Illinois is full of wildlife, including snakes, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, opossums, and more. Wildlife removal is a complex field. I
recommend professional Robinson wildlife control services if you want to solve a critter problem legally and correctly. For example, we specialize in animals in the attic, which have broken into the house
and almost always have a nest of baby animals. It is necessary to perform correct
preventative repairs to keep pest animals a out of your house for good. We perform full building inspection, do the
the repairs and we also offer attic decontamination if necessary. Rats and mice love to live in attics, and can chew wires or leave droppings. Some Robinson animals
frequently enter homes, and correct removal is not a simple task.
DOG or CAT: If you need assistance with a domestic animal, such as a dog or a cat, you need to call your local
Crawford County Animal Control
for assistance. They can help you out with issues such as stray dogs, stray cats, vaccinations, licenses,
pet adoption, lost pets, and more. If you have a wildlife problem, you can try calling the Crawford County animal control, and see what they have to
say, but they will certainly not help you with a complex wildlife problem such as critters in your attic. They are a free government agency that
helps with dog and cat issues only.

Robinson Wildlife Tip:
Do More Raccoons Live In Urban Areas, Or Wild Areas?
There are many wild animals that thrive in urban settlement and raccoon is one of those animals who is most attracted toward human habitat and dwelling because of abundant supply of food and water.
Raccoons are highly adaptable and skilled mammals as they can survive in both urban and in the wild. Raccoons look for opportunity to invade human homes and property and creating complete havoc and destruction. Property needs to be secured with no holes or openings into the attic or chimney. Make sure the dog door is locked and no feeding pets outside or leaving their food in the open as it is an open invitation for raccoons.
Traditionally raccoons live in the wild along riverbanks, trees and bushes where they have easy access to food and water but gradually raccoons are attracted toward human dominated developed landscape for food and shelter. Raccoons are highly intelligent and smart animal as they forage for food even during daytime being a nocturnal animal with the help of its powerful and dextrous paws and fingers.
Studies have shown that human behaviour had increased the count of raccoons in the urban areas. Raccoons are not harmful or dangerous animals but can become aggressive and hostile for food and shelter and harm people, children or even pets.
So people need to keep in mind that raccoons are wild animals and should follow few tips or rules for living with wild animal in the urban areas.
1. People think feeding raccoons can help them to survive but feeding them changes their natural behaviour making them used to human habitat so feeding wild animals should be stopped.
2. All food sources around the house should be minimised as raccoons usually forage for food in the urban areas. Trash cans, gardens, yards, bird feeder, compost and livestock should be taken care of.
3.Garbage and trash cans need to be properly sealed.
4. Bird feeder attracts different birds and rodents and this in turn attracts raccoons so make sure bird feeder does not scatter seeds.
5. Livestock should be protected with proper fencing, flashlights and sensors.
Cleaning up garden, yards and proper maintaining of compost is necessary.
Raccoons do not build their dens or nesting location. They are quite flexible and make their arrangement in attic, chimney, barns and dens or nest of other animals in the wild. In the urban settlement raccoons do not have any fear of any predators like coyote, bobcats or cougar unlike in the wild so their number and count has increased.
Raccoons have the potential of spreading deadly disease like rabies, distemper which can effect humans, children and pets at home causing health complications and infections. Raccoon's feces and urine are toxic so proper clean-up is required around human settlement.
