Habitat Consulting and Wildlife Management.
Wildlife.
Managing wildlife is our passion, let us develop a management plan to achieve your goals and objectives.
Game Species
Food Plot Design and Implementation: This is a great opportunity to paint a blank canvas of how your wildlife prefers it. We know what wildlife look for and depend on; initial setup can lead to long-term success.
- Dove Fields
- Turkey plots
- Deer food plots
Electro-fishing surveys: Monitoring and Evaluating your pond/lake status can help you determine species present, population density, liming/fertilization requirements, and a prescription to your goals.
Game camera surveys: The best eyes in the woods. Game cameras can be there when you can’t. A proper survey can tell you buck to doe ratio, age structure, population density, and even a presence of nuisance species (feral hogs, bobcats, coyotes).
Strategic camera, stand, and feeder placement: Placing these in areas that have the highest wildlife density while providing hunting opportunities is what we can help you with.
Trapping: A critical method in managing your habitat. Timing and process is key.
Electric fencing: protect your food plots from undesirable species such as feral hogs while maximizing the potential for desirables.
Professional and experienced hunting guide services: A professional guide can make the hunt more enjoyable, memorable, and successful for your clients/guest. We offer a safe service backed with years of expertise in hunting skills.
Enclosure installation and management: A properly managed enclosure can be very rewarding. The initial establishment and layout is what can help determine your early success.
Wood duck box strategic placement and installation: Think outside the box! Placing these boxes in areas that wood ducks prefer and reducing predation can improve the wood duck population on your piece of ground.
Waterfowl management: Impoundments - Controlling the food available and water depths will be sure to draw them in | Green tree reservoirs - What duck hunter doesn’t love to hunt flooded timber?
Habitat Improvements
Wildlife preferred tree planting: Hard and soft mast are a natural way to draw in the critters.
Custom grafting: We can help you improve the niche in species offered to your wildlife. Heavy mast production and preserving those special trees on your property is our goal.
Invasive species control: Don’t let these species get the best of you and your wildlife. Identifying and controlling these species is highly valuable.
Hack and squirt: Release the beneficial trees that your wildlife prefer.
Hinge-cutting: This method creates travel corridors and improves bedding/nesting areas.
Prescribe burning: Improve wildlife habitat through scarifying seeds to promote herbaceous plants.
Forestry mowing: carving out areas for shooting lanes, secondary roads, and wildlife travel areas is a cutting edge technique.
Native grass implementation and management: These offer bedding/nesting/brooding/and escape areas for wildlife.
Tree and plant I.D.: It’s important to know what’s on your property and enhancements that should be made.
Visual barriers: Reduce the pressure for your wildlife and property lines by using evergreen and tall vegetation.
Non-game Species
Bat box installation: Help improve the habitat and roosting areas for multiple species of bats.
Song bird box installation: This can add aesthetic value and improve wildlife habitat.
Pollinator habitat: A huge value in aesthetics and habitat for birds, bees, and butterflies.
Reptile and amphibians: These guys have habitat requirements too. We know the management techniques to enhance these offerings.
