In a Burns Harbor IN household, the sudden appearance of bats, raccoons, squirrels, and rodents, become a cause of concern (only) after the animal become aggressive. Even so, if the creature starts excreting body fluids, feces, urine or saliva, home owners started to become extremely worried. An important tip we always like to give: remove wildlife animals the soonest and “entry proof” your home as soon as you see undomesticated animals in your neighborhood. Also, remember that local authorities often do not handle wildlife animals and you may want to have a ready contact with a wildlife specialist.
Indigenous and untamed animals are easy to spot; generally, if they’re not the usual pet, then they don’t belong to your home, ever. You already know domesticated animals like dogs carry rabies, let alone of an unknown mammal from the wild. We always recommend for everyone to always save the number of the nearest wildlife control company in your town.

Wildlife in Burns Harbor
Burns Harbor’s balanced geography can be traced to its abundant history ever since the incorporation of the town in 1954. Back then, in 1966, it was far from a developing town that it is now. It was somewhat floating in development, still finding its own identity in the map of Porter. Only after a private entity, Bethlehem Steel came and helped Burns Harbor in terms of legal and funding assistance did it able to stand on its own as a new town.
As part of the Chicago Metropolitan Area, Burns Harbor lies near the Indiana Dunes. Notable on the town is its varying landscapes of soil lots, grass, gardens and woods of varying scope, on which it significantly attract various wildlife animals and creatures from adjacent wildlife preserves.

What is echolocation? For most people, the immediate meaning is on the two terms – “echo” and “location” – which would translate as ‘finding a way using the echo’.
The most common uses of echolocation are by submarines. Echolocation is a high-specially technique that can also be used ‘instinctively’ by the blind.
In the animal kingdom, the best mammal known for echolocation is the bats. They mainly use ‘ultrasonic sounds’ as a perceptual system, with echo emitting sounds to navigate their way in the dark. Basically, the outgoing pulse, returns echoes, which then produces ‘bat images’ in the mammal’s nervous system and their brain.

Raccoon Removal in Burns Harbor
Raccoons appear most of the time in residential neighborhoods in Burns Harbor, with some of the raccoons becoming aggressive, with signs of stress and hunger. There were times the animal suddenly appears, out of nowhere, often in picnic or camping. Raccoons easily get attracted to the smell of barbecues and hotdogs on outdoor grills. Some people asks, “how to push raccoons away” if the animal try to close in.
If a raccoon approaches to get near, you may want to stand up and appear larger. Scare it away with a loud shout and try then wave and stretch your hands. Throw some rocks to send them off, or douse them with water. Raccoons can act more aggressive, if they’re hunting for food for their survival.
However, remember that raccoons displaced from nature will most likely force them to seek new locations for refuge and food hunting. They can quickly adapt with their nocturnal traits. They then have no trouble climbing in chimneys, attics and open windows of houses (just as when everyone else is asleep).
You may want to ‘entry proof’ your home and ask a wildlife removal company regarding this. We provide Burns Harbor IN raccoon removal, call us.

Squirrels are quite recognizable and familiar for most people. The general belief is that squirrels live in trees, wooden lots and ground burrows. However, remember that squirrels have several numbers of subfamilies and around 300 different types of species.
In Burns Harbor, the ground squirrel is quite common. We’re going to take a brief look on the characteristics and behavior of ground squirrels, so you can easily identify them if you see them.
Ground squirrels, as their name suggest, lives on the ground. They are medium-sized and sometimes known as part of the ‘marmot-tribe’. There are several species of ground squirrels which includes larger-sized marmots, smaller-sized chipmunks, American groundhog and prairie dogs.
A distinct trait of ground squirrels is that they love flavorful food items, particularly seeds, cones, flower bulbs and nuts. Such food, if it starts falling on the ground in the summer and fall season, drive ground squirrels mad, as they often seen scampering and running around (in frantic mode) to pick up the food however they can. Ground squirrels are well known for hoarding food, in which they store underground in preparation of winter.
