​🐾 What We Remove – Safe, Humane Wildlife Removal Services in Virginia

At BEDR Wildlife Removal, we’re not just animal trappers — we’re your long-term solution for nuisance wildlife in your attic, crawlspace, vents, or yard. Every removal includes a full inspection, humane animal handling, and damage repair and exclusion work to prevent animals from coming back.

We serve residential and commercial properties across Northern Virginia with over 20 years of trusted service. Below are the species we remove most often.

🐿️ Squirrel Removal from Attics and Rooflines

Squirrels can chew their way into your attic and create nests in insulation. Left unchecked, they cause wiring damage, droppings buildup, and roof leaks. We remove squirrels using safe, humane traps and exclusion methods — and seal up every possible entry point to keep them out.

What’s Included:

  • Live trapping or one-way exclusion devices
  • Entry point sealing and roof repair
  • Insulation restoration and cleanup
  • Baby squirrel removal during breeding season

👉 Call Today to stop squirrel damage before it gets worse. We offer same-day squirrel removal in most areas!

🦝 Raccoon Removal and Attic Restoration

Raccoons are strong, messy, and dangerous. They often rip through attic vents and insulation, spreading parasites and disease. We trap and relocate raccoons humanely and repair any attic or roof damage they caused.

What’s Included:

  • Safe raccoon trapping & exclusion
  • Removal of babies and nests
  • Cleanup of feces, urine, and contaminated insulation
  • Entry point sealing and odor control

👉 Don’t waitcall us now for professional raccoon removal before the damage spreads.

🦇 Bat Removal and Guano Cleanup

Bats in your attic can be quiet at first — but over time, they leave behind toxic droppings (guano) and urine that affect air quality and insulation. Because bats are protected, we follow legal, humane exclusion methods that let bats out safely without harming them.

What’s Included:

  • Maternity-safe bat exclusion
  • One-way bat valves for safe removal
  • Sealing entry points after removal
  • Guano cleanup and attic sanitation

👉 Call for licensed bat removal in Virginia — we also provide post-removal attic restoration.

🐦 Bird Nest Removal from Vents

Birds love to nest in dryer vents and bathroom exhaust fans. This can lead to blockages, odors, and fire hazards. We remove active or abandoned nests and install bird-proof vent covers to keep them out for good.

What’s Included:

  • Nest removal and vent inspection
  • Sanitizing of vents and fan housings
  • Vent cover installation (bird-proof)
  • Ongoing bird deterrent options

👉 Need bird nest removal fast? We offer next-day appointments across Northern Virginia!

🦫 Groundhog (Woodchuck) Removal

Groundhogs dig deep tunnels near decks, sheds, and foundations. These tunnels can cause structural shifting and damage to your yard. We humanely trap and remove groundhogs, then help you reinforce the area to prevent new ones from returning.

What’s Included:

  • Humane trapping and relocation
  • Inspection of burrow locations
  • Exclusion or barrier installation
  • Ground-level damage repair

👉 Contact us for groundhog removal near you — stop them before they undermine your structure.

🐍 Snake Removal

Snakes often sneak into crawlspaces, basements, or walls for food or shelter. While most Virginia snakes are non-venomous, it’s never worth the risk. We safely identify and remove the snake, then inspect for possible entry points.

What’s Included:

  • Fast snake identification and removal
  • Entry point sealing
  • Removal of attractants (rodents or nests)
  • Prevention tips and control measures

👉 For emergency snake removal, call us right now. We’re quick, discreet, and experienced.

🦨 Skunk Removal and Odor Control

Skunks are most active at night and can dig under sheds, decks, and porches. If threatened, they spray, leaving behind a foul odor and a difficult cleanup. Our team uses no-spray trapping methods and can install underground barriers to keep them out.

What’s Included:

  • Safe skunk trapping and relocation
  • Barrier installation under decks and sheds
  • Spray cleanup (if needed)
  • Skunk-proofing recommendations

👉 Smelling trouble? Call now for expert skunk control and odor cleanup.

🦡 Opossum Removal

Opossums often enter attics, garages, or crawlspaces to seek shelter, especially during winter. Though generally harmless, they carry parasites, fleas, and ticks, and can damage insulation and ductwork. We trap and relocate them humanely.

What’s Included:

  • Live trapping and relocation
  • Nest and feces removal
  • Entry point sealing
  • Ongoing prevention strategies

👉 Get rid of your opossum problem quickly — trust the experts with over 20 years of experience!

👣 Our Proven 4-Step Wildlife Removal & Animal Control Process

At BEDR Wildlife Removal, we follow a comprehensive and disciplined process that doesn’t just remove animals—it restores your property, protects your home, and prevents future problems. Each step is handled by trained, licensed professionals who understand the habits of the animals we remove and the structural vulnerabilities they exploit. Here’s how we do it:

1. Full Property Inspection

We begin with a thorough interior and exterior inspection of your home or building. Our team identifies every active and potential wildlife entry point—roof gaps, soffit damage, attic vents, crawlspace access, and foundation breaches. We also track signs of animal activity, such as droppings, chew marks, nesting material, odors, and structural damage. There is no guesswork, and no missed spots.

2. Humane Trapping & Removal

Once entry points and nest sites are located, we install legal, humane traps or one-way exclusion devices. We never use poison, toxic bait, or methods that cause animal suffering. Each trapping strategy is species-specific, designed to protect both the animal and your property. Our team monitors progress daily and ensures that every animal is safely and permanently removed.

3. Wildlife Exclusion & Damage Repairs

Removal is only part of the solution. We follow up by sealing every known entry point using critter-proof materials such as steel mesh, reinforced flashing, and wildlife-rated vent covers. We also repair any damage left behind—chewed wood, torn ductwork, ripped insulation, and broken screens. This step ensures that animals can’t return.

4. Cleanup, Sanitization & Restoration

We remove contaminated insulation, animal waste, nesting debris, and organic material. The area is then disinfected with professional-grade sanitizers that eliminate parasites, bacteria, and odor. We also offer attic restoration services to return the space to a safe, livable condition.

✅ One Call. Full Service. Long-Term Results.

BEDR Wildlife Removal delivers more than quick fixes. Our four-step process ensures complete removal, permanent prevention, and professional-grade repairs.

🛠️ Wildlife Damage Repair & Prevention – Fix It Right the First Time

When wild animals get into your attic, walls, or crawlspace, they do more than just make noise—they cause serious structural damage and long-term health risks. Squirrels chew through wiring. Raccoons rip open vents and ducts. Bats and birds contaminate insulation with hazardous waste. And once they’re inside, these animals don’t leave quietly.

At BEDR Wildlife Removal, our job isn’t done when the animal is removed. We go beyond trapping to provide full repair and prevention services designed to secure your home from future infestations.

🛑 Common Wildlife Damage and What We Fix

Animal Damage Caused
Squirrels Chewed electrical wires, shredded insulation
Raccoons Torn air ducts, ripped roof shingles, damaged soffits
Bats Guano buildup (bat droppings) that spreads mold spores
Birds Blocked vents, nests in the bathroom or dryer exhausts

🛠️ Our Wildlife Damage Repairs Include:

  • Sealing holes, cracks, and roofline gaps with durable materials like steel mesh and flashing
  • Replacing or restoring damaged insulation to improve safety and energy efficiency
  • Installing critter-proof vent covers, chimney caps, and crawlspace barriers
  • Reinforcing soffits, fascia boards, and attic fans to block future access
  • Providing full post-removal inspections to confirm all vulnerabilities are corrected

Every repair is done to wildlife exclusion standards—not just patched, but built to withstand re-entry attempts. We don’t just fix what’s broken; we prevent it from happening again.

🧼 Attic Cleanup & Restoration – Make It Safe Again

After wildlife is removed, your attic may still be contaminated. Droppings, urine, nesting material, and decaying organic matter left behind can introduce parasites, bacteria, and respiratory hazards into your home.

Our Attic Restoration Services Include:

  • Safe removal of contaminated insulation, feces, and debris
  • Application of hospital-grade disinfectants and deodorizers
  • Replacement of damaged or soiled insulation with new material that meets modern R-value standards
  • Optional attic air sealing and energy upgrades during restoration

🧪 Did You Know? Bat guano can carry Histoplasma, a fungus that causes respiratory infections in humans. Raccoon feces may contain Leptospira or Baylisascaris, posing severe health risks—especially to children and pets. Our team follows strict sanitization protocols to keep your attic safe and livable.

🕊️ Dead Animal Removal – Fast, Clean & Discreet

Finding a dead animal on your property is unpleasant—and potentially dangerous. Whether it’s a deer on your lawn, a raccoon under your porch, or a squirrel in your attic, our technicians remove the carcass quickly and discreetly.

Our Dead Animal Removal Service Includes:

  • Safe retrieval and disposal according to local regulations
  • Complete disinfection of the affected area
  • Odor neutralization and pest control treatments to prevent secondary infestations (e.g., flies, maggots, scavengers)
  • Follow-up inspection for signs of how the animal entered or became trapped

We offer emergency response for urgent issues, especially when dead animals are located near HVAC intakes or in high-traffic areas of your home.

✅ Don’t Just Remove Wildlife. Fix the Problem for Good.

At BEDR Wildlife Removal, we solve the entire problem, not just the visible part. From sealing up entry points to replacing insulation and cleaning up droppings, we restore your home to a clean, safe, wildlife-free condition.

How Much Does Wildlife Removal Cost In Virginia?

If you’re dealing with unwanted animals in your attic, walls, or roof, it’s important to understand what goes into the cost of wildlife removal. The price depends on the type of animal, where it’s hiding, how many are present, and the kind of damage they’ve caused. On average, removal services can range from $200 to $700, but the total cost can be higher if repairs or cleanup are needed.

Here’s a closer look at average removal costs for the most common nuisance animals:

Animal Average Cost Range
Squirrels $200–$600
Raccoons $200–$600
Bats $230–$700
Bird Nests $100–$750

What Affects the Cost?

Each situation is different, but here are the main factors that influence price:

  • Type of Animal: Animals like bats and raccoons require extra safety steps. Bats are protected in many states and must be removed without harm.

  • Location of the Animal: Animals in the attic, chimney, or behind walls take more time and effort to reach and remove.

  • Size of Infestation: One squirrel is easier to handle than a full nest or colony of bats. More animals usually mean more cost.

  • Damage Repair: Wildlife often causes damage—chewing wires, tearing insulation, or creating nesting messes. Cleanup and repairs add to the final cost.

  • Prevention Work: Sealing up entry points (called “exclusion”) is key to keeping animals from coming back. This may include sealing vents, patching holes, or installing chimney caps.

What is the Cost of Wildlife Removal by Animal Type?

 

Squirrel Removal:


Expect to pay around $200 to $600. Squirrels often chew through soffits, vents, and insulation, especially in attics. Removal includes trapping or one-way door systems, followed by sealing up entry holes and repairing damage.

Raccoon Removal:


Raccoons are larger and stronger, and they often rip into roofs or soffits to get inside. Removal typically costs $200 to $600, depending on where they’re hiding and if babies are present. Attic cleanup and odor control may add to the cost.

Bat Removal:


Because bats are protected in many areas, removal must be done carefully and legally—usually with a one-way exclusion device. Bat removal costs $230 to $700 on average, not including guano cleanup or insulation replacement, which can significantly increase the price.

Bird Nest Removal:


Bird nests in vents, chimneys, or eaves may seem harmless, but they can block airflow and carry mites or bacteria. Removal costs range from $100 to $750, depending on accessibility and whether cleanup or re-nesting prevention (like vent guards) is needed.

Is the cost of Wildlife Removal Worth It?

Yes—professional wildlife removal is absolutely worth it. Wild animals can cause serious property damage and even pose health risks. A trained wildlife technician will safely and humanely remove the animals, seal up all entry points, and repair any damage left behind.

Trying to remove animals on your own can be dangerous and often leads to the same problem returning. Professional services may seem like a big upfront cost, but they prevent larger, more expensive issues down the road.
