You think of your home and property as a safe place and it is, however, there is a chance that your cozy home may become refuge for others from nature. An invasion of wildlife into a home can cause fear and result in damage. Whether its small insects or big mammals, each has its own unique set of challenges and reasons for entry.
You may be thinking, “what do you mean by a wildlife invasion?”
An invasion or infestation occurs when animals enter living areas where they are not supposed to live.
Wild animals, pests and critters can destroy property, spread disease or be an incredible nuisance all because they are looking for shelter from the cold, are seeking food or need to give birth.
What are some examples of wildlife and critters in Arizona?
With its many different types of environments, Arizona has a lot of animals. There are some which are very common, and they invade homes on a regular basis; these include:
1. Rats and Mice: Rodents such as these can get into buildings through tiny holes because they can fit anywhere their head fits. They like chewing things up so you might find wires or insulation torn apart by them which could lead to fires if this is not fixed quickly enough.
2. Scorpions: Arizona is home to these dangerous arachnids too – especially in dark cool places where people might keep unused clothing for example – this creates an ideal harborage site for scorpions.
3. Snakes: Many different kinds of snakes live in Arizona but some like rattlesnakes will come inside houses looking for shade during hot summer days.
4. Pack Rats: Also known as wood rats; they make nests within walls and attics among other places while constantly gnawing on things hence giving out bad smell as well as causing serious damage to buildings.
5. Bats: By frequenting attics mostly at dawn or dusk hours each day, bats pose health risks through their dropping containing infectious organisms that causes lung disease (histoplasmosis) when inhaled by humans; also rabies virus transmitted through bites scratches etc….
6. Birds: They too can be a real problem especially if pigeons decide to reside on your roof thus making it weaker due to their weight; not forgetting about diseases which may spread from droppings among others.
7. Insects: Termites, ants, and cockroaches are common in Arizona. They can cause extensive damage to wooden structures and contaminate food sources.
