You hear scratching in the attic at 2 a.m. You find droppings in the garage. You smell something dead in the walls but can’t find it. These aren’t problems that fix themselves, and they get worse the longer you wait.
When wildlife gets into your home in Cana, you’re dealing with more than just noise. Raccoons tear through insulation and chew electrical wires. Squirrels breed fast and create fire hazards. Bats leave droppings that carry histoplasmosis. The damage compounds daily.
Professional wildlife removal means the animal is out, the entry points are sealed, and the mess is cleaned up. You’re not just paying someone to set a trap. You’re getting your home back to normal—without the health risks, without the recurring problem, and without wondering if something’s still living in your walls.
That’s what matters. The rest is just how we get there.
We’ve been handling wildlife removal in Cana and across the Treasure Coast since 2006. We’re licensed by the Florida Department of Agriculture, fully insured, and we’ve seen just about every wildlife situation this area throws at homeowners.
Cana sits in a part of Florida where wildlife doesn’t hibernate. Raccoons, squirrels, bats, and iguanas stay active year-round. Development keeps pushing into their habitat, which means they’re looking for food, water, and shelter—and your attic checks all three boxes.
We use humane trapping methods, follow state wildlife regulations, and focus on exclusion so the problem doesn’t repeat. No guesswork. No shortcuts. Just straightforward work from people who’ve been doing this locally for nearly two decades.
First, we inspect your property to figure out what animal you’re dealing with, where it’s getting in, and how much damage has been done. That inspection is free, and it gives you a clear picture of what needs to happen.
Next, we remove the animal using humane trapping or exclusion methods. If it’s a raccoon in the attic, we’re setting live traps and relocating it legally. If it’s bats, we’re installing one-way exits so they leave but can’t get back in. Every situation is different, but the goal is the same—get the animal out safely.
After removal, we seal every entry point. Gaps in soffits, vents without screens, holes in fascia—anything an animal used to get in gets closed off. Then we handle the cleanup: contaminated insulation, droppings, odor treatment, whatever’s needed to restore the space.
You’ll know what we’re doing at each step. No surprises. No hidden fees. Just clear communication and a home that’s secure again.
Wildlife removal in Cana isn’t a one-size-fits-all job. What you need depends on the animal, the damage, and how long the problem’s been going on. Here’s what full-service wildlife control covers.
You get a complete property inspection to identify the species, locate entry points, and assess damage. Then comes humane animal trapping and removal, done in compliance with Florida wildlife laws. We don’t just catch the animal and leave—we seal every opening with materials animals can’t chew through or claw past.
If there’s contamination, we handle attic cleanup, insulation replacement, and odor removal. Dead animal removal is part of the service too, because that smell doesn’t go away on its own. We also offer ongoing prevention so you’re not dealing with this again next season.
Cana’s climate means wildlife stays active all year. Raccoons den in attics during winter. Squirrels breed in spring and fall. Bats roost in summer heat. Iguanas are everywhere. The Treasure Coast has one of the most active wildlife populations in Florida, and your home is prime real estate for animals looking for shelter. That’s why exclusion matters as much as removal.
Cost depends on the animal, how many there are, and what kind of damage they’ve caused. A single squirrel in the attic with one entry point is a straightforward job. A family of raccoons that’s been living there for months and destroyed insulation is a bigger project.
Most companies charge for the inspection, the trapping and removal, the exclusion work, and any cleanup or repairs. We offer free estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for before any work starts.
The real cost isn’t just the service—it’s what happens if you don’t handle it. Chewed wires can cause electrical fires. Contaminated insulation spreads disease. Animals reproduce fast, and a small problem becomes a big one in weeks. Fixing it early saves money.
Yes. Florida has strict regulations on how wildlife can be trapped, handled, and relocated. You can’t just kill animals or dump them somewhere random. Certain species are protected, and mishandling them can result in fines.
Licensed wildlife removal companies follow Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission guidelines. That means using live traps for most animals, relocating them legally, and ensuring the process doesn’t harm the animal or violate state law.
Humane doesn’t mean slow or ineffective. It means the animal is removed safely and the problem is solved the right way. DIY traps and poisons usually make things worse—animals die in walls, traps injure pets, and you still haven’t sealed the entry points. Professional services handle it correctly the first time.
Raccoons, squirrels, bats, and rats are the most frequent intruders in Cana and the surrounding Treasure Coast. Raccoons are strong, smart, and destructive—they’ll tear through soffits and fascia to get into attics. Squirrels chew constantly and can gnaw through wood and wiring.
Bats roost in attics and eaves, and their droppings carry diseases. Rats and mice squeeze through openings the size of a quarter and breed rapidly. You’ll also see iguanas, opossums, and occasionally snakes, depending on your property’s proximity to water and vegetation.
Florida’s subtropical climate means these animals don’t hibernate. They’re active year-round, and they’re always looking for shelter. Homes in Cana offer warmth, safety from predators, and easy access to food and water. That’s why exclusion and prevention are just as important as removal.
You can try, but it’s risky and usually doesn’t solve the problem. Trapping an animal without sealing entry points means another one moves in. Handling wildlife without training can result in bites, scratches, and disease exposure. Raccoons and bats are common rabies carriers in Florida.
There’s also the legal side. Some species are protected, and removing them without a permit is illegal. Even common animals like raccoons have regulations on how they can be trapped and relocated. Doing it wrong can lead to fines.
Professional wildlife removal includes inspection, trapping, exclusion, and cleanup. You’re not just getting the animal out—you’re getting a solution that lasts. DIY methods usually end up costing more in the long run because the problem repeats or the damage gets worse.
It depends on the situation. A single animal with one entry point can be handled in a day or two. Multiple animals, extensive damage, or hard-to-reach areas take longer.
Trapping can take a few days because animals don’t always enter traps immediately. Exclusion work—sealing entry points—happens after the animals are out, and that timeline depends on how many openings need to be closed. Cleanup and repairs add time if insulation needs replacing or contamination is severe.
Most jobs are completed within a week. Emergency situations get prioritized, especially if there’s a health risk or active damage happening. You’ll get a clear timeline during the inspection so you know what to expect.
Yes. Wildlife emergencies don’t wait for business hours. If you’ve got an animal in your living space, a bat flying around inside, or a dead animal smell that’s unbearable, we respond fast.
Emergency service means same-day or next-day response depending on the situation. We’re available 24/7 because we know some problems can’t wait until Monday morning. A raccoon in your kitchen at midnight or a snake in the garage needs immediate attention.
Emergency calls are prioritized, and we’ll walk you through what to do while we’re on the way. Keep pets and kids away from the animal, don’t try to trap it yourself, and avoid direct contact. We’ll handle the rest.
