Queen Anne's County Wildlife Animal Control

Professional Wildlife Removal Company Servicing Queen Anne's County, MD

If you have a problem with wildlife in your Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County, and I recommend the following:

District Wildlife Solutions
Cell Phone: 410-777-8915

NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call the County Animal Services: (410) 827-7178



District Wildlife Solutions 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 District Wildlife 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 410-777-8915 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 the 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

  • District Wildlife Solutions is a full-service Queen Anne's County wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Queen Anne's County pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all similar to wildlife removal. District Wildlife 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.

    Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.

    Animals in attics - this is our specialty at District Wildlife 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 Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Queen Anne's County 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. District Wildlife Solutions does both.

    The above are just some of the services offered by District Wildlife 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. District Wildlife Solutions also provides dead animal removal in Queen Anne's County. 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 Queen Anne's County 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 Queen Anne's County. And remember, we are a private business, not the County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (410) 827-7178. the County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.

    Queen Anne's County Wildlife Tip #1:
    How to trap a fox

    Sometimes things just need to stop moving for a minute for you to work out what is going on. This includes if there is a fox in your garden. Capturing it stops the fox dead in its tracks, without killing it. However, this may not be as easy as it sounds due to the fact that foxes are in fact extremely clever and won't be easily fooled. So how DO you trap a fox?

    Side note: before you start trapping wild foxes, make sure that there aren't any laws surrounding this in you area, as although foxes can be a nuisance, they are much better than the wolves.

    The first thing to point out is you want to use a live trap, one which doesn't hurt the fox but just contains it (although this doesn't completely rule out the chance of the fox injuring itself. You will want to insensitive the animal to go into the cage, by baiting it with some food that it likes. You will then want to place the cage near to where you think the foxes will go, so not too far from the hole (if you can find it) is usually a good idea.

    Wait for a day, see if the fox has taken the bait. If not wait and check the following day. Wait and replace the bait if needed until it is caught. Ensure that you don't end up killing a fox by leaving it in the cage. Realise it back into the environment, preferably you will have put up measures to stop foxes from entering your house (such as putting up fences) and then releasing it not too far away as to make sure it doesn't die of starvation/dehydration. If an animal is severely injured due to it trying to break free, the best course of action is to euthanize it. Make sure though that this is a quick and relatively painless way for the fox to die.

    Make sure that there isn't a litter still left in the hole with the mother- you may have to wait a few weeks for them to move out of the hole if this is the case (they dont leave the den).

    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.
