Wildlife We Remove in Oakville
Raccoons
Procyon lotor
Strong and clever, raccoons tear open roof vents, soffits and shingles to den in attics and chimneys, especially when raising young in spring. They can damage insulation and wiring and carry roundworm.
Squirrels
Sciurus carolinensis
Grey and black squirrels chew into rooflines, gable vents and soffits to nest in attics and walls. They chew wiring, which is a fire risk, and are most active at dawn and dusk.
Skunks
Mephitis mephitis
Skunks dig dens under decks, porches, sheds and concrete steps. Besides the smell, they can damage lawns while digging for grubs and may carry rabies.
We also handle birds nesting in vents and dryer exhausts. In Ontario, captured wildlife must be released within 1 km of where it was caught, which is why sealing entry points is the part that actually solves the problem.
Signs You Need Wildlife Removal in Oakville
- Thumping, scratching or chattering in the attic or walls
- Torn soffits, roof vents or shingles
- Droppings or a strong urine smell in the attic
- Holes dug under decks, porches or sheds
- Chewed wires, wood or vent covers
- Animals seen entering the roof or chimney at dusk
- Damaged insulation or nesting material in the attic
- A skunk odour under the deck or near the foundation
Trapping a single animal does not fix the hole it came through, and in Ontario relocated wildlife must be released close by. Without proper exclusion, the same animal or a new one moves back in. Baby raccoons and squirrels left behind in an attic also create a bigger problem, so removal has to be done carefully.
Wildlife Activity in Oakville
Oakville's ravines along Sixteen Mile Creek, Bronte Creek and Joshua's Creek, its mature tree canopy and large lots in Old Oakville, Glen Abbey and Eastlake are ideal habitat for raccoons and squirrels. Large homes with complex rooflines, dormers and chimneys offer many entry points, and skunks frequently den under decks and pool sheds in the newer northern communities.
Our Wildlife Removal Process
Wildlife inspection
We inspect the roof, attic, chimney, soffits, vents and foundation to find every entry point and check for young.
Humane removal
We install one-way doors that let animals leave but not return, and safely remove any babies by hand so they can reunite with the mother.
Exclusion and sealing
We seal entry points with heavy-gauge steel mesh, vent guards, chimney caps and screening built to resist chewing.
Clean-up and sanitation
We can remove contaminated insulation and droppings and sanitize the attic.
Guarantee
Our exclusion work is covered by a written guarantee. If an animal gets back in through a sealed point, we come back.

How Much Does Wildlife Removal Cost in Oakville?
Wildlife removal is priced by the job: the number of entry points, roof height and access, whether young are present and how much sealing or clean-up is needed. You get a fixed quote after the inspection, before any work starts. Exclusion is the most important part of the job, so we never quote removal without sealing.
How to Keep Wildlife Out After Treatment
- Install chimney caps and heavy-gauge roof vent guards
- Trim tree branches at least 2 metres from the roof
- Use locking or weighted lids on garbage and green bins
- Do not leave pet food or bird seed out at night
- Screen the space under decks, porches and sheds with buried mesh
- Repair damaged soffits, fascia and shingles quickly
Wildlife Removal FAQ
Straight answers from our licensed technicians. Still have a question? Call (647) 471-1332, we are open 24 hours.
Do you trap and relocate raccoons in Oakville?
Ontario law requires wildlife to be released within 1 km of where it was captured. That is why we use one-way doors and focus on sealing the entry points, which stops the animal from getting back in.
What if there are babies in my attic?
This is common in spring. We locate the young and remove them by hand so the mother can retrieve them, then seal the home once the family has left.
How long does wildlife removal take?
Most removals take 3 to 7 days from installing the one-way door to final sealing, depending on the animal and whether young are present.
Do you clean the attic after removal?
Yes. We can remove contaminated insulation and droppings, sanitize the space and recommend re-insulation if needed.
Is there an emergency service?
Yes. We are open 24 hours for animals inside the living space, in chimneys or causing active damage.
Is the exclusion work guaranteed?
Yes. Our sealing work is covered by a written guarantee, and we come back if an animal gets in through a sealed point.
Do you work on large homes with complex roofs in Oakville?
Yes. We inspect every roofline, dormer and chimney and seal all potential entry points, not just the active one.
Do you clean attics after raccoon removal?
Yes. We remove contaminated insulation and droppings and sanitize the attic.
