Wildlife Control

Bucks County, PA

As humans build homes and take control of rural areas, this displaces wildlife that originally lived in these locations. Unfortunately, wildlife can show up in backyards and neighborhoods, which is not always a welcome scenario. These encounters are becoming more common. From a skunk hiding under a back patio to a raccoon that simply is not finding a path back to a safer habitat, wildlife control can be a necessity to protect the safety of those living nearby.

Luckily, professional service is available in Newtown to address encounters with animals such as raccoons, moles, groundhogs, squirrels, bats, skunks, possums, and birds.

Wildlife Inspection

A thorough property inspection is an important part of a professional approach to addressing a wildlife problem. This inspection will include an examination of vents, drains, and roofs for signs of access points. There may be other signs that wildlife has been nearby, such as droppings, food scraps, and fur.

Once it is determined that a wildlife pest problem is occurring, appropriate remediation will take place. This inspection is also useful as a way to discover where improvements can be made to prevent wildlife from gaining access again in the future.

Wildlife Trapping

Our trapping methods prioritize the safety and well-being of both property owners and animals. Humane traps are strategically placed to capture animals without harm, allowing for their safe relocation away from human-populated areas. Multiple traps may be deployed in larger areas or when dealing with multiple animals. This approach ensures effective wildlife management while respecting local ecosystems.

Wildlife Prevention

Preventing wildlife from becoming a problem is always ideal, as this reduces the risk of having to deal with damage and messes left behind by intruders. While many of these species may appear to be non-aggressive, wildlife can carry disease, cause destruction, and make life very difficult for property owners.

The most common way for wildlife to gain access to a home, shed, or garage is through gaps and openings. These spaces can result from weather damage, settling, or wear and tear as a structure ages. Homeowners should always take appropriate steps to seal up any spaces that allow potential access.

Signs of a Wildlife Problem

Unusual noises, particularly at night, from walls, attics, or crawl spaces.
Droppings or urine stains around the property.
Messes such as torn garbage bags or scattered debris.
Visual sightings of animals entering or leaving your property.

How to Prevent a Wildlife Problem

Secure Garbage: Use sealed garbage cans and dispose of waste properly.
Seal Entry Points: Close gaps, cracks, and holes in your home’s exterior.
Proper Food Storage: Keep food covered and avoid leaving it outside.
Routine Maintenance: Maintain your property to eliminate potential nesting spots.

How We Provide Wildlife Control

1. Yard (Standard) Trapping

Standard or "Yard Trapping" involves setting a baited cage using a “bait and wait” approach to catch animals that trigger the trap.

2. Positive Set Trapping

Positive set trapping is a method that also involves exclusion. The trap is placed at or over the entry point, removing any wildlife present in the home or business.

3. Wildlife Harvesting

This form of wildlife control employs the hunting or harvesting of the invader. This lethal method utilizes an air rifle to remove the unwanted animal but excludes bats and other wildlife protected by state and/or federal laws.

Bird Control

We perform bird control by identifying all entry points and implementing nets, traps, and exclusion techniques. Our in-house contractor is capable of repairing most wildlife-related damage.

Our experienced team provides safe, effective wildlife control solutions while prioritizing humane practices and legal compliance.
