Choose your city
Montana's housing stock, ranging from ranches to suburban homes, offers various environments for wildlife. Animals like raccoons, skunks, and rodents may seek entry through openings in attics, garages, or foundations. Our removal process begins with a thorough site assessment to identify the animal, its access points, and the extent of the infestation. We then employ humane trapping or exclusion techniques tailored to the specific wildlife and location. The final step involves securing your property to prevent future intrusions and advising on preventative measures to maintain a wildlife-free environment.
Common questions
How do I get rid of animals in my yard?
To remove animals from your yard, we first identify the species present and assess their activity. We then use targeted trapping or exclusion methods based on the animal's behavior and the yard's layout. Our goal is to safely remove the animals and seal off potential entry points to prevent them from returning.
Will Animal Control remove a raccoon for free?
Free removal services for raccoons are not standard. Our company operates on a fee-for-service model to cover the costs of specialized equipment, trained technicians, and the labor involved in humane animal removal. We provide a free phone quote to discuss your specific situation and outline the costs.
What smells keep animals away?
While some strong scents like ammonia or predator urine can deter certain animals temporarily, they are not a permanent solution for removal. Effective wildlife control requires identifying and addressing the animals' needs for shelter and food, and physically excluding them from your property.
Is there a fee for calling animal control?
There is no fee to call us and discuss your wildlife concerns. We offer a free phone consultation to understand the problem you are experiencing. This initial call allows us to gather information and provide you with an estimate of the services required and their associated costs.
What is the 3-3-3 rule for animals?
The 3-3-3 rule often refers to the time it takes for a newly adopted pet to adjust: 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn routines, and 3 months to feel at home. This rule does not directly apply to wild animal removal processes, which focus on immediate humane trapping and exclusion.
How does Montana's weather affect wildlife in homes?
Montana's harsh winters drive many animals, such as rodents and raccoons, to seek warmth and shelter inside buildings and attics. During milder seasons, animals might enter properties in search of food or nesting sites. Our removal strategies are adjusted to address these seasonal motivations.
