Wildlife activity around a home often shows up gradually before turning into a larger issue: light scratching overhead, disturbed insulation, or subtle roofline damage. Our team provides professional wildlife removal and exclusion services designed to resolve active problems and reduce the chances of animals returning. The focus is on careful inspection, humane removal, and durable repairs that protect the structure long term.

Bat Removal & Attic Services

Bats are drawn to attics that offer warmth, darkness, and small roofline openings. Once established, a colony can leave behind guano, odors, and insulation damage that affect air quality and comfort.

Bat services typically include:

  • Detailed attic and exterior roofline inspection
  • Identification of roosting areas and flight paths
  • Installation of one-way exclusion devices at the appropriate time of year
  • Sealing and reinforcement of access points after bats have exited
  • Optional guano cleanup and attic sanitization

This approach removes bat activity while preserving proper attic ventilation.

Squirrel Removal & Roofline Protection

Squirrels often access homes through soffits, fascia gaps, or damaged vents. Inside the attic, they nest, chew wiring, and pull apart insulation, which can quickly lead to expensive repairs.

Squirrel control generally involves:

  • Locating entry points and travel routes
  • Installing one-way exits when squirrels are present
  • Reinforcing weak areas with metal flashing and wildlife-grade screening
  • Recommendations to reduce access from nearby trees and structures

The goal is to stop current activity and make the roofline far less inviting going forward.

Other Wildlife Services

In addition to bats and squirrels, we regularly assist with:

  • Mice and rat issues inside walls, attics, and basements
  • Raccoons accessing attics, chimneys, or soffits
  • Skunks denning near foundations or decks
  • Groundhogs and opossums causing yard or structural damage
  • Birds nesting in vents, eaves, or attic openings

Each service is adapted to the species involved and the layout of the property.

Testimonials

  • After calling and hiring a competitor company, which failed miserably at solving my squirrel problem, I found Ancon Wildlife Services. Dave came out and performed an inspection of my home and informed me that the solution to my problem would be accomplished through a process known as exclusion. The other company only offered trapping services and didn't seem as knowledgeable. Dave informed me that a good portion of Ancon's customers have had a similar experience with other animal control companies. from start to finish I felt good about doing business with Ancon. I highly reccomend their service and I wish I would have called them first.

  • Mike was awesome! my experience should have been filmed and put on T.V.! Seriously. We were hearing chirping noises in our fire place and called Ancon. Mike climbed up on the roof and some how motivated the raccoon to the top. He then wrestled the critter out of the chimney with a pole of some sort and put it in cage. WOW! He wasnt done yet...he went back in the living room and removed the baby raccoons from the fireplace put them in cage and informed me that he would relocate the family all together. Fearless and caring, these guys are incredible! He then installed an animal proof chimney cap to prevent any future animal problems. Top notch service and excitement to boot.
