Wildlife Pest Control Services

Serving all of Vermont

Out in nature, wild animals are a normal part of life. However, no one wants to deal with wild animals on their property! Just like pests, wild animals are always on the hunt for food and shelter. They are unpredictable, which is why wildlife removal should always be handled by a pest control company.

At Vermont Pest Control, our wildlife control experts will work with you to keep wild animals out of your property year-round.

Squirrels in Vermont

Vermont is home to many beautiful creatures and animals, but that doesn’t mean we want them all invading our home! Any homeowner in the state will tell you that squirrels can become a nuisance when they enter yards and homes. Squirrels frequently enter homes in the winter. Once inside, they may cause considerable damage to HVAC systems and attic insulation. To keep pesky squirrels out of your home, it’s best to work with our team of wildlife removal experts.

Voles in Vermont

These small rodents may seem harmless, but voles can cause significant damage to your Vermont property. Voles are known for creating extensive tunnel systems throughout lawns and gardens, destroying root systems, and gnawing on the bark of trees and shrubs. During winter months, voles remain active beneath the snow, often leaving homeowners with a nasty surprise come spring. If you’ve noticed raised ridges in your lawn or damage to your landscaping, our wildlife control team can help eliminate voles and protect your property.

Skunks in Vermont

While skunks play a role in our local ecosystem, having them take up residence on your property can be a smelly situation (literally). Skunks are known for digging up lawns in search of grubs and insects, burrowing under porches and sheds, and of course, spraying their notorious odor when threatened. Beyond the smell, skunks can also carry rabies and other diseases. If you’ve spotted a skunk on your property or noticed their distinctive musk, contact our wildlife removal experts for safe and effective skunk control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to do your own wildlife removal?

While it is safe to take preventative measures against wildlife, we do not recommend that you try to handle any wild animals on your property on your own. Some wild animals in Vermont can become hostile when they feel threatened and can possibly even carry and spread dangerous diseases.

Are squirrels dangerous?

While squirrels are known for running away when faced with any sort of confrontation, they are associated with some real dangers by way of property damage. They can cause power outages, chew through insulation and wiring, and even disrupt our HVAC systems.
