If you have a problem with wildlife in your Oviedo home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in Florida 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 Florida and Oviedo, and I recommend the following:
NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call Seminole County Animal Services: (407) 665-5201
Affordable Wildlife Removal specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. Florida also has a documented problem with
bats in buildings, and Affordable Wildlife Removal 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 407-966-4964 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:
Affordable Wildlife Removal is a full-service Oviedo wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Oviedo pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all
similar to wildlife removal. Affordable Wildlife Removal 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.
Oviedo wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in Florida 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 Florida law. We offer Oviedo raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.
Animals in attics - this is our specialty at Affordable Wildlife Removal. 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 Oviedo 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 Oviedo 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 Oviedo rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.
Bat removal is a highly specialized task. Florida 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 Oviedo pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Oviedo 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 Oviedo trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Oviedo 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. Affordable Wildlife Removal does both.
The above are just some of the services offered by Affordable Wildlife Removal. 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. Affordable Wildlife Removal
also provides dead animal removal in Oviedo. 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 Oviedo snake removal - most of the snakes in Florida are not venomous, but
call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Oviedo. And remember, we are a private business, not Seminole County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (407) 665-5201.
Seminole County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

Oviedo Wildlife Tip #1:
Is it safe to handle a skunk with bare hands?
For some, finding a harmed undomesticated wildlife animal represents an issue: we need to help the creature by getting it to security, however we stress that our help will accomplish more damage to them particularly with the skunk. Taking after are a few rules to make the help we offer harmed natural life powerful and safe. Disastrously, the dominant part of getting rid of them, stranded and harmed creatures endure because of human causes. This is especially the case in city territories. Some of these cases are inadvertent, yet numerous are preventable: cars, trains, harms, oil slicks, pets and high line wires would all be able to make hurt natural life.
What would it be a good idea for you to do in the event that you locate a harmed creature? To start, take note of that allows for state and government natural life offices are required to have untamed life. Accordingly, it is fundamental to leave long haul natural life treatment in the hands of preparedness experts, for example, an untamed life rehabilitator. Notwithstanding, there are a few stages you can take to guarantee that injured critters get the consideration they require. This article recognizes rabbits; raccoons, skunks and foxes; squirrels; and feathered creatures, in its bids on getting and conveying hurt creatures.
Infant raccoons, skunks and foxes frequently play in the forested areas under their moms' care. It is best to watch these children from a separation to figure out if the mother is viewing over them. In the event that the mother has been murdered, children may meander outside of the nook in appetite, and might be crying, frail or wiped out. For this situation, the children require consideration. Try not to lift these babies up with your bare hands - they are the most well-known transporters of rabies. Maybe, get them via precisely tossing a container or sheet over them.
In the event that you utilize a container, take after the same strategy with respect to grown-up rabbits; if utilizing a sheet, the sheet can be raised around the creature and entwined to contain the creature amid transport (or the creature and sheet can be put inside a cardboard box). If you locate a harmed grown-up raccoon, skunk, or fox, it is suggested that you quickly call a wildlife rehabilitator for help; these creatures are very liable to convey rabies, and to chomp out of dread. Just keep in mind that you must never hold the skunks with your bare hands, because if it will be threatened, it will emit the foul odor from its glands and that may sting your eyes. The smell will stick to you for more than 6 months and anything you will come cross with will also be affected by the smell.
Oviedo Wildlife Tip #2:
Florida Wildlife Information:
Florida State bird: Northern mockingbird
State mammal: Florida panther, manatee, dolphin
State reptile: Loggerhead sea turtle
State fish: Florida largemouth bass, Atlantic sailfish
State insect: Zebra longwing
Florida's climate is hot and damp, making it a prime place for reptiles, amphibians, and other semi-aquatic animals. There are a good number of raccoons, rabbits, squirrels, and rats, and it seems these common pest creatures plague homeowners in almost every state. In addition to the common property visitors, Florida also has four venomous snake species: rattlesnakes, cottonmouths, coral snakes, and copperheads. Because of how warm the state is, snakes are often out sunning themselves pool side. All reptiles are drawn to water, and because of the constant warm temperatures, many homes in Florida have pools.
Snakes aren't the only creatures invading yards. Armadillos in Florida are capable of coming into a yard and digging a burrow in one night. While they rarely, if ever, invade the home itself, the damage these creatures can cause to a yard is impressive. If you've got to have one or the other, however, most people would take the armadillo over the snakes.
While almost tropical in its climate, Florida is home to a massive expanse of swamp land known as The Everglades National Park. This huge plot of land is home to alligators, turtles, lizards, raccoons, rabbits, and snakes. The red tailed boa now makes the park its home, though the snake is not a native species of North America. This has caused some concern with the local wildlife authorities, as populations of smaller mammals have been steadily declining due to predation by the large serpents. It is expected that alligators and Florida panthers will eventually become prey for the invading species.
Land-loving predators that are sometimes nuisances are primarily black bears. These large, intimidating animals have learned how easy it is to pick through human garbage and to raid campsites. It only takes a bear one or two successful raids before it becomes problematic. Coyotes are also a common nuisance predator in the state. Like the bears, coyotes become opportunistic, feeding off of livestock, pets, and human refuse.
The population of Florida is growing annually, and it is a popular state for retirees. Eventually, more and more people will displace the animals of Florida, causing clashes. A good example of this is with the alligator population, which lives in many of the waterways, regardless of how close to human civilization. The alligators aren't fearful, so they hold their ground and usually must be removed by professionals.
