Remove the Animal, Seal the Entry

Colorado Springs Wildlife Trapping Done Right

An animal in your attic, walls, or under your deck is rarely a one-off visitor. Raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and opossums move in to nest, raise young, and stay — chewing wiring, soiling insulation, and creating real damage and health risks. A quick trap-and-release without exclusion just opens the door for the next one.

Wildguard locates the animal, removes it humanely with live traps or one-way doors, confirms no young are left behind, and then seals the entry points it used. Our licensed technicians carry the right equipment on every truck so we can handle most situations efficiently.

Animals We Remove

Every Common Colorado Springs Invader

From the attic to the crawlspace to under the deck, we handle the species that make themselves at home.

🦝

Raccoon Removal

Raccoons are strong, smart, and destructive. They tear into attics and chimneys to den and raise litters. We remove the adults and any young, then reinforce and seal the access points they exploited.

🐿️

Squirrel Removal

Squirrels chew through soffits, vents, and wood to nest in attics — and gnaw wiring, creating fire risk. We remove them and seal the gnaw points with heavy-gauge materials they can't re-chew.

🦨

Skunk Removal

Skunks den under decks, sheds, and porches. We remove them carefully to avoid spraying, then install dig-proof barriers so the space can't be re-colonized.

🐀

Opossum Removal

Opossums shelter in crawlspaces, garages, and under structures. We trap and relocate them per Colorado regulations and seal the openings they used to get in.

🕳️

In-Wall & In-Attic Trapping

Animals trapped or nesting inside walls and attics need careful, targeted removal. We locate them precisely and extract them without tearing your home apart.

🔁

Re-Entry Prevention

Every removal is paired with exclusion. We seal the entry point with materials the animal can't breach — and warranty that seal so the problem doesn't come back.

How It Works

Our Removal Process

Humane, thorough, and sealed for good.

1

Free Inspection & Identification

We identify the species, locate every entry point, and check for young. You get a written quote for removal and exclusion before any work begins.

2

Humane Removal

Using live traps or one-way exclusion doors appropriate to the animal, we remove it without harm — and confirm no dependent young are left inside.

3

Seal the Entry Points

We seal every opening the animal used — and the ones it would have used next — with heavy-gauge, animal-proof materials.

4

Cleanup & Warranty

We clean up nesting material and droppings, walk you through everything we sealed, and back the exclusion with a written warranty. If wildlife left a bigger mess, we'll quote attic restoration.

Questions

Animal Trapping FAQ

Is your trapping humane?
Yes. We use live cage traps and one-way exclusion methods that capture animals without injury. Trapped animals are handled in accordance with Colorado wildlife regulations. Before we seal any entry point, we confirm there are no dependent young left inside — separating a mother from her babies is both inhumane and ineffective, because she will tear back in to reach them.
How do I know what kind of animal I have?
During the free inspection, our technician identifies the species from the sounds, droppings, entry points, and damage patterns. Raccoons are heavy and active at dusk; squirrels are fast and daytime-active; skunks announce themselves; opossums leave a distinctive trail. Correct identification matters because the trapping and exclusion approach differs for each.
How long does removal take?
It depends on the animal and the situation. A single squirrel may be excluded in one or two visits. A raccoon with a litter requires removing the young first, then the mother, then sealing — typically several days. We give you a realistic timeline during the free inspection.
Will the animal come back after you remove it?
Not through a sealed entry point — that's what our exclusion warranty covers. Removal alone is only a temporary fix; the same species follows the same scent trails back in. We always pair removal with sealing the entry points, which is the only way to keep the problem from recurring.
Do you handle skunks under decks and sheds?
Yes. Skunks denning under decks, sheds, and porches are one of our most common calls in Colorado Springs. We remove them carefully to avoid spraying, then install dig-proof barriers so they — and the next skunk — can't re-den there.
