Wildlife Control for Pocono Mountain Properties
The Pocono Mountains’ high wildlife density means every property is vulnerable. Raccoons accessing attics through damaged soffits, groundhogs burrowing under decks, and bats nesting in roof voids are routine issues at Pocono properties—particularly seasonal cabins and homes in communities near state forests.
Humane, compliant wildlife removal requires professional expertise and PA Game Commission licensing. Our technicians hold required certifications and follow all state regulations.

What wildlife commonly causes problems in Pocono Mountain homes?
Raccoons in attics, groundhogs under decks/sheds, skunks under stoops, opossums in crawlspaces, squirrels in walls, and bats in roof voids. Each species requires different removal and legal approach.
Is it legal to trap and relocate wildlife in Pennsylvania?
No. Pennsylvania law requires a PA Game Commission Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator license to trap and relocate wildlife. Trapping without permit violates state law and risks fines. Our technicians hold required DEC licenses.
What do I do if there's a raccoon in my Pocono cabin?
Don't attempt to trap or handle it. Close doors to confine it to one area, leave exit routes open, and call us. Raccoons can carry rabies—professional removal is essential.
What about baby animals—can they be separated from mothers?
No. Ethical removal reunites families whenever possible. One-way exclusion with passive relocation encourages families to move naturally to new denning sites.
How does wildlife exclusion work?
After removal, we seal all entry points with heavy-gauge hardware cloth and metal flashing, preventing re-entry of target species while allowing roof ventilation.
