Accreditations & Memberships
From national certifications to local chamber memberships, homeowners in Fort Worth and across DFW trust Critter Stop to do the job right.
Early detection is key in avoiding major damages and large expenses. Keep an eye out for:
A Fort Worth home owner even contacted us one day after he heard faint scratching in his attic. What appeared trivial later proved to be a colony of rats that had already been chewing up electrical wires. Solving the issue promptly not only eradicated the infestation but also averted a potential fire danger that might have cost much, much more.
Among the top issues is health hazards. Rodents harbor Salmonella and Hantavirus, and insects in the Fort Worth area carry West Nile virus. There is also a chance that feces transmitted by raccoons may bear dangerous parasites, mostly for young ones.
The property destruction is no less unsettling. Squirrels and rats chomp on wiring and duct, and it often leads to electrical shorts. Armadillos burrow under buildings and destroy landscapes. Skunks dig for food as much as spray at threat, and they leave scents that remain for weeks. All are individually troublesome, yet all do one thing in common: the longer it stays, the worse the destruction.
One of the local business owners learned the hard truth after the raccoons continued gaining entry into his warehouse. His previous supplier simply baited traps without sealing holes. We performed a whole exclusion, sealing up all holes, and the problem never reappeared.
Residents of Fort Worth normally have problems with the following species:
According to our seasoned technicians. applying DIY techniques could lead to short-term results, but homeowners rarely attack the root of the problem. These require an alternative removal technique, safe and final, and hence expert help is worthwhile.
Critter Stop offers complete solutions specifically for Fort Worth residences. Everything gets started with a complete inspection in order to identify entry spots and the extent of infestation. We offer rat and mouse exterminating, humane removal of raccoons and opossums, trapping of opossums and skunks, removal of armadillos, and elimination of mosquitoes with long-lasting misting systems. We also install fresh insulation for infested insulation, sanitize infested regions, and seal potential entry spots for future infestation protection.
One of our best recollections was for a family in Benbrook whose attic was infested with raccoons directly above their child’s bedroom. Insulation was torn out and feces soiled the attic. Our technicians moved the raccoons out of the attic humanely, restored the insulation, and sealed up the hole. The parents came back and told us that they could now happily let the kids go back up there at night.
Local expertise sets Critter Stop apart from vendors who serve the entire nation. We're a Fort Worth company with an understanding of regional seasonal patterns and localized wildlife issues.
Wildlife should never be given a vote regarding how you work or live. When dealing with rats gnawing through your foundation, mice crawling through your kitchen, or rodents endangering your safety, Critter Stop is here to help. Our wildlife removal in Fort Worth services combine knowledge, safe protocols, and prevention strategies that produce long-term peace of mind.
