Wildlife in Winfield
Winfield’s diverse household and residential community can be seen at the thriving businesses and stores across the town. Meanwhile the ‘tree branch cutting program’ by authorities for home owners, a local initiative aiming to help Winfield residents to chip tree branches, seem to cause displacement of several wildlife creatures.
The trim-tree-branches program sounds like a good idea, but a problem that came up – the indigenous animals in gardens, trees and mini forests became displaced in Winfield. This has since forced a number of raccoons, squirrels, woodchucks, skunks and chipmunks to seek new habitats in neighboring communities. Not surprisingly, such rabid creatures started intruding households, shops, facilities and other establishments.

Bats can vary in their size and the appearance, based on group and subspecies. One of the smallest bats known is the bumble-bee bat or sometimes called a ‘hog-nosed bat’, which has a wingspan of around 15 cm or 6 inches.
Most of microchiroptera species have unique facial features, but mostly they have extended and wide ears, with peculiar nostrils. They are said to have the tragus, which they particularly use in echo location.
The use of echo location is one of the distinct traits of bats, which has fascinated biologists and students alike. These are generated ultrasound that comes from the bat’s larynx, emitting either though the open mouth or nose. The bat’s vocalizations works as a broad and wide sound beam, where they use it to probe communicate with other bats and to probe their current surroundings.
It’s commonplace to see bats building roosts in urban areas. Using echolocation, they will survey the environment and find the best spot to rest in daytime. Bats are nocturnal, so you will always find them, most of the time in a ceiling or roof during the day. Don’t remove bats yourself. They eat insects and can be carriers of diseases. You may want to call a Winfield IN bat removal expert for this.

Squirrel Trapping Squirrel Removal in Winfield
We always thought squirrels like to eat plant leaves. However, interesting to note they cannot digest the cellulose found in plants. A material in the cell walls, “cellulose”, is popularly known for its “dietary fiber” characteristics. Cellulose has no odor and taste, and cannot be dissolved in water.
This makes sense why squirrels would either spit leaves out after nibbling a little. Even if they managed to eat leaves for the first time, a squirrel does not return to a staple of “green leafy” plants or vegetables. Squirrels like food items that stimulate their nose and taste buds. Though they’re considered as herbivores, they like buds, seeds, cones, fruits, and nuts that are full of aroma and flavor!
In most cases, if raccoons failed to find food outdoors, they will go indoors of houses and facilities. “Squirrel proofing” is what you need to prevent them from entering. Call us for details.

Raccoon’s natural habitats are often found in forest den, where they take their rest or nurture their young. These nature dens can either be hollow logs, piles of shrubs and bushes, rock piles or tree holes. They’re also like using abandoned burrows, created by other wildlife animals. They’re often displaced by logging companies and wildlife hunters, which forces the raccoon to live in city parks and urban areas.
Urbanized raccoons have become a common sight in towns like Winfield. Their make-shift den sites in cities can be abandoned cars, chimneys, garages, kitchens, storage rooms, crawl spaces and attics. Known to be nocturnal, raccoons often seek rest during daytime. They can use a ‘living space’ for several days, though in unpredictable pattern. However, during winter and rainstorms, raccoons can stay in an extended period that can last for several weeks or months.
If for some reason raccoons found their way inside your home, find an expert in wildlife control. Call our number and we’ll connect you with a specialist in wildlife removal.
