Eldersburg Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing Eldersburg, MD

If you have a problem with wildlife in your Eldersburg home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Maryland wildlife removal only. This is a specialty business, and regular pest control companies do not use the proper techniques to solve animal problems. I have spent many years reviewing Maryland and Eldersburg, and I recommend the following:

Wildlife Control Pro
Cell Phone: 410-702-5394

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Carroll County Animal Services: 410-848-4810



Wildlife Control Pro specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Maryland also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Wildlife Control Pro is specially trained in bat removal. They also perform general wildlife trapping services, such as the capture and removal of skunks or opossums on the property. Call 410-702-5394 to discuss your critter problem and schedule a same-day or next-day appointment. Click here to learn more about what prices we charge in 2022.

When hiring a company to solve your wild animal problem, you want these features:

  • Specializes in wildlife removal, not pest control
  • Fully Maryland and Carroll County licensed and insured
  • Works 7 days per week (critters don't take weekends off)
  • Performs full building inspections: enters and inspects attic
  • Performs exclusion repairs, with guarantee against animal re-entry
  • Offers cleanup of biohazardous wildlife waste

  • Wildlife Control Pro is a full-service Eldersburg wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Eldersburg pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Wildlife Control Pro performs a full inspection of the home or property, and determines why the animal(s) are there, and if inside a building, how the animals got inside. All animals (including rodents) are trapped and removed, or if possible, removed from the building using special exclusion devices. Once the animals are gone, preventative repairs are essential, and cleanup is sometimes recommended.

    Eldersburg wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Maryland to trap without a license. Trap type is very important and there are many different types, bait is somewhat relevant, trap placement is vital, and there are dozens of small things that are very important to know. Safety is a concern. Then once the animal is trapped, it must be removed and dealt with in the proper manner according to Maryland law. We offer Eldersburg raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Wildlife Control Pro. Many types of animals like to live in attics. This includes squirrels, raccoons, rats, mice, bats, birds, and even possums. Critters like to go into attics for a safe place to live and raise their young. Removing animals from attics is very complex work, partly because of the presence of baby animals. If you need Eldersburg squirrel removal, we can remove all the squirrels from your attic, and seal out any future ones. Read more about how to get rid of squirrels.

    Rodent control must be done in a very specific way. First off, the most important thing is that all the openings that rats and mice can use to enter a house be sealed. Then all the rodents must be physically trapped and removed. Never, ever use poison! Most Eldersburg exterminators will just use this lazy poison technique to kill rodents, and it causes more harm than good - dead stinky rats, and it doesn't solve the problem. Call us for correct Eldersburg rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

    Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Maryland is known to have colonizing bats who often live in buildings. Bats love attics. If not removed, the colony can grow to a very large size over the years. The bat droppings are often corrosive and cause health risks. The same goes for bird droppings on or in buildings. We perform Eldersburg pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Eldersburg bat removal. We remove 100% of the bat colony and seal the building so that it's totally bat-proof. Read more about how to get rid of bats.

    If you have animals inside a house, no job is complete without proper exclusion repairs. If you simply hire a Eldersburg trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Eldersburg wildlife control company that identifies 100% of the animal entry points into your building, and seals them shut with professional repairs. In addition, in many cases animals have left waste or contamination behind, and you'll want a company that can provide professional cleaning services. Wildlife Control Pro does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by Wildlife Control Pro. We also trap and remove animals that destroy lawns, such as moles, or digging animals. Sometimes animals like opossums will live under buildings, steal pet food, raid garbage cans, etc. Read about how to get rid of opossums. Skunks commonly live under sheds or decks, and set up a den. We can trap and remove them without them spraying. Read about how to get rid of skunks. Wildlife Control Pro also provides dead animal removal in Eldersburg. If you need help with any other wildlife conflict, from a fox, beaver, groundhog, or any other critter, we can solve it. We also do Eldersburg snake removal - most of the snakes in Maryland are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Eldersburg. And remember, we are a private business, not Carroll County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 410-848-4810. Carroll County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Eldersburg Wildlife Tip #1:
    Is skunk feces dangerous to touch or breathe?

    According to some studies the feces of skunks is dangerous if inhaled or touched. Other than its stinky features, skunks carry few diseases which can get into human body and other animals. Common modes of transmission of these diseases is touching the feces or inhaling it through air.

    Recognizing skunk feces

    For avoiding breathing and touching the skunk feces, you are needed to know how it seem like. The shape of feces is tubular, around 1 inch in length and seems like the car feces. Often it has undigested food materials in it - undigested grass, nuts, insects, feathers, berries, seeds etc. Few times, the feces may seem like spots as the skunks.

    Diseases that get contracted by breathing or touching skunk feces

    There are various sorts of diseases which are linked with contacting the skunk feces. Few of these are airborne while rest of them get contracted through skin interaction by skunk droppings or just by their bodies. Few of these diseases are:

    Rabies - Other than bats, skunks are the second animals which carry the virus of rabies. They are capable to spread many lethal diseases to different animals and human beings. Though, mot every skunk carries rabies, it is good to be clear of the animals and look for the symptoms of the illness.

    Baylisascaris columnaris - It is linked with the skunks. In this disease, a damage to the liver, blindness, brain dysfunction, itching can occur, which finally causes death of patient.

    Canine distemper - This disease doesn't affect the humans. It affects animals only. It can cause the bodily swellings and bodily discharge causing death of an infected animal.

    Listeriosis - This disease affects both animals and humans, and its symptoms does involve diarrhea, itching, brain swelling, paralysis and fatigue.

    Maryland Wildlife Information:

    Maryland State bird: Baltimore oriole
    State mammal: Thoroughbred, calico cat, Chesapeake Bay retriever
    State reptile: Diamondback terrapin
    State fish: Striped bass
    State insect: Baltimore checkerspot butterfly

    Maryland is one of the most diverse states in the country, and it is so unique in its variety of habitats, it has been dubbed "America in miniature". This nickname is due to the fact the state has sand dunes, sea grass, swamps with tall cypress trees, thick oak forests on rolling hills, and mountains covered in pine woods. Despite the multiple ecosystems that exist in Maryland, there are no natural lakes in the state. Glacial activity did not extend into Maryland, and no deep holes were present to hold massive volumes of water. There are numerous natural ponds, but mankind has been forced to make the now plentiful lakes in the state.

    Maryland is one of only a few states that have a population of wild horses. No horses in the United States are native; every herd is descended from stock brought over by explorers or settlers when the continent was first discovered. The horses in Maryland are contained on coastal islands. The horses are protected by law, and are allowed to roam free because of their historical relevance.

    Horses aren't the only large grazers that aren't native to Maryland. Sika deer were originally introduced to the state, and are now populous enough to warrant a hunting season. The largest native grazer is the American elk, followed by the white-tailed deer.

    Maryland doesn't just have large grazers, it also has large predators. Black bear are the most common large predators in the state, followed by coyotes in frequency of sightings. Wolves and mountain lions are much more reclusive but also share territory in the state.

    Maryland wouldn't be complete without a list of common animals. Anywhere in the region you can find skunks, raccoons, porcupines, foxes, opossums, voles, moles, woodchucks, fishers, nutria, ermine, and mink. There are also bats, snakes, and a host of amphibians.

    Being a coastal state, Maryland has an abundance of marine life, many of which are showcased in the Baltimore Aquarium. The list of marine wildlife includes sperm whales, beaked whales, dolphins, porpoises, humpback whales, and manatees. Of course, with a beach environment comes a large population of seagulls. Seagulls are one of the most problematic nuisance birds for business and homeowners along the coast. Their droppings are highly corrosive and can pose health risks for people.
