Garden City Wildlife Removal

When wildlife moves into your home or business, it quickly becomes an annoyance, along with a potential safety and health concern. Garden City property owners have been able to rely on the experienced, locally based team at General Pest Control since 1978. We respond calmly and competently to urgent wildlife situations. 

We’ve handled everything from raccoons in the attics to bats in the barns, combining humane removal, practical exclusion work, and clear communication so you can move from crisis to control with as little stress as possible.

We treat each call as unique, eschewing one-size-fits-all cookie-cutter solutions. We assess risks, protect people and pets, and recommend fixes that reduce the chance of repeat visits. Our bilingual technicians arrive with the tools and training needed and coordinate follow-up steps, including repairs, cleanup referrals, or monitoring, so you know what happens after we leave.

When Wildlife Becomes a Crisis: Understanding the Risks and Acting Fast

Wild animals living on or near your property can pose an immediate danger and cause long-term damage. Here are three concerns we address when called to a wildlife emergency…

The Health Hazards 

Wild animals carry parasites and pathogens that pose real risks. Raccoons and opossums can harbor roundworms and fleas. Bats may carry rabies, and rodents bring ticks and bacteria into living spaces. Nesting materials and droppings can contaminate your insulation and air pathways. 

In the Garden City area, properties adjacent to irrigation ditches and field edges, common along the US-50 corridor, sometimes see more wildlife movement, increasing the chance that pests will end up inside your home or outbuildings. When we intervene, we follow protocols that limit exposure and, if needed, refer you to professional cleanup specialists for safe remediation.

Structural and Fire Hazards

Wildlife damage isn’t only biological. Animals chew, nest, and burrow, compromising both your structure and systems. Squirrels and rats chew wiring. Raccoons pull shingles and open soffits. Skunks or feral cats under porches can undermine your foundation. Electrical damage increases the fire risk, and hidden nesting in attics or crawl spaces can accelerate insulation degradation. 

In Finney County’s older neighborhoods, historic porches and older wiring can exacerbate these vulnerabilities. Our inspections document the damage, prioritize interventions that protect human life and property, and coordinate exclusion work, like sealing points of entry and reinforcing vulnerable areas, to reduce future risk.
