Tacoma Wildlife Removal Tip of the Month: Are Repellents Like Powders or Machines Effective at Solving Wildlife Conflicts?

Defending your home from wild Tacoma animals is a process that takes efforts on multiple levels. On the one hand, you need to maintain your estate in a good shape to not allow the animals to get in. on the other hand, you need to know the wildlife in the area you live in pretty well. There is no better way to protect your home against wild animals than knowing exactly which species to look out for. It could happen that you only need to watch out for rats and mice. In this case, regular maintenance and proper hygiene should do enough. But, your home could also be in danger from opossums, skunks, raccoons, bats and squirrels. To know exactly what type of an animal to protect your home from, you are going to have to do some research. In general, repairs, fencing, and trapping are amongst most effective ways of getting rid of wild animals. But, many wonder if the use of widely known animal repellents might help them to keep Washington animals away.



Wild Washington animal repellents come in different shapes, forms and manufacturers. Mainly, they fall into two major groups. First groups of repellents include all sorts of chemical repellents. These come in different forms as well. While some are homemade and natural, others are industrial and made out of industrial chemicals. The second group of repellents includes mechanical repellents. Mechanical repellents are, essentially, machines that emit different types of signals that are supposed to scare the animal away or cause them discomfort using light or sounds. Unlike mechanical, chemical repellents use strong smell and taste to deter wild Tacoma animals.

Powder chemical repellents consist out of different sorts of condiments, that are supposed to disturb the animal to such degree that eventually stops attempting to access the areas in which the powder is applied in. powder repellents also come in a homemade, natural and industrial home. Home- made powders usually mix different household condiments that have strong smell and taste. Natural powdered repellents are often sold in stores and based on ingredients like herbs and oils (lavender, cinnamon, lemon, chili, pepper etc.). Often, people use mothballs to deter different wild animals. On the other hand, industrial chemical repellents contain strong chemicals like bleach and ammonia, as well as many other harsh chemicals. The strong smell of these chemicals is supposed to overwhelm the animal's sense of smell and make the area unbearable for them to reside in.

Chemical repellents also come in a form of sprays. Both homemade and industrial, these sprays are mixed in to create a compound that will repel different types of Washington animals. Using strong-scented condiments like ammonia, lemon, and chili, these are also supposed to create an unbearable living environment for the wild animals. While home- made spray repellents are fashioned from different kitchen condiments mixed in a spray bottle, the industrial ones are made out of stronger scented extracts, oils, and acids. Since many of these contain ammonia, they are also often considered to be toxic.
