Florida's warm, humid climate means wildlife is active year-round, but certain seasons amplify issues. After heavy rains or during breeding seasons, you might notice more activity. Our housing stock, from historic homes to newer constructions, offers various entry points for unwanted guests. We understand the specific challenges faced by residents in areas like Tampa and Boca Raton.

Common questions

What smells keep animals away?

Certain strong scents can deter animals. Ammonia, vinegar, and predator urine are often cited. However, these are typically temporary solutions. For lasting relief in areas like Pompano Beach, professional wildlife removal is often more effective in addressing the root cause of animal presence.

Is there a fee for calling animal control?

There isn't a fee for initial contact to discuss your wildlife concerns. Our goal is to help you understand the situation and the best course of action. We'll discuss your specific needs and provide a clear outline of services and associated costs before any work begins.

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

The '3-3-3 rule' is generally related to how long a newly adopted pet might take to adjust to a new home. It doesn't directly apply to wild animals causing problems. When dealing with nuisance wildlife in Florida, understanding their behavior and habitat is key to effective removal.

Who to call to pick up stray cats?

For stray cats, especially in communities like Tampa, your first call should be to your local animal shelter or a dedicated cat rescue organization. While we focus on wildlife, these organizations are best equipped to handle stray domestic animals and find them appropriate care.

What animals does animal control deal with?

We handle a wide range of nuisance wildlife, including raccoons, opossums, squirrels, bats, and snakes, common in Florida's diverse environments. Our expertise extends to safely and humanely removing these animals from residential and commercial properties across the state, from Boca Raton to beyond.

Are there specific wildlife regulations in Florida?

Yes, Florida has specific regulations regarding the handling and relocation of certain wildlife species. We are well-versed in these rules, ensuring all our services comply with state and local guidelines, protecting both the animals and your property.
