Humane Wildlife Removal & Exclusion | Deep Six Pest Control (South Central Texas)
When wildlife moves in, it’s rarely subtle for long. You may hear thumping in the attic, find droppings in a garage, smell a strong odor near a crawlspace, or notice damage around vents and soffits. Deep Six Pest Control provides humane wildlife control for homes and businesses in New Braunfels and surrounding South Central Texas communities, with a focus on safe removal and long-term prevention through exclusion.
What “Nuisance Wildlife” Means
(Simple Explanation)
“Nuisance wildlife” refers to wild animals that enter or damage homes and properties, create health risks, or disrupt daily life—often by nesting in attics, wall voids, chimneys, crawlspaces, or under decks.
The key to solving it isn’t just removing the animal you see—it’s finding how it got in and blocking re-entry.
Wildlife We Treat in Texas (Common in Our Area)
Deep Six helps with the nuisance wildlife most commonly encountered in South Central Texas, including:
- Raccoons (attics, chimneys, crawlspaces)
- Opossums (trash areas, crawlspaces; often bring ticks/fleas)
- Squirrels (attics/walls; chewing risks)
- Skunks (under decks/sheds; odor issues)
- Bats (attics/eaves; guano concerns)
- Armadillos (burrowing under porches/foundations)
- Snakes (property intrusions; risk varies by species)
If you’re not sure what you’re hearing or seeing, we can identify the culprit during inspection.
Why Wildlife Problems Keep Coming Back
Wildlife issues repeat for predictable reasons:
- Easy access points (damaged vents, soffit gaps, roofline openings)
- Shelter (attic warmth, crawlspace cover, cluttered storage zones)
- Food sources nearby (trash, pet food, bird seed, insects/rodents)
- Seasonal breeding that increases denning and movement
A permanent solution comes from solving access + shelter, not just removing the animal once.
How Wildlife Impacts Your Home and Health
Wildlife intrusions can cause:
- Structural damage (torn insulation, chewed materials, digging and burrowing)
- Noise and odors (scratching/thumping; strong smells from droppings)
- Health risks (parasites like fleas/ticks; droppings and related hazards)
Warning Signs You May Have Wildlife in Your Home
Common indicators include:
- Scratching or thumping in walls/attic, often at dawn/dusk
- Droppings, tracks, or muddy footprints near entry points
- Visible entry holes: broken vents, soffit gaps, foundation openings
- Chewed/torn screens, damaged soffits, or disturbed insulation

Prevention Tips That Actually Help
A few high-impact habits can make a big difference:
