Global wildlife in Florida

Worried about wildlife in your Florida home, perhaps near Tampa, Pompano Beach, or Boca Raton?

We understand the unique challenges Floridians face with everything from raccoons to armadillos, and we're here to help you reclaim your peace of mind.

Choose your city

Florida's subtropical climate means wildlife is active year-round, though certain seasons bring increased activity. Spring and summer's abundant food sources can draw more animals to residential areas, while the milder winters might see them seeking shelter in your home. Our housing stock, often featuring older homes with crawl spaces and attics, can provide easy access for persistent critters. Understanding these seasonal patterns and common entry points is key to effective wildlife control here.

Common questions

How do I get rid of animals in my yard in Florida?

Getting rid of animals in your Florida yard often involves identifying what's there and why they're attracted. Common issues involve raccoons or opossums drawn by food sources or seeking shelter. We focus on humane removal and exclusion to prevent future problems, addressing the root cause rather than just the symptom.

Will Animal Control remove a raccoon for free in Florida?

The cost of wildlife removal in Florida can vary depending on the animal and the complexity of the situation. While some municipal services might offer limited free assistance, professional wildlife control services typically involve a fee. We provide free phone quotes to give you a clear understanding of potential costs before any work begins.

What smells keep animals away in Florida?

While certain strong scents might deter animals temporarily, they are rarely a long-term solution for wildlife problems in Florida. Animals can become accustomed to smells, and they don't address the underlying reasons they are attracted to your property. Effective control involves humane removal and exclusion methods tailored to Florida's wildlife.

Is there a fee for calling animal control in Florida?

Calling a professional wildlife control service in Florida does not typically incur an immediate fee just to speak with us. We offer free phone consultations to discuss your concerns and assess the situation. The actual cost of service depends on the type of animal and the work required for humane removal and prevention.

What is the 3-3-3 rule for animals in Florida?

The '3-3-3 rule' is not a standard guideline in Florida wildlife control. Our approach focuses on understanding the specific behavior and needs of the animals present in your Tampa or Boca Raton area home. We prioritize humane removal and prevention strategies based on expert knowledge, not arbitrary rules.

Are there special permits needed for wildlife removal in Florida?

While you might not need a permit for basic wildlife removal on your property, licensed professionals like us are knowledgeable about Florida's regulations. We ensure all removal and exclusion methods comply with state and local laws, protecting both you and the wildlife in areas like Pompano Beach.
