Critter Control, a Rollins, Inc.-owned company focused on humane wildlife removal, has announced the opening of its newest franchise location. The location will provide California’s Southwest Riverside and Northwest San Diego Counties with inspection, prevention, exclusion and removal services for raccoons, bats, rodents, snakes and other nuisance wildlife species.
The franchise is owned and operated by area native Steven Moran, with a goal of helping people in his community handle wildlife encounters as humanely as possible.
As cold temperatures take hold in Riverside and San Diego Counties, local wildlife species have begun entering homes to safely spend the cooler season someplace warm with reliable access to food. Moran urges area residents not to approach animals found in their homes, as they often carry dangerous diseases and may even attempt to attack people or pets if they feel trapped. Homeowners should seek out a trained professional who can humanely handle the situation and seal the home’s hidden entry points to prevent future indoor critter encounters.
Steven Moran, franchise owner of Critter Control of Southwest Riverside County, said in a release, “I love the people in my community and I love all these local critters; I’m going to do everything I can to keep them both safe. There are plenty of humane critter removal and exclusion tactics to deploy; I’m going to respectfully get animals out of homes and then seal off all entry points to ensure no other wildlife gets inside again.”
Joe Felegi, general manager of Critter Control, added, “Home critter issues are starting to become a major nuisance for local residents. Even though it’s California, temperatures still come down during the winter months; critters are seeking out local homes to stay warm. Steven is going to make sure no one gets stuck sharing their space with rats or raccoons all winter, while maintaining a keen focus on their humane treatment.”
