The state's temperate rainforest climate and extensive forested regions create ideal habitats for a variety of wildlife, often leading to interactions with residential and commercial properties.

Choose your city

Washington's distinct seasons significantly influence wildlife activity. The wet, mild winters encourage many species to seek shelter, increasing the likelihood of intrusions into attics and crawl spaces, particularly in the greater Seattle area. Conversely, spring and summer bring heightened activity as animals establish territories and raise young, often resulting in audible disturbances or visible damage. The housing stock, ranging from older Victorian homes with numerous access points to modern constructions, requires tailored exclusion strategies to effectively prevent re-entry.

Common questions

Is there a fee for calling animal control?

Initial consultations with AnimalControl Pros are always free, allowing us to thoroughly assess your situation. The ultimate cost of animal removal is determined by the specific species involved, the extent of the infestation, and the complexity of the required intervention. We detail all potential expenses upfront following a professional evaluation.

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

The 3-3-3 rule is an observational guideline for newly adopted pets, suggesting three days for initial adjustment, three weeks for routine learning, and three months for feeling secure. While not directly applicable to wildlife control, it underscores the importance of professional, patient handling and understanding animal behavior, a principle we apply in our removal services.

Who to call to pick up stray cats?

For stray cat situations in the Seattle area, contacting local animal shelters or humane societies is the primary recommendation, as they manage stray intake. However, if a stray cat presents a public health concern or is inaccessible, AnimalControl Pros can be engaged for professional, safe capture and removal.

What animals does animal control deal with?

AnimalControl Pros specializes in the humane removal of a wide array of nuisance wildlife that frequently invades residential and commercial structures. This includes common species such as squirrels, raccoons, bats, opossums, and various rodents, all of which can cause property damage and pose health risks. Our methods are designed for effective, long-term solutions.

How much does it cost to remove a dead animal?

The expense for dead animal removal is dictated by the size of the animal and its location within the property, such as within wall voids or under decks. Additional costs may arise from necessary decontamination and odor control treatments to fully restore the affected area. A precise estimate is provided after a complete site inspection.

Are there specific permits required for wildlife removal in Washington?

Yes, professionals operating in Washington must comply with regulations set forth by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. These regulations govern the humane treatment of animals, specific trapping methods, and relocation guidelines, especially for certain species, ensuring ethical and lawful wildlife management practices.
