Wildlife Exclusion Services

Stop Unwanted Wildlife - for Good

At Wild Thangs Pest Control, we don’t just remove animals - we make sure they don’t come back. Our wildlife exclusion service is designed to protect your home or business by sealing entry points, repairing damage, and creating a long-term defense. It’s the smarter, humane, lasting way to keep nuisance wildlife out.

Why Wildlife Exclusion Matters

Animals that wander into your attic, walls, or crawlspaces aren’t just pests - they’re a threat. They can:

  • Damage structure — chewing insulation, wiring, wood, siding

  • Create health hazards — urine, feces, parasites, bacteria

  • Return repeatedly if entry points aren’t addressed

  • Cost you more over time in recurring repairs

 

Exclusion is a proactive solution. After animals are safely removed, sealing and repairs prevent re-entry, giving you lasting peace of mind.

Raccoon Exclusion Services

Raccoons may look harmless, but when they invade your attic, crawlspace, or outbuildings, they can cause serious structural and health problems. Once inside, raccoons often chew through electrical wiring, rip apart insulation, and tear into roofs, soffits, and fascia boards as they expand their entry points. This not only leads to expensive repairs but also increases the risk of fire hazards from exposed wires.

Beyond the attic, raccoons are notorious for nesting under decks, sheds, porches, and even hot tubs. Their constant activity can weaken foundations, damage woodwork, and create entryways for other nuisance animals. The droppings and urine they leave behind can contaminate your home with parasites and harmful bacteria, putting your family and pets at risk.

 

At Wild Thangs Pest Control, our raccoon exclusion services go beyond removal. We locate and seal every potential entry point, install one-way doors where necessary, and reinforce vulnerable areas of your home with durable materials designed to stand up against raccoon damage. With our proven process, we don’t just get raccoons out — we keep them out for good.

Rodent Exclusion & Proofing

Discovering a rat in your San Antonio home is every homeowner’s nightmare. Rats and mice are small enough to squeeze through even the tiniest cracks, making most Texas homes and businesses vulnerable to an infestation.

Unfortunately, during construction or remodeling projects, long-term rodent prevention is often overlooked. That means gaps left behind by contractors can quickly turn into entryways for unwanted pests.

Once inside, rodents can cause significant damage by chewing wires, pipes, and even structural materials. This not only raises your risk of fire or water damage but also puts your family’s health at risk. Droppings, urine, and bites can transmit dangerous diseases.

At Wild Thangs Pest Control, we take a safe, effective approach to rodent removal. We avoid quick fixes like over-reliance on poison, which can create additional hazards, and instead focus on long-term solutions to keep rats and mice out for good. If you’ve spotted signs of rodents in your Bexar County home, contact us today for a thorough inspection and customized removal plan.

Squirrel Exclusion & Prevention

Squirrel in a home

Squirrels and other wildlife often see your San Antonio attic as the perfect hideaway. What starts as a cozy shelter from the weather quickly turns into a serious problem as these critters scratch, scurry, and even build nests right above your ceiling.

While squirrels typically make their homes in trees, your attic provides warmth, safety, and easy access—making it an irresistible nesting spot. Unfortunately, they don’t just bring noise and droppings. The real danger lies in their habit of gnawing on electrical wires hidden in your attic and walls. This creates a serious fire hazard and costly damage to your home.

At Wild Thangs Pest Control, we specialize in safe and effective squirrel removal, along with comprehensive wildlife management. If you suspect squirrels have moved in, give us a call today—we’ll help protect your home and restore your peace of mind.

Bat Removal

Bats in a home attic

Bats in your San Antonio home can be safely removed using a proven technique called exclusion. Instead of trying to trap them, exclusion allows bats to leave naturally—typically at night when they head out to hunt—and prevents them from coming back inside.

Our process begins with a detailed inspection to locate every entry point bats are using. Once identified, we install one-way devices that let bats exit but block their return. After the colony has moved out, we seal those openings to keep your home protected.

Because bats often leave behind droppings and damage, your attic may need cleaning and repairs.

 

At Wild Thangs Pest Control, we not only handle the removal but also provide wildlife damage repair to restore your space and give you long-term peace of mind.

Attic Services – Removal & Decontamination

Wildlife and critter home attic inspections

If wildlife has taken over your attic, chances are they’ve left behind a big mess. Droppings, urine, and nesting materials can contaminate insulation and even pose health risks to your family. Handling this waste without the proper training or equipment is unsafe and not recommended.

At Wild Thangs Pest Control, we specialize in safe wildlife removal and professional insulation decontamination. Our team carefully removes contaminated materials and sanitizes the affected areas, ensuring your attic is clean, safe, and ready for fresh insulation.

Skunk & Opossum Trapping

Skunk in yard

Skunks or opossums taking over your property? At Wild Thangs Pest Control, we provide fast, humane skunk trapping and removal services throughout San Antonio and the surrounding areas. Whether they’re hiding under your deck, digging in your yard, or getting a little too close to your home, our licensed wildlife experts safely trap and relocate them according to Texas regulations.

We don’t just remove the problem — we prevent it from coming back. After trapping, we inspect your property for entry points and seal them to block future invaders. While skunks are known for their strong odor, opossums can also cause damage by nesting in attics and crawl spaces — and we handle both with care.

If you want a safe, odor-free, and lasting solution, give Wild Thangs a call. We make unwanted wildlife hit the road — for good.
