Wildlife Removal

Humane wildlife removal and exclusion for raccoons, squirrels, skunks, birds and groundhogs across the GTA and surrounding communities. We inspect the activity, identify likely entry points and recommend practical next steps.

INSPECTION • HUMANE REMOVAL • EXCLUSION • PREVENTION

A calm, careful approach to wildlife problems.

01 / ASSESSInspect accessible areas, signs of activity and property conditions.
02 / PLANChoose an approach suited to the animal, property and situation.
03 / PROTECTAddress agreed entry points and discuss practical prevention.

The animal you see may be only part of the problem.

Raccoon on a residential roof near a roofline opening

Scratching in an attic, movement around a roofline, disturbed vents or activity beneath a deck may indicate an opening or sheltered area that wildlife is using. Understanding where and how the activity is occurring is an important part of resolving it.

Listen

Scratching, movement and repeated sounds can help identify the area of concern.

Look

Damaged soffits, vents, roof edges and sheltered ground-level areas may require closer inspection.

Confirm

Recommendations are based on the accessible areas and conditions found during the inspection.

Humane removal starts with understanding the situation.

The appropriate approach depends on the animal, where the activity is occurring, how the area is being accessed and whether baby animals or an active nest may be present.

Reliant inspects accessible areas, explains the conditions found and recommends a removal approach suited to the situation. One-way doors may be used when appropriate, but the recommended method depends on what is found at the property.

A useful wildlife inspection connects the current activity to the part of the property that may be allowing access.

01 / ROOFLINESSoffits, fascia, roof intersections and edges where building materials meet.
02 / OPENINGSVents, chimneys and other accessible gaps around the structure.
03 / GROUND-LEVEL SHELTERDecks, sheds, porches, burrows and other protected spaces.

Any repair or exclusion work applies only to the openings and areas included in the agreed scope.

A clear four-stage wildlife service process.

01 / INSPECT

Review the reported activity, accessible areas and relevant property conditions.

02 / IDENTIFY

Consider the animal, likely access route and any signs of an active nest or baby animals.

03 / REMOVE

Use a humane removal method suited to the animal and situation.

04 / EXCLUDE AND PREVENT

Address agreed entry areas and discuss practical steps that may reduce the chance of re-entry.

The sequence may change when baby animals, active nests, limited access or other property conditions require a different approach.

Removal addresses the animal. Exclusion helps reduce the chance of return.

Once the animal is safely out, the next step may be to repair or reinforce the relevant entry area. The recommended work depends on the opening, surrounding materials and agreed scope.

Confirm the area is clear

Make sure the removal stage has been completed before closing the relevant opening.

Repair agreed entry points

Seal, repair or reinforce the specific areas included in the work.

Reduce future access

Discuss vulnerable areas and practical property maintenance that may help prevent another intrusion.

Wildlife removal questions, answered clearly.

Which wildlife does Reliant handle?

Reliant provides wildlife removal and exclusion services for raccoons, squirrels, skunks, birds and groundhogs. The removal and prevention approach is based on where the animal is active and how it may be accessing the property.

Note where and when you hear the activity, and look for visible damage only from a safe location. Do not close a suspected entry point before the situation has been assessed, because an animal or baby animals may still be inside. Contact Reliant and describe what you have seen or heard so the next step can be discussed.

Yes. Reliant takes a humane, situation-specific approach. The work may involve inspection, one-way doors where appropriate, removal, exclusion or repairs. The method is selected according to the animal and conditions found at the property.

The work is planned carefully when baby animals, eggs or an active nest are present. Reliant avoids knowingly separating dependent young from their mother or closing them inside the structure. Their presence may change the timing or approach used for the property.

When appropriate, entry-point sealing, repair or reinforcement may be recommended after the animal is safely out. Reliant explains the relevant opening, the proposed work and what is included before the repair proceeds.

The cost is based on the animal, property access, height, entry points, removal requirements and any exclusion or repair work needed. If an inspection fee applies, it is explained before the visit. Recommended work and pricing are discussed before service proceeds.

Reliant will confirm the earliest available appointment after reviewing the property location, access requirements and reported activity. Same-day service may sometimes be available, but it is not guaranteed.

Start with what you have noticed.

When you contact Reliant, tell us where the activity is occurring, what you have seen or heard and which parts of the property may be involved.

Photos and access details can help us understand the request before confirming the next step. Inspection pricing and any proposed removal, exclusion or repair work are discussed for the specific property.
