Raccoons cause problems in Richmond, Virginia

People are surprised at how hard it is to get rid of raccoons in Richmond, Virginia.

I appear to have a raccoon problem in my back yard. Grass has been uprooted (like a golf divot) and dark (almost black) feces found along the fence. Greg F.

I have a mother and three baby raccoons living under my deck. They are becoming quite bold and come out in daylight while we are in the yard, last night one even came on to the deck while we were sitting there. They need to be removed! Elaine L.

We have a raccoon family living in the woods next to our home, I have seen the mother and two young (10-15lbs) they are consistently in our trash and come into the garage if left open, concerned about people and pets being around them. Have tried to use repellents and secure trash can, doesn't work. Wendy B.



We solve many types of wildlife control conflicts in Richmond and surrounding areas. Give us a call if you need expert animal removal and/or live wildlife trapping. We can also perform an inspection of your property to evaluate the problem.

Many of the projects we solve involve raccoon families in attics and chimneys, mud swallow nests on stucco, woodpeckers drilling siding, voles and gophers destroying lawns, rats or squirrels thumping and bumping around inside walls and in attics, bat infestations, skunks stealing pet food and snakes living in crawlspaces and stone walls.

Along with physical damage and disease, wild animals also bring along disturbance and nuisance with all their noise and commotion and smell. Baby raccoons chirp and chitter like little birds; raccoons and rats will fight all night and keep people awake; skunk smell takes the cake, but have you ever smelled a dead animal in your ventilation system? We have seen much, much more than these problems, but that is a general idea of the kinds of problems that my professional wildlife removal operators and I are prepared to solve.

Not only do my technicians and I trap and remove problem wild animals, we do a lot of other dirty work, too. Don't hesitate to call us for dead animal removal, pigeon waste cleanup, bat guano removal, mouse droppings, decontamination, repairs, above ground and below ground rodent slick fencing, odor control for skunk spray, and the like. We are a full service pest control company with a wide range of animal control solutions.

I have been in the professional wildlife control business for many years. My favorite stories and experiences are removing bats from schools and churches.

For pigeon and bird control, bat removal, or relief from other pest animals, call our wildlife management experts. Many nuisance wildlife companies offer critter capture and control; our wildlife operators provide professional pest wild animal management. We remove the following AND MORE:

  • Bats from attics, eaves and belfries
  • Pigeons from rooftops
  • Swallow nests from eaves, stucco, log siding, and exterior walls
  • Voles that tear and dig up lawns and destroy root systems
  • Moles and gophers that damage golf courses and gardens

Richmond Wild Animal Control News, Stories, Events and Alerts

Pigeon problems are common in Richmond, Virginia

Richmond, Virginia residents want to get rid of Pigeons.

Currently I live in an Apartment complex (Desert Heights) I've had my air vents professionally cleaned. Due to some fowl odor of dead. We have a lot of pigeons posted above the building. I have a downstairs unit. So my question is why is my apartment the only one with the odor. Upstairs don't have it my back neighbors don't have it. Just I, maintenance man mentioned sometimes pigeons get stuck in the attic and fall between the walls causing a bad smell. My concern would be having a 3 yr. old is this a harmful and unhealthy thing to inhale? Smell worsens when A/C is running. Bessie P.

We have a pigeon problem in the steeple of an old church. I think the birds have been there for several years. We are about to buy the church to convert into a community center but need to know approx what it will cost to get rid of the pigeons and clean up the mess. Robert T.

Pigeons are defecating in two eaves at high point of roof - desire wiring or screening installed to block exposed eave access as owner (my) ladder to short to allow me to completely block off eaves as evident when you visit. Other adjacent neighbors may be interested in the work you do, too, as these birds seem to be everywhere. Steven A.
