Boulder County and surrounding communities
We respond same-day to wildlife calls throughout Boulder County. Foothills properties, university-area homes, and newer developments all see different species pressure — we know the local patterns.
Also serving Nederland, Eldorado Springs, Gold Hill, Niwot, and the unincorporated foothills above Boulder.
How it works
From first call to final follow-up
Every job follows the same four-step process so you know exactly what to expect.
Custom removal plan and flat-rate quote
You get a written quote before any trapping or exclusion work begins. We explain the timeline, trapping locations, and any code requirements (especially for bat work) before you commit.
Humane removal or one-way exclusion
Depending on the species, we either set live traps and check them daily, or install one-way exclusion devices that let animals leave but not re-enter. Both methods are humane and Colorado-compliant.
Sealing, sanitation, and a written guarantee
Once animals are out, we seal every entry point with steel mesh and exterior-grade caulk, sanitize affected attic or crawl-space areas, and back the exclusion with a written re-entry guarantee.
Why Boulder homeowners call us
Built for Boulder County conditions
Wildlife pressure in Boulder is different from suburban Denver or eastern Colorado. Our work is built around the species and structures we actually see here.
Local-only operation
We only work Boulder County. That means faster response times — usually under 90 minutes to Boulder, Longmont, Lafayette, and Louisville — and detailed knowledge of which neighborhoods see which species. We've worked attics in Mapleton Hill, dealt with skunks on University Hill, and excluded bats from century-old farmhouses near Niwot.
Compliance-first approach
Colorado Parks and Wildlife regulates wildlife handling tightly — especially for bats, raptors, and rabies-vector species. We hold the required wildlife damage control license and follow CPW maternity-season restrictions on bat exclusion (no full exclusion April 15–August 15). Cheaper operators routinely violate these rules.
Exclusion, not just removal
Trapping an animal without sealing the entry point guarantees the next one moves in. Every removal job ends with full exclusion: steel mesh on every gap larger than a quarter, sealed soffit returns, capped chimneys, and screened roof vents. This is what makes our work last.
Transparent flat-rate pricing
You get a written quote before work begins, with no hourly surprises. Most single-animal removals fall in a tight band ($300–$650), and we'll tell you upfront if the situation is more involved (multiple raccoons, large bat colony, full attic decontamination).
FAQ
Common questions about Boulder wildlife removal
How quickly can you respond to a wildlife emergency in Boulder?
We offer same-day response across Boulder County for most calls, with 24/7 availability for active animals inside living spaces — bats in bedrooms, raccoons in chimneys, skunks under porches. Most jobs in Boulder, Longmont, Lafayette, and Louisville are reached within 90 minutes.
Do you remove animals humanely?
Yes. We use live trapping, one-way exclusion devices, and entry-point sealing — never poisons or lethal traps unless required by law (such as for confirmed rabies-vector exposures). All removed animals are released or handled in compliance with Colorado Parks and Wildlife regulations.
Why can't you remove bats during summer in Colorado?
Colorado Parks and Wildlife restricts bat exclusion from approximately April 15 through August 15 to protect flightless pups during maternity season. Sealing a colony out during this window would trap pups inside. We perform inspections and seal secondary entry points during this period, then complete full exclusion in late summer or fall.
How much does wildlife removal cost in Boulder?
Most single-animal removals (raccoon, squirrel, skunk) in Boulder County run $300–$650 depending on access and trapping duration. Bat exclusion is more involved and typically ranges $750–$2,800 based on home size and entry points. Bird exclusion varies widely with the structure. All quotes start with a free on-site inspection.
What areas do you serve?
We serve all of Boulder County including Boulder, Longmont, Lafayette, Louisville, Erie, Superior, and the foothills communities of Nederland, Eldorado Springs, and Gold Hill.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We carry full liability insurance, are NWCOA (National Wildlife Control Operators Association) certified, and hold the required Colorado Parks and Wildlife wildlife damage control license.
