Dallas Wild Hog Control

Wild hogs are some of the most dangerous and destructive invasive creatures in the United States. They’re estimated to cost property owners over a billion dollars in damage each year. They’re highly intelligent, adaptable, fast runners, and eat just about anything. Handling a wild hog invasion requires expert assistance and shouldn’t be attempted by untrained individuals.

Wild hogs are omnivores and will eat just about whatever they can find, from fruits, roots, vegetables, and nuts to small animals, snakes, birds, and insects. They’ve also been known to eat carrion and can threaten local ecosystems with the damage they do to forests, soil, and the contamination of water sources.

These invasive creatures are known to plunder yards and fields at night, looking for anything they can possibly eat. They aren’t subtle creatures, and whatever they don’t eat is often trampled, dug up, or crushed. Livestock are also at risk, as wild hogs may attack and attempt to eat smaller animals. They’re notoriously aggressive, and some grow sharp tusks capable of goring humans. They will charge if provoked, and in addition to the wounds they can inflict, they carry several infectious diseases. Wild hogs are some of the most dangerous animals that can invade a property, which is why they’re popular among game hunters.
