Nuisance wildlife

Many wildlife are well adapted to living near people and as they become accustomed to humans they may cause conflicts. Options for handling issues will vary by species. Learn how to prevent and resolve conflicts with wildlife by clicking on each species below.

Depending on the species (allowed: certain bats, coyote, fox, weasels, mink, raccoon, skunk, opossum, woodchuck, badger, muskrat, squirrels, ground squirrels, rabbits, English sparrows, feral pigeons, starlings, crows and beaver in certain locations — animals not listed are not eligible for removal), you can work with a nuisance animal control company. You can use our nuisance animal control directory to search for a company closest to you. We do not endorse or explicitly recommend any of the business on this list.
