Most wildlife issues don’t start with a major event. It’s usually a small opening, a bit of noise, or activity that goes unnoticed at first.

Once animals get inside, they settle in quickly.

What starts as a minor issue can turn into structural damage, contamination, and repeat activity if it isn’t handled properly. Removing the animal is only part of the solution - understanding how it got in and correcting that is what actually resolves the problem.

That’s where a structured approach matters.

Inspection and Entry-Point Detection

Bat Removal

Entry Happens Quietly. Removal Needs Precision.

Bats don’t force their way in - they take advantage of small construction gaps that are easy to miss. Once inside, they roost in attic spaces and remain largely undetected until activity increases.

Proper bat removal isn’t immediate. It requires:

  • Confirming active entry points
  • Timing the work correctly based on regulations
  • Installing one-way exclusion systems
  • Sealing the structure only after the colony has exited

If the process is rushed or handled incorrectly, the problem often becomes more complicated.

Squirrel Removal

If They Want In, They’ll Make an Opening

Squirrels don’t rely on existing gaps - they create them.

They will chew through fascia, vents, and soffits to access attic space. Once inside, they continue expanding entry points, which increases both the damage and the likelihood of future intrusion.

Common issues include:

  • Ongoing noise and movement
  • Widening entry points
  • Insulation disruption
  • Repeat access if not properly reinforced

The focus isn’t just removing the squirrel - it’s correcting the access point so it doesn’t happen again.

Other Wildlife Issues We Handle

Not every situation involves bats or squirrels. We also address:

  • Raccoons forcing entry into attics or structures
  • Skunks establishing dens beneath buildings
  • Mice and rodents moving through wall and attic spaces
  • Birds entering vents and openings
  • Groundhogs affecting structural areas around the home

Each requires a different approach based on how they enter and behave once inside.

The Ancon Advantage

Wildlife problems don’t stop at what you see or hear. Most of the issue is happening behind the structure — at the entry point. Fixing it properly means identifying how animals are getting in and correcting it at the source. Not just removing them. That’s how repeat problems are avoided.

Signs Something Is Already Happening

  • Sounds in the attic or walls
  • New openings or visible damage
  • Activity around vents or roof edges
  • Insulation being disturbed
  • Odors that weren’t there before

These signs usually mean the issue has progressed beyond the early stage.

Start With a Clear Understanding of What’s Going On

You don’t need to know exactly what’s happening - but if something feels off, it’s worth getting it looked at properly.

A structured inspection gives you clarity on:

  • What’s inside
  • How it got in
  • What needs to be done to fix it

From there, you can decide how to move forward - with a solution that actually holds up.

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.
