TERMINIX LOGO SMARTER HOME AND YARD

Terminix

Through an in-depth inspection, Terminix’s technicians will determine how, where and why wildlife are entering your property. Then they’ll customize a plan to get them out and keep them out. Their service technicians will use traps, baits and other tools to get wildlife out as well as techniques such as patching, sealing and securing your home’s exterior to ensure that all wildlife stays out.

Wait! You might need your local animal control office.

While an exterminator can help remove rodents, critters, and some wildlife from your home or yard, issues with domestic animals including dogs, cats, and larger wildlife such as deer or coyotes would be a job for animal control. To find the direct line for animal control, visit your town or county’s municipality or Department of Environmental Conservation website.

Wildlife Issue in a Public Space?

Wildlife removal and critter control is done by a private company and at the cost of the homeowner. If you find an injured animal or animal nuisance issue in a public space such as a park or path, a local wildlife rescue or animal control can handle this issue.

The Humane Society has a list of resources by state, available here.

Frequently asked

What is wildlife exclusion?

Every unique animal problem begins with an initial inspection. A Wildlife Consultant will investigate the property for signs of wildlife. Wild animals leave numerous signs of their presence such as droppings, track marks, and entry points.  They will then determine the type of animal and severity of infestation which will allow him/her to create a personalized plan.

Who provides wildlife removal and exclusion services?

Wildlife removal and exclusion services are typically provided by pest control professionals, wildlife management professionals, or animal control officers.

How can I protect my home and yard from wildlife and damage caused by wild animals?

  • Install fencing
  • Place a barrier around water features
  • Trim trees and shrubs
  • Remove food sources
  • Secure garbage

What happens during an inspection from a wildlife removal specialist?

A wildlife removal specialist will inspect the property to determine the type of animal, the size of the infestation, and the areas that may be affected. They will also assess the damage caused by the animals and the best methods of removal. The specialist will then make a plan of action to remove the animals and seal off any entry points. Depending on the severity of the infestation, the specialist may recommend exclusion methods, trapping, baiting, or a combination of all three. They may also offer advice on how to prevent future infestations.

What is wildlife remediation?

Wildlife remediation is the process of removing or repairing environmental damage caused by wildlife. This service is typically provided by certified wildlife removal experts and pest control companies. The process typically involves identifying the source of the wildlife issue, removing the culprit animals, and repairing any damage caused. The length of time needed for wildlife remediation depends on the size and scope of the issue, but it can range from a few hours to several weeks.
