Wildlife Removal Service in Central Florida
Central Florida's natural environment is one of the things that make it such a unique and beautiful place to live. But that same environment means homeowners and property managers regularly find themselves sharing space with wildlife that has no business being inside a home, crawlspace, attic, or commercial building. Raccoons tearing through trash and nesting in attics, opossums taking up residence under decks, squirrels chewing through wiring, and bats colonizing roof spaces are all part of life in this region, and all of them require a professional hand to resolve safely and effectively.
Wildlife problems are different from typical pest control situations. The animals involved are larger, more unpredictable, and in many cases protected under state and local regulations that govern how they can be handled and relocated. Attempting to remove wildlife on your own can be dangerous, and doing it incorrectly can make the problem worse. Pro Service Pest Solutions provides humane wildlife removal and control throughout the Orlando metro and across Central Florida, using methods that are safe for the animals, safe for your family, and built around a lasting solution rather than a temporary fix.
What to Expect From Our Service
Wildlife removal requires a methodical approach that goes beyond simply trapping an animal and calling it done. Getting the animal off the property is only part of the solution. Understanding how it got there, what attracted it, and how to prevent it from happening again is just as important. Here's what our process looks like:
- Initial assessment: We start with a thorough inspection of your property to identify the species involved, locate entry points and nesting or denning areas, and assess any damage that has already been done
- Treatment and removal plan: Based on what we find, we'll put together a customized removal plan using the most appropriate and humane methods for the species and situation. For most wildlife, this means trapping and relocation rather than extermination
- Active trapping and removal: We set and monitor traps at strategic locations on your property, checking them regularly until the animal or animals have been successfully captured and relocated
- Entry point identification and exclusion: Once the animal is removed, we identify and address the entry points it was using to access your home or structure. This step is critical because without it, new animals will simply move into the same spaces
- Damage assessment: We'll document any damage we find during the process, whether that's chewed wiring, compromised insulation, structural damage around entry points, or contamination from nesting materials or droppings, and let you know what repairs may be needed
- Preventative guidance: We'll walk you through the conditions on your property that may be attracting wildlife, from unsecured trash and outdoor food sources to overgrown vegetation and gaps in your roofline, and give you practical steps to reduce the likelihood of future issues
- Follow-up: We'll check back in after removal to confirm the situation has been fully resolved and that no new activity has started

Wildlife Commonly Found on Central Florida Properties
Central Florida's diverse ecosystem means homeowners here encounter a wider variety of wildlife than most parts of the country. Here's a look at the species we most commonly handle and what makes each one a concern:
- Raccoons: Highly intelligent and adaptable, raccoons are one of the most common wildlife nuisance calls we receive. They're strong enough to tear through roof materials and soffits to access attics, where they nest and cause significant damage. They're also known carriers of rabies and other diseases, making professional removal especially important.
- Opossums: Opossums frequently den under decks, porches, and crawlspaces. While they're generally non-aggressive, their presence can attract other pests and their nesting materials can create sanitation issues over time.
- Squirrels: Squirrels are agile climbers that commonly enter homes through gaps in rooflines, soffit vents, and around utility penetrations. Once inside, they chew on wiring, insulation, and structural wood, creating fire hazards and costly damage.
- Bats: Bats are protected under Florida law, which means their removal is subject to specific regulations including seasonal restrictions during maternity season. They commonly roost in attics and roof spaces and can leave behind significant accumulations of guano that create health and structural concerns. Our team is experienced in safe, compliant bat exclusion.
- Armadillos: Armadillos are prolific diggers that can cause serious damage to lawns, landscaping, and even foundations as they root around for insects and grubs. They're increasingly common throughout Central Florida and can be persistent once they've established a foraging routine on your property.
