Wild animals live in various places; their main concern is that their chosen shelter protects them from predators and the elements. They also like to live in areas close to food and water sources.
Common harborage spots include trees, dense shrubbery, woodpiles, and brush piles. They also take shelter in spaces under decks, sheds, and foundations. If a wild animal moves into your home, it will do its best to hide its presence from you. We regularly find wild animals hiding within San Antonio homes in attics, wall voids, chimneys, and crawl spaces.

Whether you live in the suburbs, the middle of the city, or way out in the country, wildlife can become a problem on your property. The outdoor spaces surrounding our homes provide wild animals easy access to food, harborage spots, and water sources.
Once wild animals become comfortable outside your home, they may decide to move into your house. Wildlife typically becomes a problem in our houses when environmental conditions outside turn harsh; extremes in temperatures, drought conditions, and periods of heavy rain will cause wildlife to seek indoor shelter.

Wildlife can become a danger to your family and property when they decide to use it as a place to live or forage for food.
Wild animals make terrible guests. Their primary focus is survival, and while gathering food or creating nesting or borrowing sites, they are destructive. Wild animals dig up lawns and gardens, turn over trash cans, walk over outdoor tables, and tunnel under and damage foundations.
In addition to being destructive, they pose health risks. The pathogens they carry on their bodies and in their excrement and saliva can make people significantly ill. Furthermore, wild animals are wild and won't hesitate to defend themselves by spraying noxious liquids (skunks), biting, or scratching.
