Why is it important to call a PMP when you need wildlife control?

Wildlife control and damage mitigation often involve hazards such as working in cramped, hot and enclosed spaces.

The following are important reasons for choosing to use a pest management professional (PMP) for wildlife control:

Physical Safety Risks To Homeowners

One of the most common problems associated with wildlife control is accidents and falls. When the job requires trapping, exclusion, or wildlife removal, the person doing the work is exposed to potential falls from ladders, injury from bites and scratches, and exposure to wildlife diseases. Common hazards include falling through a ceiling while moving in the attic and bumping one’s head on pipes and vent ducts in the crawl space.
