Residential Wildlife Control

We will identify intruders, determine the most effective way to get them out of your home and then customize a solution to keep them from coming back. You’ll have full control of what has access to your home. Guaranteed.

How Wildlife Control Works:

First, we’ll examine your home thoroughly, finding every vulnerability from roof to crawl space, and create a customized plan to secure it against entry.

  • Then our specially trained team will execute the plan – to secure your exterior from foundation to chimney with exclusion services.
  • Our treatment plans also include traditional traps, bait and other tools to ensure that these invaders get out of your home and stay out.
  • We handle trapping and removal of various animals that move in uninvited. Our experts are specially trained to handle common large pests – like raccoons, opossums, squirrels and skunks — and geographically unique ones.

WHAT WILDLIFE CONTROL CAN DO FOR YOU

When rodents, squirrels, bats and other pests invade your home, they are more than an inconvenience. They’re a threat to your property, your health and your sense of security.

These intruders can chew through wires, eat drywall, tear insulation and leave droppings behind. Even common birds, like pigeons and sparrows, can wreak havoc in your home.

Here are the parts of your home we can secure against invaders:

  • Gaps between exterior walls and roofing fascia
  • Roof returns and plumbing vents
  • Attic, turbine and gable vents
  • Dryer, bathroom and oven vents
  • Foundation vents and pipe openings
  • Garage door openings

Our wildlife control service addresses wildlife threats including:

Whether it’s a rat or bird – or a larger pest like a raccoon – Terminix Wildlife Control can put an end to the intrusion. Call us to get rodents and small wildlife out for good.

Common Critters To Watch Out For

Each season brings unique wildlife challenges, but Terminix® has the experience to remove and exclude pests safely. Contact us today for a consultation and protect your home from these common seasonal intruders.


Rodents

Mice and rats are notorious for entering homes in search of warmth. These rodents can chew through wires, damage insulation, and spread diseases through droppings and urine. Infestations can escalate quickly.

Squirrels

Squirrels frequently nest in attics, eaves, and walls during fall and winter. They can damage insulation, chew on wiring, and create fire hazards. Squirrels are agile and persistent, making professional removal crucial.

Opposums

Opossums are nocturnal creatures that may seek shelter under porches, in basements, or inside crawl spaces. Though relatively harmless, they can carry parasites and leave behind messes that attract other pests.

Skunks

Skunks are infamous for their strong odor, but they can also damage lawns and foundations by digging. In colder months, they may burrow under porches or decks, creating a mess and risking spray incidents.

Bats

Most common in warm months, bats often roost in attics during the colder months, where they can introduce health risks through droppings (guano). Their presence also increases the likelihood of bites or rabies exposure. Swift removal and exclusion are essential.

Birds

Birds such as pigeons and starlings can nest in vents, attics, or chimneys, causing blockages and damage to your home. Their droppings also pose health hazards, and nests can be a fire risk when located near electrical components.

Raccoons

Raccoons are strong, clever animals that can break into attics, garages, and chimneys. They are capable of causing significant damage to structures and can transmit diseases like rabies and leptospirosis.

Snakes

As temperatures drop, snakes may seek warmth in basements, crawl spaces, or garages. While many are harmless, some species can pose a danger, making prompt removal important for safety.
