If you have a problem with wildlife in your Jackson Hole home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Wyoming 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 Wyoming and Jackson Hole, and I recommend the following:
NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Teton County Animal Services: (307) 733-2139
Wildlife and Pest Solutions specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Wyoming also has a documented problem with
bats in buildings, and Wildlife and Pest Solutions 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 307-462-4773 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 2020.
When hiring a company to solve your wild animal problem, you want these features:
Wildlife and Pest Solutions is a full-service Jackson Hole wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Jackson Hole pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all
similar to wildlife removal. Wildlife and Pest Solutions 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.
Jackson Hole wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Wyoming 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 Wyoming law. We offer Jackson Hole raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.
Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Wildlife and Pest Solutions. 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 Jackson Hole 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 Jackson Hole 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 Jackson Hole rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.
Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Wyoming 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 Jackson Hole pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Jackson Hole 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 Jackson Hole trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Jackson Hole 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 and Pest Solutions does both.
The above are just some of the services offered by Wildlife and Pest Solutions. 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 and Pest Solutions
also provides dead animal removal in Jackson Hole. 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 Jackson Hole snake removal - most of the snakes in Wyoming are not venomous, but
call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Jackson Hole. And remember, we are a private business, not Teton County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (307) 733-2139.
Teton County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.
Every wildlife removal situation is different, from the species of animals involved, the location of the animal inside a house or outside, the extent of repairs or cleanup, etc. It's impossible to give one-size-fits-all prices. Examples MIGHT include:
Small Job: For example, a one-stop job to remove an animal in the yard: $100 on up
Medium Job: For example, getting critters out of your house with minor repairs: $300 on up
Large Job: For example, a project involving many service trips and complex work: $500 on up
Give us a phone call now and tell us about your wildlife issue and we will be able to give you a price estimate over the phone. If you're cool with it, we can schedule a same-day or next-day appointment if you like. Our prices are fair, and a good value because we do the job right, the first time.
Jackson Hole Wildlife Tip #1:
Can traps be used to capture snakes?
One of the most efficient methods that can be used to deal with snakes is to trap them and then relocate them. Regardless of where the snake is found, you need to handle it in the most humane way possible. Traps are affordable and you have the choice of using either a high tech or minnow kind of snake trap. There are some steps that need to be followed to enable you to catch that snake successfully.
Snake identification
The venomous snakes pose a great threat, and catching them alone can be a great risk to you and the family at large. There is a need to be very cautious when handling any kind of snake. Remember that if you are careless, your pets or even children could get hurt, and sometimes it can be fatal. If you aren't too confident handling the snake by yourself, then it is better to call in wildlife control, who will gladly do it for you at a price.
You first need to spot the snake. Identifying the species helps to a great extent because you know exactly what you are dealing with and the possible repercussions if you are not careful enough. You will then be able to select a tool or even the appropriate trap that needs to be used.
Glue traps
This is a familiar option that people go for, and it has been used for a long time to catch snakes. However, whether it is humane is a topic of hot discussion. There are different types of snake traps that you can select from. Setting up the snake trap is never a hard thing to do, and it can be a really efficient way to catch them.
You will notice that many of the snake traps that are available in the market usually come with a ready bait so as to entice the snakes and encourage them to use the trap. The bait entices the snake and on entering it gets caught on the floor. To get the snake free from the trap, you only need to pour some vegetable oil on it and the snake is able to slide away.
Minnow traps
This is also a good option, especially when the snakes are many. This is one way to go if you are not really comfortable with glue traps. The trap is cylindrical in shape.
The traps need to be placed strategically. Traps need to be set within areas where snakes are known to frequent. This includes attics, gardens, chicken coops and even the basement.
