Small Predator Control – Protect Your Property and Environment
Small predators can cause disturbances in yards, around buildings, and in waste or storage areas. They can spread diseases, damage structures, and pose a threat to domestic and wild animals. Controlling small predators is an important part of safe property maintenance, especially in rural areas, row house neighborhoods, and production environments.
Tuholaisapu24 Oy provides expert small predator control in a supervised and legal manner – respecting animal welfare and prioritizing safety.
Most common small predators in Finland:
- Raccoon dog – common in urban and cottage areas, moves discreetly
- Fox – may nest under buildings and spread e.g., mange
- Mink – aggressive predator that threatens waterfowl and small animals
- Martens and weasels – may damage attics, insulation, and poultry houses
- Shrews and voles – may enter buildings, especially in autumn
- Magpies, crows, gulls – not actual predators, but may cause similar harm and require preventive actions
Control always begins with a site assessment
Each control case is different. Effective and safe pest control always starts with a careful inspection.
During the assessment:
- We identify the species and the extent of the infestation
- We inspect the environment, structures, and risk areas
- We discuss the customer's observations and past actions
- We evaluate the best control strategy and any additional measures
Based on the assessment, we create a tailored control plan considering the type of site, safety, environmental factors, and customer preferences.
Control methods are chosen case by case
We may use:
- Non-toxic treatments (e.g., traps)
- Biological or mechanical control
- Structural exclusion methods (sealing, netting, barriers)
- Continuous monitoring and maintenance via annual agreements
We always choose the control method based on the situation to ensure it is as effective, safe, and long-lasting as possible.
