Wildlife Removal North Eastern Arkansas is a full-service Pocahontas wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Pocahontas pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Wildlife Removal North Eastern Arkansas performs a full inspection of the home or property, and determines why the animal(s) are there, and if inside a building, how the animals got inside. All animals (including rodents) are trapped and removed, or if possible, removed from the building using special exclusion devices. Once the animals are gone, preventative repairs are essential, and cleanup is sometimes recommended.
Pocahontas wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Arkansas to trap without a license. Trap type is very important and there are many different types, bait is somewhat relevant, trap placement is vital, and there are dozens of small things that are very important to know. Safety is a concern. Then once the animal is trapped, it must be removed and dealt with in the proper manner according to Arkansas law. We offer Pocahontas raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.
Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Wildlife Removal North Eastern Arkansas. Many types of animals like to live in attics. This includes squirrels, raccoons, rats, mice, bats, birds, and even possums. Critters like to go into attics for a safe place to live and raise their young. Removing animals from attics is very complex work, partly because of the presence of baby animals. If you need Pocahontas squirrel removal, we can remove all the squirrels from your attic, and seal out any future ones. Read more about how to get rid of squirrels.
Rodent control must be done in a very specific way. First off, the most important thing is that all the openings that rats and mice can use to enter a house be sealed. Then all the rodents must be physically trapped and removed. Never, ever use poison! Most Pocahontas exterminators will just use this lazy poison technique to kill rodents, and it causes more harm than good - dead stinky rats, and it doesn't solve the problem. Call us for correct Pocahontas rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.
Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Arkansas is known to have colonizing bats who often live in buildings. Bats love attics. If not removed, the colony can grow to a very large size over the years. The bat droppings are often corrosive and cause health risks. The same goes for bird droppings on or in buildings. We perform Pocahontas pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Pocahontas bat removal. We remove 100% of the bat colony and seal the building so that it's totally bat-proof. Read more about how to get rid of bats.
If you have animals inside a house, no job is complete without proper exclusion repairs. If you simply hire a Pocahontas trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Pocahontas wildlife control company that identifies 100% of the animal entry points into your building, and seals them shut with professional repairs. In addition, in many cases animals have left waste or contamination behind, and you'll want a company that can provide professional cleaning services. Wildlife Removal North Eastern Arkansas does both.
The above are just some of the services offered by Wildlife Removal North Eastern Arkansas. We also trap and remove animals that destroy lawns, such as moles, or digging animals. Sometimes animals like opossums will live under buildings, steal pet food, raid garbage cans, etc. Read about how to get rid of opossums. Skunks commonly live under sheds or decks, and set up a den. We can trap and remove them without them spraying. Read about how to get rid of skunks. Wildlife Removal North Eastern Arkansas also provides dead animal removal in Pocahontas. If you need help with any other wildlife conflict, from a fox, beaver, groundhog, or any other critter, we can solve it. We also do Pocahontas snake removal - most of the snakes in Arkansas are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Pocahontas. And remember, we are a private business, not Randolph County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 870-892-1390. Randolph County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.
Pocahontas Wildlife Tip #1:
Groundhog exterminator
On one day every year, people from all over the country await to see if a groundhog will come out of its den and either see its shadow or not, foretelling an anxious nation if there will be an extended period of time for winter. Most don't really know how this tradition got started, but it has become quite a myth in this country, something that news outlets spend far more attention on each year than they should.
The groundhog may be cute when you're trying to find out if you're going to have six additional weeks of winter or not, but this does not mean that you want one of these critters living in your yard. Groundhogs can be quite a nuisance with their dens and tunnel systems, and this can create quite a problem in your yard.
Not only do you have to worry about a rodent bringing its diseases and bacteria with it, but you also have the concern of the potential for injury should you step in one of these holes or even come in direct contact with the animal. It may be scared of you, but in the right circ*mstances that doesn't mean it wouldn't by your dog or even you for that matter.
While there are different measures you take to get the groundhog away from your yard, this can be a rather complicated process because these animals are extremely prolific at digging, meaning that using the normal measures you would employ to keep animals out, like a fence, may be completely useless. This may only leave you with the option of termination.
You can look online or even head to your neighborhood home improvement store and find different remedies that you can use to kill off a groundhog. However, some are not up to the task of performing this on their own, and would prefer to find a professional that could do it forum. What they are looking for is a groundhog exterminator.
While this would be the ideal option, the truth is that there are not a lot of businesses that offer groundhog extermination. There are not a lot of people who go the extra step of trying to kill off a groundhog to keep it away from their property.
What this means is that you may not find a business in your area that offers this kind of service but, if you do, it may be quite expensive. The average across the country for groundhog removal is about $195, which is a pretty stiff cost for removing a 35 pound animal.
Some extermination services even offer to take the groundhog and move it to a different location for you. Sadly, this actually costs twice the amount of extermination and is why a lot of homeowners would just prefer to have the animal killed off rather than saved and moved.
If you want to know if there are groundhog exterminators near you, your best place to start is by contacting your local animal control agency. They should have a list of organizations that can assist you.

Arkansas Wildlife Information:
Arkansas State bird: Mockingbird
State mammal: White-tailed deer
State insect: European honeybee
Arkansas, with its rolling hills, areas of flat plains and fertile soil, is known as 'the natural state'. It is home to a number of impressive landmarks, one of which being the Crowley Ridge, a region of foothills dissecting the Delta plain. The plain is otherwise flat, and the Crowley Ridge is remarkably distinct from a bird's eye view. Though much of the region is flat farmland, the northwestern area of the state is home to the Ozark Mountains, the only major mountain range between the Rockies and the Appalachians. The Ozark Mountains are filled with caves, making them ideal for supporting the state's 16 different species of bats. The summers in Arkansas are warm and humid, and the winters can be very dry but cool. Because of the elevations differences around the state, Arkansas can see significant snowfalls during the winter months.
The state, despite its renowned landmarks and preserved areas of wilderness, once had few large animals that called the place home. Originally, before massive efforts to more toward agriculture, black bears and elk were common. Humans almost wiped both species out, but with intervention from the state, both species have started to thrive once more. The wild hog, which is not native to Arkansas, has help the propagation of another species-the coyote. Coyotes were once considered rare in Arkansas, but with an influx of hogs and rodent species, the canines now have substantial populations in every county of the state. Pocket gophers, one of the most common nuisance animals in this region, are also on the list of food species for intermediate predators.
White-tailed deer, though very common, are not often on the list of prey animals for black bears, coyotes, or bobcats.
Nuisance critters are common in Arkansas. Because bats as so numerous in this state, it's inevitable that homeowners will eventually find bats roosting in an attic or an old barn. Most of the species prefer the quiet of mountain caves, but a human dwelling will do in a pinch. The caves are also home to endangered crayfish and the Ozark cavefish. Mount Magazine, in the Quachita Mountains, is the highest point in the state and is also home to a rare species of terrestrial snail.
Other common nuisance animals in this area of the country include raccoons, opossums, rats, mice, squirrels, foxes, rabbits, moles, skunks, and snakes.
