Common Pests in Chatham, MA
RACCOONS
Raccoons are highly adaptable and thrive in Chatham’s mix of coastal and wooded environments. They’re frequently spotted near Stage Harbor, and along Shore Road, where trash, shellfish scraps, and sheltered attics make for easy living. These clever animals can pry open vents, tear apart insulation, and nest in chimneys or crawl spaces. We provide humane raccoon trapping and secure exclusion services to keep them out of your home, protecting your property from future damage.
SQUIRRELS & FLYING SQUIRRELS
Eastern gray squirrels and flying squirrels are common across Chatham, especially in wooded neighborhoods near Oyster Pond, Barclay’s Pond, and the quiet back roads of North Chatham. These agile animals often find their way into attics through small roof gaps or vents, where they gnaw on wiring, shred insulation, and create constant noise at dawn and dusk. We provide safe, humane squirrel removal and entry point sealing to ensure they stay out, protecting your home and restoring your peace of mind.
SKUNKS
Skunks are common throughout Chatham, particularly in sandy areas near Hardings Beach, Ridgevale Beach, and the salt marshes around Buck’s Creek. They often burrow under decks, sheds, and porches to create dens and will dig up lawns searching for grubs. One spray can linger for days, making outdoor spaces unpleasant. ARC Wildlife Removal offers humane skunk trapping and long-term exclusion solutions to keep your yard safe, odor-free, and skunk-free.
BATS
Bats often roost in older homes, barns, and waterfront buildings, particularly near bodies of water like Oyster Pond. Drawn to areas rich in insects, bats play a vital role in controlling mosquito populations. However, bats can also carry diseases like rabies and histoplasmosis. Our team uses humane bat removal techniques to remove bats safely, seal every possible entry point, and protect your home and family.
