Q: Can an animal come down the chimney?

• <div><p>Yes, in some cases if your damper is left open, animals can come down your chimney. In these instances, it&rsquo;s more likely that they have fallen in while looking for a safe spot rather than entered your house intentionally. Leaving your damper closed or installing a chimney cap can prevent animals from coming inside.</p></div>

Q: What is an owl's worst enemy?

• <div><p>An owl's worst enemy in the wild is often other raptors and environmental factors. Among the avian threats, larger owls or other birds of prey can pose a danger, engaging in territorial disputes or competing for food resources. Terrestrial predators like foxes, raccoons, and larger mammals may target owl nests or young fledglings. Environmental factors like severe weather conditions, habitat loss, and food availability changes can also significantly impact owl populations.</p></div>

Q: What attracts woodpeckers?

• <div><p>Woodpeckers may seek out homes with aluminum siding or tin roofs because these surfaces echo their drumming. Homes with wood siding are more frequently targeted as roosting areas or for food sources. If you have insects living in the exposed wood in your home, the birds are likely looking for a snack, in which case your best option is to hire an exterminator.</p></div>

Q: How long does a bird's nest last?

• <div><p>The lifespan of a bird's nest depends on the species. The building process can take from two days to three weeks. Once built, the nesting period for baby birds can last from two to ten weeks before they leave the nest. While most young birds are ready in two to six weeks, some predatory species may need up to two and a half months. Some species nest four to five times per year, so a nest could remain in use for several months. For specific information about a particular nest's longevity, it is best to consult a wildlife professional.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if I find a dead bat in my home?

• <div><p>Finding a dead bat in your home can be frightening, even during spooky season. The <a href="https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/what-should-i-do-if-i-find-dead-or-dying-bats-or-if-i-observe-bats-signs-white-nose-syndrome">United States Department of Interior </a>states that if you find a dead bat, take these steps:</p><ul><li><p>Contact your <a href="https://www.whitenosesyndrome.org/contact/local-bat-expert">state wildlife agency</a> to report the finding</p></li><li><p>Photograph the bat safely to help the wildlife agency determine the species</p></li><li><p>Use disposable gloves to place the bat into a plastic bag, making sure to spray with disinfectant and close the bag securely </p></li><li><p>Thoroughly clean your hands and any clothing that came into contact with the bat </p></li></ul><p>If you see one dead bat, you might have a large bat infestation that needs to be treated immediately.

"Both the inspector and the treatment guy were very friendly and professional. The inspector assessed our problem as an infection with fleas from a pet bird and he appeared to be right, however, the treatment guy said that he should have also checked for bedbugs. The treatment for fleas seem to have corrected our problem."

Finding a dead bat in your home can be frightening, even during spooky season. The United States Department of Interior states that if you find a dead bat, take these steps:

Contact your state wildlife agency to report the finding
Photograph the bat safely to help the wildlife agency determine the species
Use disposable gloves to place the bat into a plastic bag, making sure to spray with disinfectant and close the bag securely
Thoroughly clean your hands and any clothing that came into contact with the bat

If you see one dead bat, you might have a large bat infestation that needs to be treated immediately. Call a local pest control company to properly inspect your home for other bats.
