If you have a problem with wildlife in your Weatherford home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Texas 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 Texas and Weatherford, and I recommend the following:

Wildlife X Team
Cell Phone: 940-312-5389

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Parker County Animal Services: (817) 598-4111

Wildlife X Team specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Texas also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Wildlife X Team 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 940-312-5389 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 Texas and Parker 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



Wildlife X Team is a full-service Weatherford wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Weatherford pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Wildlife X Team 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.

Weatherford wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Texas 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 Texas law. We offer Weatherford raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Wildlife X Team. 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 Weatherford 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 Weatherford 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 Weatherford rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Texas 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 Weatherford pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Weatherford 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 Weatherford trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Weatherford 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. Wildlife X Team does both.

The above are just some of the services offered by Wildlife X Team. 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. Wildlife X Team also provides dead animal removal in Weatherford. 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 Weatherford snake removal - most of the snakes in Texas are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Weatherford. And remember, we are a private business, not Parker County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (817) 598-4111. Parker County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Weatherford Wildlife Tip #1:
Will a Raccoon in the Attic Have a Nest of Babies?

During the night time and even at wee hours, you can hear screeching noises from the attic and you can't help but wonder if the raccoons infesting your house will leave a nest of their babies there. It is a major concern for this could mean you can have a hard time removing these pests if they have laid offspring and the more you need to eliminate them as soon as possible.

How to Figure Out What Kind of Raccoon Lives in Your Attic

It can help you to discover what type of raccoon decided to use your attic as a temporary den by observing these signs. Notice the time of day when you can hear most of the noises. Also get to check the type of noise you often hear. Check raccoon's trails being left behind.

How Can You Tell if Raccoons Have a Nest of Babies?

You can tell that the raccoons infesting your house have a nest of babies if you are hearing noises or strange activities in your attic during the birthing season, the time when wildlife search for temporary dens which are secluded so as to guard their young from predators. The birthing months are usually from March through October.

Check the Nesting Wastes

Find out also if they left behind some nesting wastes like small branches of trees or pieces of leaves. Squirrels give birth during winter season in late January and also in summer time in the first weeks of August. You can notice high activity during March and September, the time when their babies are already playing around.

Raccoons, the Most Common Household Annoyance

Raccoons which are considered to be a common annoyance in the household often search for warm and dry places. Female raccoons particularly preparing to give birth to their offspring find a safe den. And because of their immense weight, having them in your attic causes a lot of damage. Raccoons give birth during spring season in the months of March and April. The mother raccoon along with the babies will reside in your attic for a period of 8 months while they are being weaned.

Rats, Most Common Rodents to Invade City Houses

The most common rodent to invade your house is the rat which is ordinarily living in the city and is active the whole year. They can have a nest of babies in your attic and might breed every now and then if not taken care of.

Another kind of rodent giving serious problems in wildlife removal is the bat. Female bats commonly comprise its colony and they give birth to their young every summer season. Bats can reside in one place for a long time and their numbers can significantly increase over time.

Weatherford Wildlife Tip #2:


Texas Wildlife Information:

Texas State bird: Northern mockingbird
State mammal: Nine-banded armadillo, Texas longhorn, Mexican free-tailed bat
State reptile: Texas horned lizard
State amphibian: Texas Toad
State fish: Guadalupe bass
State insect: Monarch butterfly

Texas, the second largest state in the United States, has multiple climate regions, and thus very unpredictable weather patterns. Not only can Texas have tornados, it can be hit with devastating hurricanes or extended periods of drought. West Texas often sees snow, whereas East Texas is almost always hot and dry. Some areas receive ample rain; some areas receive none. All of this variability means any animals living in Texas need to be ready for just about anything.

The regions in Texas where vegetation is scarce and the sun beats down are the prime locations for the many different lizard species living in the state. Of those, the Texas horned lizard spends its days eating the ample supply of ants which also thrive in the dry environment. The desert tortoise also likes to spend time out in the sun, eating prickly pear fruit. Unfortunately, these critters who love to be out in the open are often prey to one of Texas's largest nuisance animals, the coyote. More a bane to farmers, coyotes are opportunistic creatures, smart enough to evade capture and devious enough to break through inadequate fencing. Other large Texas predators, like the cougar and the bobcat, tend to be leery of people, spending most of their time in the scrub forests surrounding rivers like the Rio Grande.

A lack of large predators does not give the state any break from nuisance animals, however. Just like other, smaller states, Texas has significant issues with rodent infestations, including that of rats, mice, and squirrels. Another small animal pest, though not a rodent, is the Mexican free-tail bat, a common creature in the Texas skies at dusk. Bats love to take up residence in attics around the region, and because most areas in Texas are mild during the winter months, the bats will remain all year.

Armadillos also make their presence known in yards around the state. Texas is naturally dry, and a lush yard, which is likely irrigated, will hold a much more enticing amount of bugs for the armored critter. An armadillo can do serious damage to a yard in just one night. If that's not enough, Texas has a good number of both venomous and non-venomous snakes, all of which will be drawn to places with water supplies; aka: pools and ponds.

You can always call Wildlife X Team, any time of day, at 940-312-5389, for a price quote for Weatherford wildlife control services. I am confident that this is the best choice amongst wildlife removal companies in Weatherford, TX.
