creatures with 8-foot wingspans.

Common pest animals in Georgia include armadillos, black bears, beavers, geese, coyotes, deer, wild hogs, rats, raccoons, squirrels, woodpeckers, and foxes. Not only do these animals enjoy what the warm temperatures have to offer as far as comfort, many of them live on the eggs and offspring from the array of reptiles, birds, and amphibians. Raccoons, in particular, are known to be raiders of nests in the hunt for eggs.

While there is an abundance of food year round for the creatures in this state, the human population of Georgia is so dense, contact with animals is inevitable. As people spread out into the wilds, animals find new ways to come by easy meals and easy shelter. Raccoons won't hesitate to leave the woods in favor of an attic when breeding season comes around, and all pest animals make special note of the homes that have garbage or food lying around outside.

In a state like Georgia, having small pest animals in the yard can eventually draw in larger predators. People living near bodies of water where alligators reside will regret having a plethora of small mammals lounging around the yard. It won't take long be the gator makes a mental note about where to get an easy meal.

Lawrenceville Wildlife Tip
Rodents Biting Pipes: Get It Fixed - Because of their ever-growing teeth, rodents will bite just about anything to wear these gnawers down. Rodents have been known to leave deep gnaw marks on pipes in an effort to get their teeth worn down. They prefer to chew on wood but if that isn't an option at the time when the gnawing urge hits, then whatever is handy will get chewed on. Rodents and other rodents have to keep their front teeth at a certain length. If they let their teeth grow too long, the teeth will not work optimally for eating. Their teeth can grow so long that they can actually pierce their own flesh with their teeth as they curve toward their neck.

The problem with a rodent biting pipes is that they can actually work on a pipe long enough to gnaw a hole through it. If the pipe happens to be a water pipe, you will have to make every effort to repair the pipe and whatever damage the water has already done. If you are handy you can do the work yourself. If home repair is not your forte, you may want to hire someone to do it for you. Either way, it will be expensive for you, the home owner.

Georgia Wildlife Control Emails: To whom it may concern: I am contacting you on behalf of Discovery Studios. We are currently production a documentary series titled "Stuff Happens" (hosted by Bill Nye) for Discovery's up-coming channel "Planet Green." One of our episodes is about the Attic, and un-invited guests such as Rats. In our quest to tell the story we are looking for a Rat Expert in the Georgia area who can talk about the problems & solutions. Would you be able to suggest someone that is knowledgeable, and outgoing on camera? We are working on a tight schedule - a prompt response would be kindly appreciated. Best regards, Steven

we have a fox, and if you were to remove it, how far away would you take it? i need to be guaranteed it won't come back. we had one come back after it was removed a mile away last year and it is back again. we have a low to the ground deck that it wants to go under. we have cemented in an area it was getting into but it now is digging in another area. if you thing you can make it go away and stay away, i would love to talk to you. my name is Nancy and we live in Atlanta. thanks

We used to live in Decatur GA. I lived in the woods�no neighbors, on a private road across from a large pond. I witnessed a large animal (if you can call it that) in a thicket near my home. The noises it made did not sound like an animal, it sounded almost human. It was huge with redish brown hair all over. Can you tell me what it was? Thank you.

David, Just a quick question on the relocation of the animals you remove - do you ever deal with any rehab facilities or educational facilities who might be able to utilize some of the nonreleasable animals in educational programs? What is your policy on that and what do your permits allow you to do? Thank you. Lori

Dave, I live in a condo complex with huge bushes in the front of the building. We caught a family of opossum last year and moved them to another area miles from us. Now we have another family moved into the same bushes. They dig a hole under the branches which are low to the ground and make a nest. Any suggestions on how to scare them away? I have a plastic owl but I doubt that would work. Jan
