Cranston Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing Cranston, RI

If you have a problem with wildlife in your Cranston home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Rhode Island wildlife removal only. This is a specialty business, and regular pest control companies do not use the proper techniques to solve animal problems. I have spent many years reviewing Rhode Island and Cranston, and I recommend the following:

Bay State Wildlife
Cell Phone: 401-305-2304

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Providence County Animal Services: (401) 464-8700



Bay State Wildlife specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Rhode Island also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Bay State Wildlife is specially trained in bat removal. They also perform general wildlife trapping services, such as the capture and removal of skunks or opossums on the property. Call 401-305-2304 to discuss your critter problem and schedule a same-day or next-day appointment. Click here to learn more about what prices we charge in 2020.

When hiring a company to solve your wild animal problem, you want these features:

  • Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
  • Fully Rhode Island and Providence County licensed and insured
  • Works 7 days per week (critters don't take weekends off)
  • Performs full building inspections: enters and inspects attic
  • Performs exclusion repairs, with guarantee against animal re-entry
  • Offers cleanup of biohazardous wildlife waste

  • Bay State Wildlife is a full-service Cranston wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Cranston pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Bay State Wildlife performs a full inspection of the home or property, and determines why the animal(s) are there, and if inside a building, how the animals got inside. All animals (including rodents) are trapped and removed, or if possible, removed from the building using special exclusion devices. Once the animals are gone, preventative repairs are essential, and cleanup is sometimes recommended.

    Cranston wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Rhode Island to trap without a license. Trap type is very important and there are many different types, bait is somewhat relevant, trap placement is vital, and there are dozens of small things that are very important to know. Safety is a concern. Then once the animal is trapped, it must be removed and dealt with in the proper manner according to Rhode Island law. We offer Cranston raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Bay State Wildlife. Many types of animals like to live in attics. This includes squirrels, raccoons, rats, mice, bats, birds, and even possums. Critters like to go into attics for a safe place to live and raise their young. Removing animals from attics is very complex work, partly because of the presence of baby animals. If you need Cranston squirrel removal, we can remove all the squirrels from your attic, and seal out any future ones. Read more about how to get rid of squirrels.

    Rodent control must be done in a very specific way. First off, the most important thing is that all the openings that rats and mice can use to enter a house be sealed. Then all the rodents must be physically trapped and removed. Never, ever use poison! Most Cranston exterminators will just use this lazy poison technique to kill rodents, and it causes more harm than good - dead stinky rats, and it doesn't solve the problem. Call us for correct Cranston rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

    Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Rhode Island is known to have colonizing bats who often live in buildings. Bats love attics. If not removed, the colony can grow to a very large size over the years. The bat droppings are often corrosive and cause health risks. The same goes for bird droppings on or in buildings. We perform Cranston pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Cranston bat removal. We remove 100% of the bat colony and seal the building so that it's totally bat-proof. Read more about how to get rid of bats.

    If you have animals inside a house, no job is complete without proper exclusion repairs. If you simply hire a Cranston trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Cranston wildlife control company that identifies 100% of the animal entry points into your building, and seals them shut with professional repairs. In addition, in many cases animals have left waste or contamination behind, and you'll want a company that can provide professional cleaning services. Bay State Wildlife does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by Bay State Wildlife. We also trap and remove animals that destroy lawns, such as moles, or digging animals. Sometimes animals like opossums will live under buildings, steal pet food, raid garbage cans, etc. Read about how to get rid of opossums. Skunks commonly live under sheds or decks, and set up a den. We can trap and remove them without them spraying. Read about how to get rid of skunks. Bay State Wildlife also provides dead animal removal in Cranston. If you need help with any other wildlife conflict, from a fox, beaver, groundhog, or any other critter, we can solve it. We also do Cranston snake removal - most of the snakes in Rhode Island are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Cranston. And remember, we are a private business, not Providence County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (401) 464-8700. Providence County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Cranston Wildlife Tip #1:
    Can Rats Hurt You?

    The struggle to keep rats away from your home should be a continuous one to ensure that you and your loved ones are safe from their attacks. The unfortunate aspect is that there are people who don't believe that these animals can actually hurt them. They have this wrong belief that they will only invade their homes and destroy things. This is far from the truth as they have been discovered to be capable of hurting humans.

    If you are still wandering how this can actually happen then you may want to read this post from start to finish. This is because it will be showing you the various ways through which rats can really hurt you and your loved ones. Being exposed to these facts will help you see reasons why you should never leave them to multiply around your home.

    They Can Bite

    Rats can bite and one of the major reasons for such is when they usually feel threatened. Although it is important you know that their bites are usually not severe. However, there are cases where such attacks can lead to something really serious if not given the right medical attention. They are not only going to destroy the things in your home but may also bite during the night when you are asleep.

    They usually bite to protect themselves from any form of attack that you may want to stage against them. Another instance where they can bite is when you are trying to catch them alive in your home. This is why it has been recommended that you use professionals to get rid of them in your home. They understand what it takes to get rid of rats in safe way.

    They Can Cause Emotional Strain

    Do you have an elderly person staying with you who may be suffering from an abnormal condition such as high blood pressure? If that is the case then you need to remove rats from your home so as to avoid any form of shock. Most aged persons don't want to see rats around. Whenever they see them, it could cause some form of tension which may not be good for their health.

    Their Faeces Are Unhealthy

    It has been recommended that you stay away from the droppings of rats as much as you can. This is because coming in contact with them can make you sick. The same applies to their urine and saliva.
