Animal & Wildlife Removal in Newtown
Protecting Greater Delaware Valley Homes from Rodents & Wildlife Since 1993
Scratching in the walls, droppings in the pantry, something moving in the attic: these aren’t problems you should have to live with. Whether you’re dealing with mice slipping through a gap in the foundation, squirrels nesting in your soffits, or raccoons raiding your trash, Newtown Termite & Pest Control has the experience to handle it safely and effectively.
As a family-owned company serving the Greater Delaware Valley since 1993, we’ve helped protect more than 85,000 properties from rodents and nuisance wildlife. Our approach starts with a free inspection and a custom plan designed for your specific property. And if you’re not satisfied with the results, we come back and re-treat at no additional charge.

Rodent & Wildlife Services We Provide
This page is the starting point for all of our rodent and wildlife removal services. Because each animal brings its own behavior patterns, entry habits, and removal requirements, we’ve built out dedicated service pages covering each one in detail.
Our rodent removal service addresses mice and rat activity in homes and commercial buildings, including trapping, entry point identification, and control measures suited to how rodents move through properties in this region. For wildlife, we handle the species most commonly found in Greater Delaware Valley structures.
Wildlife and rodent services available from our team:
- Rodent Control — Targeted removal and control for mice and rats in residential and commercial properties
- Squirrel Control — Removal and exclusion for squirrels nesting in attics, soffits, and wall voids
- Raccoon Control — Removal of raccoons entering through roof openings, vents, and unsecured areas
- Bat Removal & Exclusion — Humane bat exclusion for attic roosts and behind-shutter colonies
- Bird Control & Exclusion — Control for birds nesting in vents, ledges, and signage
- Groundhog Removal — Removal of groundhogs burrowing near foundations and landscaping
If you’re not sure which service fits your situation, a free inspection is the right first step. Our technicians identify what’s present, where activity is concentrated, and what approach fits your property before any work begins.
Signs It’s Time to Call for Help
Animal activity doesn’t always announce itself clearly. Some property owners notice a few droppings near the water heater and assume it’s isolated. Others hear occasional scratching and wait weeks before realizing the problem is growing. Early recognition matters: rodents and wildlife can cause structural damage, contaminate food surfaces, and create fire risk when they chew through wiring.
Common signs that point to a rodent or wildlife problem:
- Scratching, scurrying, or thumping sounds in walls, ceilings, or floors
- Droppings along baseboards, in cabinets, near pet food, or in attic spaces
- Chewed wiring, insulation, cardboard boxes, or food packaging
- Nesting material (shredded paper, fabric, or insulation) found in hidden areas
- Unexplained odors in crawl spaces, attics, or wall voids
- Visible damage to soffits, roof edges, or vents, or animals observed entering these areas
- Pets fixating on a section of wall or acting anxious at night
Store-bought traps can catch individual animals, but they don’t identify how animals are getting in or where colonies are nesting. If signs keep recurring or you’ve spotted animals in living areas, professional removal is the more effective path.
How Our Three-Step Process Works
Every service we provide follows the same structured approach, designed to keep you informed and produce results that hold over time.
Step 1: Free Inspection
A trained technician walks the interior and exterior of your property, looking for signs of activity and identifying likely entry points. In Newtown homes, we pay close attention to basements, crawl spaces, attics, and the areas where utilities enter the structure: common routes for both rodents and wildlife.
Step 2: Custom Treatment Plan
After the inspection, we explain what we found in plain language and present a plan built around your specific property and the animals involved. The plan may include targeted trapping, entry point sealing, and other professional-grade measures. We also walk through any safety steps in advance, such as keeping children or pets away from treated areas until products dry, so there are no surprises.
Step 3: Results-Driven Service
Once you approve the plan, we complete the agreed work and schedule any follow-up visits included in your service. If you’re not satisfied with the outcome, we return and re-treat the affected areas at no additional charge. Our goal is to restore your peace of mind, not just close a ticket.
Why Local Property Owners Choose Our Team
Choosing a wildlife removal company means inviting someone into your home or business under stressful circumstances. We take that seriously. Our technicians are respectful, trained, and focused on clear communication from the first call through the final visit.
We’ve been serving local communities since 1993, and in that time we’ve developed a detailed understanding of how rodents and wildlife move through the building types, landscaping, and neighborhoods common in this part of Pennsylvania. Older basements with settling around the sill plate, townhomes with shared utility chases, attached garages, and properties backing onto wooded lots each present their own patterns. That local familiarity shapes every inspection we conduct.
Our pricing is upfront and written before any work begins. No surprise charges, no high-pressure sales tactics. If you’re within about 20 miles of our main office and contact us by midday Monday through Friday, we offer same-day service on standard issues that don’t require special preparation. Our work has been recognized by the BBB, Angi, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack, and local “Best of” programs, reflecting a standard of service we’ve maintained for more than three decades.
One-Time Services & Ongoing Protection Plans
Some wildlife and rodent situations are best handled with a focused, one-time removal service. Others benefit from structured ongoing protection, particularly for properties that face recurring pressure from their surroundings: homes near wooded lots, or commercial buildings with dumpsters and loading docks.
We offer both. One-time services address the immediate activity we find, with our service guarantee covering re-treatment if needed. For property owners who want continued monitoring, we also include rodent and wildlife management within our year-round pest protection plans. These cover scheduled visits and prompt response if new activity appears between services. Either way, pricing is clear and written before work begins, and we walk you through what’s included in each option and give you space to decide without pressure.
Rodents & Wildlife Common in the Greater Delaware Valley
This region’s climate and building stock create reliable conditions for rodent and wildlife activity, particularly as temperatures drop in fall and winter. Mice and rats move toward heat and shelter, finding access through gaps as small as a quarter-inch around utility lines, worn weather stripping, or cracks at the sill plate. Properties with finished basements, stacked storage along exterior walls, or wooded lot lines tend to see more consistent pressure.
Wildlife follows similar patterns. Squirrels nest in attics and soffits, often entering through loose soffit panels or gaps at roof intersections. Raccoons use roof openings and unsecured vents. Bats roost in attic spaces or behind shutters. Groundhogs burrow near foundations, and birds nest in vents, ledges, and signage when conditions allow. Tree branches, fences, and utility lines all serve as travel routes to upper levels of a structure.
Our inspections account for all of these entry patterns. We look at the specific conditions on your property, including how it’s built, what surrounds it, and where we find evidence of activity, before designing a removal and control plan. Thirty years of serving this area makes that assessment more accurate than any generic checklist.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have rodents or wildlife and not just a noise from the house settling?
Settling sounds are typically random and infrequent. Rodent and wildlife activity tends to follow patterns: scratching that starts around dusk, sounds that repeat in the same area of the wall or ceiling, or noises that move. Droppings, chew marks, and odors are more definitive indicators. If you’re unsure, a free inspection is the fastest way to get a clear answer.
Can Your Team Handle Both Rodents & Wildlife in the Same Visit?
Yes. Our inspection covers all animal activity present on the property, and your custom plan addresses whatever we find. If you have both a rodent issue and a squirrel problem, we design the plan around both rather than treating them as separate engagements.
Do Your Removal Methods Put My Pets or Children at Risk?
We focus on eco-friendly solutions throughout. When a treatment requires keeping children or pets away from a specific area until products dry, we explain that clearly in advance and provide simple instructions before we begin.
What If the Animals Come Back After Treatment?
Our service guarantee covers this. If you’re not satisfied with the results, we return and re-treat the affected areas at no additional charge.
Do I Need an Ongoing Plan, or Is a One-Time Service Enough?
It depends on your property and its surroundings. Many customers resolve an immediate issue with a one-time service. Properties that face consistent pressure from nearby wooded areas, shared walls, or commercial conditions often benefit from ongoing monitoring. We review both options with you after the inspection so you can decide what fits your situation.
Schedule Your Free Inspection
Rodent and wildlife problems rarely resolve on their own. A free inspection gives you a clear picture of what’s happening, what’s causing it, and what it can take to address it, with no obligation to move forward until you’re comfortable with the plan.
