Humane Animal Control in Williamson, Bell & Travis Counties

Hearing strange noises in your attic or walls? Seeing a raccoon cross your yard at night? When wildlife enters your home, it can cause far more than an inconvenience—it can lead to insulation damage, chewed wiring, and health risks for your family. Acting quickly can save you from costly repairs.

At A to Z Pest Control, our experienced pest control technicians offer humane wildlife removal in Austin and surrounding counties. We don’t just trap and remove animals—we provide full exclusion and prevention to keep them from coming back.

Why Homeowners in Austin Choose Professional Wildlife Control

Austin’s mix of greenbelts, creeks, and wooded neighborhoods makes wildlife encounters common. From raccoons, opossums, and squirrels to snakes and skunks, every species requires a safe, regulated removal process.

Our experts understand how Texas weather patterns and urban expansion increase wildlife pressure on homes. We adjust every solution to fit your property and season—delivering the most effective results for Austin homeowners and businesses alike.

We handle wildlife removal the right way—safe, humane, and fully compliant with local laws.

Why Avoid DIY Wildlife Removal?

Attempting to trap or remove animals on your own can be dangerous. Wild animals often carry rabies, fleas, and ticks, and without proper equipment, the chance of injury or contamination rises sharply.

Some species—like bats and migratory birds—are protected under Texas Parks and Wildlife regulations, meaning unapproved trapping or relocation could result in fines or legal trouble.

Our licensed Austin wildlife control technicians follow all safety and compliance guidelines, protecting your home and health while ensuring humane treatment of every animal.

What Kind of Wildlife Are We Dealing With?

Wildlife in Central Texas is diverse and persistent. Many animals we remove seek food, shelter, or a safe place to nest, especially during colder months. Attics, chimneys, crawlspaces, and even wall voids provide ideal hiding spots for curious critters. Understanding which animals have moved in helps us tailor our approach to removal and prevention.

Common nuisance wildlife we handle includes:

Raccoons
Squirrels
Opossums
Skunks
Armadillos
Bats
Snakes
Birds (in vents or attics)

Each species has unique habits, nesting preferences, and entry points. Our technicians assess each situation thoroughly before starting any removal work. Whether something's scratching in the walls or causing trouble under your deck, we identify the animal and choose the best solution to move forward.

In Austin and the surrounding counties, certain wildlife—like Mexican free-tailed bats and migratory birds—have additional legal protections, affecting removal timing and strategies. Our team works within the law to handle protected species, and we always use techniques that align with the most up-to-date Texas Parks and Wildlife guidelines. In some neighborhoods near the Barton Creek Greenbelt or Lake Travis, we often encounter seasonal surges in squirrel or raccoon activity, especially when food becomes scarce. Recognizing these patterns helps us better advise homeowners on risk factors and prevention steps specific to their property’s location.

How Local Laws & Wildlife Protection Affect Removal

Animal removal in Austin must follow regulations set by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. This agency outlines which animals can legally be trapped or relocated, and which require special permits or techniques. For example, bats cannot be removed during maternity season—usually from spring to late summer—when flightless pups are present. Disturbing a protected species during this period risks fines and disrupts the local ecosystem. Federal laws, including the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, also regulate the handling of birds nesting inside homes or commercial buildings. Our company stays up to date on these laws so that all removal and exclusion work remains fully compliant. When wildlife must be relocated, we take care to follow humane release standards specific to Central Texas, ensuring animals are returned to suitable environments away from neighborhoods. Keeping in step with legal requirements protects both property owners and local wildlife populations.

Our Approach to Removing Wildlife

Every situation is unique, which is why we use a structured, step-by-step approach that combines immediate action with long-term prevention.

Here’s how we handle the process:

Property inspection: We locate all access points, nesting areas, and damage inside attics, crawlspaces, and walls.
Safe trapping or removal: We use humane, state-approved traps to capture animals without harm.
Exclusion & repair: Entry points are sealed with durable, chew-proof materials.
Follow-up: Our technicians return for re-inspections to confirm lasting protection.

We also educate homeowners on future prevention—like trimming trees away from roofs or securing vents and chimneys.

How to Prepare for Professional Wildlife Removal

To help us work quickly and safely, we recommend:

Clearing cluttered spaces for easy access.
Keeping pets in separate rooms during service.
Writing down recent wildlife sightings or sounds.

Taking these steps before our arrival ensures a smoother, more effective process.

Quick response matters—delays can cause bigger infestations and structural damage.

This process gives homeowners peace of mind and real protection. We solve the immediate problem and help prevent future wildlife issues from recurring.

Handling wildlife issues quickly is especially important in Austin, where the warm climate can accelerate the spread of parasites and bacteria. Delays in animal removal often mean that wildlife colonies grow and structural damage worsens. Some animals, like raccoons and opossums, can quickly adapt to urban surroundings and return if entry points are not properly sealed. Rodent infestations that go unchecked can affect neighboring properties or attract secondary pests, such as snakes or insects. Homeowners who act fast limit the risks and ensure their homes stay safe and clean year-round.

Why You Shouldn't Wait to Handle a Wildlife Problem

When wildlife gets inside, it rarely leaves on its own. The longer an animal stays, the more damage it can cause. Chewed wiring, contaminated insulation, and flea or tick infestations are just some of the risks that come with waiting.

Some signs it’s time to call A to Z Pest Control:

Loud scratching or movement in the walls, attic, or ceiling
Droppings in the attic or garage
Sudden pet agitation near vents or baseboards
Strong ammonia-like smells from urine
Entry holes near rooflines, soffits, or crawlspaces

Even if the animal has left, the mess it leaves behind can attract other pests or create new problems over time. We help you resolve the current wildlife issue and strengthen your home against future animal intrusions.
