Humane Animal Removal Services

Animals such as birds, squirrels, and raccoons often seek shelter in chimneys, dryer vents, or other parts of your home. While they may seem harmless, their presence can cause blockages, damage, and health risks. At Y.E Chimney Services, we specialize in humane animal removal to protect your home while ensuring the safe relocation of these creatures. Proudly serving homeowners across Minnesota, we’re your trusted partner for safe and effective animal removal.

Why Humane Animal Removal is Important

Wild animals in your chimney or vents can lead to several issues, including:

  • Blockages: Nests, debris, and animal waste can obstruct airflow, increasing the risk of chimney fires or carbon monoxide buildup.
  • Structural Damage: Animals can damage flue liners, masonry, or vent systems while trying to gain entry.
  • Health Risks: Droppings and parasites left behind by animals can pose serious health hazards.
  • Unpleasant Odors: Decomposing debris or waste can produce foul smells that permeate your home.

Removing these animals safely and humanely protects both your home and the wildlife.
