Wells Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing Wells, ME

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

Animal Control Pros
Cell Phone: 207-560-9351

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call York County Animal Services: (603) 436-8279



Animal Control Pros specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Maine also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Animal Control Pros 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 207-560-9351 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 2022.

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

  • Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
  • Fully Maine and York 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

  • Animal Control Pros is a full-service Wells wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Wells pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Animal Control Pros 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.

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

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Animal Control Pros. 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 Wells 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 Wells 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 Wells rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

    Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Maine 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 Wells pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Wells 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 Wells trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Wells 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. Animal Control Pros does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by Animal Control Pros. 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. Animal Control Pros also provides dead animal removal in Wells. 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 Wells snake removal - most of the snakes in Maine are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Wells. And remember, we are a private business, not York County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (603) 436-8279. York County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Wells Wildlife Tip #1:
    How to scare geese away
    Some people are not aware that geese, in fact, are a problem. Geese leave large moist droppings everywhere they go, and people at lakes were slipping over. Geese tend to build nests near people's ponds or dams and create a nuisance and a mess in the pond.There is also the fact to bear in mind when looking at deterring geese away, the fact is birds get used to things that don't change.There is no need to be using rifles or traps when getting rid of geese there are humane ways to deal with geese. As with most animals find the solution to prevent geese from you water areas before the problem starts.

    If one goose appears then put in a plan to prevent more geese from coming and nesting where they feel like it. This way you are dealing with one goose rather than a large population that is hard to get deterred away.

    There are laws protecting geese so make sure you do your research and find out how it will affect you before acting. There are penalties in place for anyone who kill or harass geese without a permit from the local council.It is illegal to move or destroy any waterfowls when they are in their nesting seasons, and the punishment is not just a warning so be sure to check the laws first.

    First off, the rank is the most common like all things stop feeding the geese. This includes other wildlife too as geese will be attracted to the feed. Human food is not good for birds but on the other hand if geese are hand fed or have food available to them frequently they become domesticated therefore attracting more geese to the area.

    One simple yet effective deterrent for geese is by buying some artificial swan families and putting them in your pond or dam. Swans will defend their young and become aggressive towards other birds who go near their water. Like other birds, the geese will become used to the swans and realize they are not real so it's best to only put the artificial swans in the ponds and dams when it is the migratory season for the geese.

    Restrict the access to your pond. Building a dock that is quite high, so the geese cannot get over it or some bird wire around the lake or pond again high enough to ensure they can't get over it.

    You can buy Edgewater fencing that will keep geese away from the water's edge. Geese do not like obstructions around lakes or ponds they like a clear path to the water. Edgewater is quite attractive to put around your fence and can be customized with colors.

    Gator guard is another clever deterrent that is a gator head with mirrored eyes. This tricks the geese into thinking they are being watched by a gator. The gator guard moves with the wind, so it can trick the geese into thinking it is actually real.

    By planning and preventing you will become a professional on how to scare geese away. You will soon have your water areas free from geese and annoying birds.
