Wildlife Exclusion

Wildlife Exclusion

Humane solutions for Tampa's urban wildlife.

From raccoons in Seminole Heights attics to armadillos digging up Westchase lawns, Tampa's wildlife often becomes too comfortable around homes. Our exclusion services humanely remove animals while preventing future intrusions with durable barriers.

After identifying entry points (often through damaged roof vents or gaps under eaves), we install one-way doors that let animals exit but not return. Once certain the animals have left, we seal all openings with heavy-duty materials like steel wool and hardware cloth - materials rodents can't chew through.

For persistent problems like squirrels in bungalow attics or iguanas on waterfront properties, we may recommend habitat modification tips such as trimming tree branches away from roofs or installing underground barriers. All methods comply with Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What animals do you commonly exclude in Tampa?

Raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and bats are most frequent. We also handle armadillos, iguanas, and occasional snakes in suburban areas.

Most projects are completed in 1-3 days depending on the animal's habits and the structure's complexity. We monitor to ensure all animals have exited before final sealing.
