O'Fallon Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing O'Fallon, MO

If you have a problem with wildlife in your O'Fallon home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Missouri 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 Missouri and O'Fallon, and I recommend the following:

Boone Wildlife Control
Cell Phone: 636-614-1849

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call St. Charles County Animal Services: 636-240-3200



Boone Wildlife Control specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Missouri also has a documented problem with bats in buildings, and Boone Wildlife Control 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 636-614-1849 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 Missouri and St. Charles 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

  • Boone Wildlife Control is a full-service O'Fallon wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular O'Fallon pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. Boone Wildlife Control 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.

    O'Fallon wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Missouri 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 Missouri law. We offer O'Fallon raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Boone Wildlife Control. 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 O'Fallon 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 O'Fallon 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 O'Fallon rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.

    Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Missouri 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 O'Fallon pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is O'Fallon 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 O'Fallon trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a O'Fallon 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. Boone Wildlife Control does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by Boone Wildlife Control. 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. Boone Wildlife Control also provides dead animal removal in O'Fallon. 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 O'Fallon snake removal - most of the snakes in Missouri are not venomous, but call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in O'Fallon. And remember, we are a private business, not St. Charles County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at 636-240-3200. St. Charles County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    O'Fallon Wildlife Tip #1:
    How to remove an animal living under a house

    Most animals prefer to live under the house simply because it is hard for man and predators to reach it. Removing it from there is hectic but at the same time, we cannot allow it to live there. Below are tips about how to go about it.

    Things to consider before picking any method

    There are so many methods to do this but not all apply to all animals or all situations. Here is what you ought to find out before trying to remove it from under your house. The number of animals living down there, possibility of young ones, the type of animal, and when it goes for hunting to name a few.

    Removing the animal from under a house

    Our mission is to remove all the animals down there alive. Here are some ways of doing that.

    Using your hands to pick the animal from down there. This applies to situations where only one animal live down there and the place that it habits can be reached by hand. However, this does not apply to snakes. They are poisonous. Also, remember to wear gloves. Wild animals can be very infectious.

    Using ammonia or apple cider vinegar. Most animals hate this smell. Placing it at their entry hole is the easiest method of removing the animal from under there.

    Hunting the animal down. This is a traditional method but you can still apply it today. Just be very careful. Some animals are too wild; they can attack you. Others are infectious, so remember to wear protective cloths.

    Waiting for the animal to leave for hunting then closing the entry hole. Find the entry hole first. Then study it to know when the animal leaves for hunting. After it is out, remove the young ones from underneath there if any and close the entry hole. The animal will not access it habitat again.

    Wild animals prefer to live in dark places, therefore, by lighting the animal's habitat, you interfere with the animals comfort and they will have no other option but to leave.

    Ask for professional assistance. Some animals may be living in large masses down there while others may be too dangerous. In such situations, seek for professional assistance.

    Conclusion

    Human harassment turns out to be the most commonly used method of removing animals from underneath the house. However, all the other methods can apply if the animal fails to evict.

    O'Fallon Wildlife Tip #2:


    Missouri Wildlife Information:

    Missouri State bird: Eastern bluebird
    State mammal: Missouri mule
    State reptile: Three-toed box turtle
    State amphibian: North American bullfrog
    State fish: Channel catfish, paddlefish
    State insect: European honeybee

    Missouri is a state that is wetter than most people think. It was originally classified as a southern state, and eventually became grouped with the states in the Midwest. As far as Midwest states go, however, it is full of wet grasslands which gradually culminate through foothills into the Ozark Mountains. Though much of the landscape is flat, the region has a fair amount of forest. It is humid with hot summers and cold winters.

    A state with such ample grasslands is bound to have a good number of large grazing animals, and Missouri definitely fits the bill. This state has white-tailed deer, elk, and American bison. The bison, which are growing in popularity for food consumption around the globe, are in both wild and semi-wild herds. Their numbers are significantly less than when they roamed the plains hundreds of years before pioneers came through.

    No predators are large enough in Missouri to take down a full-sized bison, though sick adults and young calves will occasionally be prey for coyotes or mountain lions. It is rare to see a mountain lion out on the plains; in fact, it is rare to see one of the big cats at all. The species vanished from Missouri in the 1970's only to reappear in the mid 1990's. The game commission in the state does not feel there is a breeding population of the cats, and any cougar sightings are animals that have come in from other states.

    Another creature that enjoys life out in the grasslands is the badger. These aggressive, intimidating animals are excellent diggers, and they live primarily off a diet of rodents found in prairie grass. The badger can be a fierce protector of its den, and people are advised to keep their distance from this critter.

    There is, of course, no shortage of home invading species in Missouri. The state has an ample supply of raccoons, foxes, bats, skunks, porcupines, opossums, nutria, muskrats, and squirrels.

    The wetlands in the region are home to a few animals that are slowly vanishing as the swamps dry up. The swamp rabbit is a critter found in the southern swamps of Missouri, and its numbers have been steadily declining as the wetlands get destroyed. Another species that is gradually going away is the alligator snapping turtle, a reptile that can grow to be 150 pounds.

    You can always call Boone Wildlife Control, any time of day, at 636-614-1849, for a price quote for O'Fallon wildlife control services. I am confident that this is the best choice amongst wildlife removal companies in O'Fallon, MO.
