I trap nuisance muskrats on your property in the Marshfield, Wisconsin area.
Randy has been a hunter and trapper for over 50 years. He has hunted large and small game from the Mexican border to far northern Canada. Based on this experience, over the years, he has also been asked to help friends and neighbors with animal problems. This has ranged from squirrels in the attic to armadillos in the shrubbery.
Randy is a member of the Wisconsin Trappers Association and has been called on to remove "nuisance animals". An animal becomes a nuisance when it invades our homes or damages property.
Muskrat Invasion of Your Pond
One of the most common problems is muskrats tunneling into pond banks. Once the tunneling starts, the bank will be continuously riddled with hollows - which eventually collapse. The only solution is removing the muskrats. These creatures can have two or three litters per year. If you don't drastically reduce the population, you will soon be overrun.
If you see a muskrat in your pond or waterway, you can be assured that there are MANY more! Trapping muskrats causing damage can be conducted year-round, with no limits or seasons. Muskrat trapping is 100% kill trapping. Relocation is NOT a possibility. Contact Randy to schedule an inspection of your property in the Marshfield, Wisconsin area.
Nuisance Animal Control EQUALS trapping
If muskrats have invaded your pond the best solution is trapping. Using firearms around your residence is usually not an option. "Scaring them away" is not a long-term solution. If you are interested in the permanent removal of the problem animals, give Randy a call.
Also note that trapping equals DEATH for the offending animal. Do NOT contact Randy to inquire about live trapping muskrats or beavers! Even using various traps it will be virtually impossible to achieve 100% If you want 100% eradication.
Also note that nuisance animal control is an expensive, time-consuming process. Expensive traps must be properly set, then checked at least every 48 hours. This means that there will be an initial set-up expense and ongoing operational charges. Some animal offenders may elude traps for many days. You will be REQUIRED to set an upper limit to the total expense, but this may not guarantee the full elimination of the animal problem. Added costs, such as the removal of trapped animals may also apply.
The conditions that attracted muskrats to your pond may lead to "repeat offenders" in the future - including migrating animals. There is no way to guarantee that you won't see muskrats again next year. The BEST that you can do is knock their population annually to keep from being overrun.
Randy is licensed to remove nuisance muskrats by the State of Wisconsin. There is NO CLOSED SEASON for the control of muskrats causing damage. While serving as the agent of the landowner, Randy can both TRAP and SHOOT muskrats that are causing damage to dikes, dams, shoreline, or road-ways per WI NR 12.10(1)(b)1(d).
Cost estimates: The MINIMUM cost will be $100.00 for set-up, trapping, and animal removal. Every day of trap checks and animal removal will add to the total expense. There is a cost to remove the animal and reset the trap. This cost is PER ANIMAL - regardless if it is a mouse, chipmunk, or 40-pound beaver. It is up to the landowner or resident to set the MAXIMUM budget in advance.
Randy offers nuisance animal removal only because he is an avid outdoorsman. This is not a profitable business, and furs have little value. The landowner or resident will be REQUIRED to sign both a service estimate AND a 100% release of all liability for these services. Please contact Randy for an estimate or to schedule an on-site visit to assess the problem.
