Worthington Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing Worthington, OH

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

Precise Wildlife Services
Cell Phone: 614-502-7677

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Franklin County Animal Services: 614-525-3400



Precise Wildlife Services specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Ohio also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Precise Wildlife Services 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 614-502-7677 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 Ohio and Franklin 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

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

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

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Precise Wildlife Services. 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 Worthington 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 Worthington 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 Worthington rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

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

    The above are just some of the services offered by Precise Wildlife Services. 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. Precise Wildlife Services also provides dead animal removal in Worthington. 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 Worthington snake removal - most of the snakes in Ohio are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Worthington. And remember, we are a private business, not Franklin County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 614-525-3400. Franklin County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Worthington Wildlife Tip #1:
    Will A Bat In The Attic Have A Nest Of Babies?

    If you have bats in the attic, there are chances that they are female bats. These creatures try to look for some safe and dark corners to give birth to their babies in the breeding season. Note that, squirrels begin their search for nursing colonies in the spring and start building cozy nests to raise them without worrying about predators. Human habitats are their first choice to give birth to the babies.

    Each female bat can give birth to around three or four pups in one season. However, the count may go high depending upon the bat you have in the attic. The babies cannot fly for many months after taking birth, so mothers live them in the roost while moving out for food search.

    While executing bat removal process, one needs to be very careful about state laws. Bats are protected because they are beneficial to get rid of harmful pests and insects. Note that, it is not advised to scare them away during summer months as it is their birthing season and they may have little babies in your attic that are not able to fly. In such case, you may have to wait for few months and let the babies grow to take their independent flights.

    The dates when bats will give birth to babies usually vary as per climate, but in most common cases, the pups come to the world between mid-April and early June. Babies that are born in June must be able to take their flights by the end of August. If you trap the mother bats when the babies are in the roost, they may die due to hunger and lack of care. This is an extremely cruel way of dealing with bat infestation.

    Like other mothers, bats are also very protective towards their babies. If you seal the entry and exit holes in their absence and the babies are trapped inside, they will try to make another hole as soon as possible to get inside. They will even start looking for ways to reach attic through your doors and windows. It is the really terrible situation for people living inside as bats will be flying in the working portions of the home. Experts say that most bat colonies have around 15 female bats and of course, no one would like to see them terribly rushing through your living room and kitchen in search of babies.

    Also, the little grown-up babies may start making efforts to get food by crawling to available spaces. The tiny ones can easily fit into attic cracks and will take very less time to reach your home. Many babies may also die in the walls and cavities during their food search operation. It means, within very few days, you may have more than 40 dead bats in your home and they will start spreading terrible odor in the area. They may also cause an infestation of other insects and bugs that often come to eat the carcass. Hence, it is better to wait for the late August to get rid of bats from your premises.

    Ohio Wildlife Information:

    Ohio State bird: Northern cardinal
    State mammal: White-tailed deer
    State reptile: Northern black racer
    State insect: 7-spotted ladybug

    Welcome to Ohio, the state where there aren't many mountains, but there are plenty of forests and fields for animals to enjoy. Not only does this state have a nice mixture of habitats, the landscape is generally universal when it comes to climate. Ohio does occasionally have a tornado, and it can have an earthquake or two, but most of the time the summers are hot and the winters are cold. This climate eliminates some of the heat-loving critters in the southern states, but it does keep those common creatures that live around homes comfortable.

    The most common nuisance animals in Ohio are raccoons, snakes, bats, geese, swans, squirrels, woodpeckers, skunks, and opossums. Homes in this state are well-insulated against the cold winters, making them ideal locations of critters that like to climb into an attic. Rats are frequent visitors in the city areas, and homeowners without rats usually have a mouse or two. People living closer to nature, or those with an urban raccoon issue, sometimes find the animals up in the attic. This can be particularly problematic, especially because most raccoons in an attic have a littler of babies nearby. While not as common, the occasional opossum will also invade a home in Ohio from time to time.

    Coyotes and black bears rule the food chain in this state, though the bears are less of a nuisance than the intelligent canines. Coyotes will hunt in packs, picking off livestock or entering suburbs where they feed on pets and harass small children. A determined coyote will even climb a fence if it is hungry enough to want the pet inside the yard. The black bears are nuisances mostly at campgrounds or in places where people leave garbage out overnight. The bear is an extremely strong animal, and a secured garbage can lid won't be enough to deter these predators.

    In the river valleys, Ohio has a number of industrious beavers, otters, and muskrats. Homeowners living near streams may find themselves suddenly flooded due to a recently constructed dam. For the most part, muskrat concerns belong to the county. Government officials need to worry about dike walls being compromised by the burrowing muskrat. Due to the decent amount of precipitation this state receives annually, semi-aquatic animals tend to thrive in Ohio.

    You can always call Precise Wildlife Services, any time of day, at 614-502-7677, for a price quote for Worthington wildlife control services. I am confident that this is the best choice amongst wildlife removal companies in Worthington, OH.
