At Skedaddle, we specialise in humane wildlife control in Madison, understanding the unique balance between urban living and nature’s animals. Our mission is simple but crucial – to safely and responsibly remove wildlife that has found its way into places it shouldn’t be. Why do we do it? Because we believe in coexistence rather than conflict.

With its beautiful natural surroundings, this city attracts a variety of wildlife. While we love and appreciate these animals, sometimes they can end up in our homes or businesses, leading to potential risks for both humans and animals alike. Our approach ensures that these animals are treated with respect and kindness, all while keeping your spaces safe and wildlife-free.

Life in Madison

Madison offers a unique blend of urban living amidst lush natural beauty, making it an ideal place for those who cherish the outdoors and wildlife. Life here is vibrant, with the city’s heart pulsating with activities, yet it seamlessly transitions into tranquil parks and waterways, inviting nature lovers to explore its bounty.

For outdoor enthusiasts, this city is nothing short of paradise. The city is nestled between Lake Mendota and Lake Monona, offering ample opportunities for water-based activities like kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. The scenic beauty of these lakes serves as a backdrop for the Madison skyline, promising breathtaking views at dawn and dusk.

Aside from the lakes, this city’s extensive network of biking and hiking trails appeal to those who prefer land over water. The Capital City State Trail, for example, provides a gateway to exploring the area’s natural landscapes while staying active. These trails not only promote a healthy lifestyle but also allow residents and visitors to intimately experience the area’s flora and fauna.

Life here encapsulates the essence of a balanced lifestyle where the vibrancy of city life and the tranquility of nature coexist. It’s a place where outdoor enthusiasts and animal lovers can thrive, finding joy in the natural world just steps away from urban conveniences.

Local Wildlife in Madison, Wisconsin

Raccoons, with their dexterous hands and intelligent nature, are often found navigating urban environments with ease. However, their quest for food and shelter can lead them into attics, crawl spaces, and even into homes, causing damage and potential health risks through the spread of diseases such as rabies. We specialize in humane raccoon removal techniques that ensure the safety of both humans and animals and prevent future invasions.

Squirrels, agile and quick, are another common sight. These small mammals, although adorable, can become a nuisance when they decide to make their homes within ours. They are known for gnawing on electrical wires and wooden structures, posing fire hazards and structural damage.
Skunks, recognized by their distinctive black and white coloring, carry the threat of their notorious spray when they feel threatened. While skunks play a role in controlling insects and rodent populations, their presence under porches or in yards can be less than pleasant for homeowners. Our humane removal services ensure that skunks are safely removed from residential areas, minimizing the risk of odor incidents.

Bats, beneficial for their insect control capabilities, especially in reducing mosquito populations, can sometimes find their way into homes, creating health risks with their droppings known as guano. Our experts understand the importance of bats in the ecosystem and follow careful procedures to exclude bats from homes, ensuring they can continue their role in nature.

Mice and rats, although small, can cause significant issues when they infiltrate homes, including spreading diseases and causing damage to food stocks and property. Skedaddle’s approach to rodent control includes not only the humane removal of these animals but also securing entry points to prevent re-entry, and keeping homes safe and sanitary.

Birds, while a delightful sight and sound for many, can become problematic when they nest in undesirable locations on properties, potentially leading to property damage and health concerns through their droppings. We deal with bird removal with a focus on avoiding harm to the birds or disruption to their natural behaviors, aiming for peaceful coexistence between humans and our feathered friends.

In each scenario, Skedaddle’s commitment to the humane treatment of wildlife and the safety of the city’s residents stands paramount, ensuring a balance between human and animal residents of this vibrant city.

SKEDADDLE MADISON, DID YOU KNOW?

Can I Feed Wildlife in Madison?
The state of Wisconsin has legislature in place that prohibits the feeding of any wildlife species. Feeding wildlife can lead to potentially dangerous consequences for the animal and for people, and can lead wildlife to take up permanent residence on a property.

Do Animals in Madison Carry Rabies?
The most common carriers of rabies in Wisconsin are skunks and bats. Any mammal can become infected with the rabies virus and are able to spread the rabies virus to people or a pet through a bite, scratch or through infected saliva entering an open wound.

Does the City of Madison Remove Wildlife?
