Animal & Wildlife Removal

Animal & Wildlife Removal in Philadelphia

Full-Service Wildlife & Pest Control for Philadelphia Homes & Businesses

When wildlife gets into your property, the damage can start immediately. At Newtown Termite & Pest Control, we’ve been handling animal and wildlife removal across the Greater Delaware Valley since 1993, and our team knows the building types, the seasonal patterns, and the animals Philadelphia property owners deal with most. Whether the problem is raccoons in the attic, squirrels chewing wiring, or bats roosting behind shutters, we handle it, along with any related pest activity, under one inspection and one service guarantee.

We serve both residential and commercial properties in Philadelphia, PA. Our wildlife removal services cover raccoon control, squirrel removal, bat exclusion, bird control, and rodent management. Because we’re a full-service company, a property owner dealing with wildlife and a separate pest issue doesn’t need to coordinate two different contractors. One team handles both.

Ready to get rid of the problem? Call (215) 565-8605 to schedule your free, no-obligation inspection in Philadelphia. We can walk your property, tell you exactly what we find, and give you a clear written estimate before any work begins.

Wildlife Challenges Unique to Philadelphia Properties

Philadelphia’s mix of rowhouses, attached structures, older homes, and properties near parks and green corridors creates frequent contact between residents and nuisance wildlife. Aging infrastructure means gaps around utility lines, deteriorated soffits, worn roof edges, and unscreened vents are common, especially in the city’s older neighborhoods. Our team is familiar with these building conditions throughout the Greater Delaware Valley and knows where to look.

The animals we encounter most often in Philadelphia:

Raccoons enter attics and crawl spaces through damaged soffits, roof vents, or chimney openings, contaminating insulation with droppings and causing structural damage quickly.
Squirrels exploit uncapped chimneys, open vents, and gaps along roof edges, and their chewing on electrical wiring creates a real fire risk.
Bats roost in attic spaces, behind shutters, and around chimneys. Significant guano accumulation can create odor problems and health concerns.
Rodents (rats and mice) are well-documented in Philadelphia’s older urban neighborhoods, where dense housing and aging infrastructure create numerous entry points.
Birds nesting in vents or soffits block ventilation and create waste buildup that accelerates material deterioration.

Animals that get into a structure rarely use an obvious door. Entry points tend to be small, hidden, and numerous, which is why a professional inspection matters more than a trap from the hardware store.

Our Three-Step Wildlife Removal Process

Step 1: Free Inspection
A trained technician walks the full interior and exterior of your property, checking for droppings, gnaw marks, nesting material, grease trails, tracks, and visible damage. We identify likely entry points, including gaps around utility lines, vents, soffits, roof edges, and chimney areas, and explain what we find in plain language.

Step 2: Custom Plan
After the inspection, we design a plan specific to your property and the animal involved. This may include targeted trapping, exclusion using one-way doors (appropriate for bats, which are protected under Pennsylvania game laws), entry-point sealing, and other professional-grade measures. You get a clear written estimate before anything starts.

Step 3: Service-Backed Follow-Up
Once the work is done, our service guarantee covers you. If the problem returns, we come back and re-treat at no additional charge. Both one-time removal and plan-based ongoing protection are available, so you can choose the level of coverage that fits your situation.

Signs You Need Professional Wildlife or Rodent Removal

Wildlife activity inside a structure tends to worsen quickly. Animals nest, cause damage, and can return repeatedly if the entry point that let them in isn’t sealed. Recognizing the warning signs early makes a real difference.

Common indicators of an active infestation:

Scratching, scurrying, or thumping sounds in walls, ceilings, or floors, particularly at night
Droppings along baseboards, in cabinets, or near food storage areas
Chewed wiring, insulation, or food packaging
Nests made of shredded insulation, paper, or fabric in hidden areas
Unexplained odors coming from crawl spaces, attics, or wall cavities
Visible damage to soffits, roof edges, or exterior vents
Animals observed entering or exiting the roofline at dusk or dawn
Pets behaving unusually, sniffing persistently at a wall or showing nighttime anxiety

Store-bought traps and repellents can catch a single animal. They don’t find or seal the gap that allowed it in, and they don’t stop the next one from following the same path. Rodent populations in particular can grow rapidly, making early professional intervention more cost-effective than waiting. A professional wildlife removal service addresses the animal, the entry point, and the conditions that made your property a target in the first place.
