Effective & Humane Wildlife Control

At Pestex, we understand how much havoc raccoons, bats, and other critters can wreak on your home or business property. From breaking into your trash cans to tearing up your attic, wildlife can create a good amount of property damage in a short time, not to mention the threat their presence can pose to human health. That’s why our experienced Boston wildlife control experts offer animal removal services to get your property back to normal as quickly as possible. We service residential and commercial properties throughout Boston and the MetroWest area, including but not limited to Hopkinton, Lexington, Concord, Natick, Newton, Cambridge, Wellesley, Somerville, Ashland, Wayland, Brookline, and Woburn.

Our wildlife removal service commonly removes the following animals:

  • Bats: Though generally not thought well of, bats are important to the environment. They eat a variety of insect pests, including mosquitoes, and environmental protections require care be taken during removal and only during allowed times of year.
  • Birds: Birds enjoy the comfort and protection of an open dryer vent. Nesting leads to health issues and fire hazards. We remove birds and nests, then disinfect the area, replace the dryer vent, and install a cover to protect against future bird activity.
  • Racoons: Racoons have a voracious appetite for just about anything, including your trash. We’ll do a thorough inspection for dens in and around your home, then we’ll remove the animals, and sanitize any den areas found indoors.
  • Skunks: Never mind how they smell, skunks are carriers of rabies, fleas and ticks. We’ll thoroughly inspect for harborage, remove the animals, and clean and sanitize the area. Our Armor Shield services can help.
  • Squirrels: Squirrels can be highly destructive – they tear up insulation in various parts of the house, and cause fire hazards with nesting materials and gnawing on wires. Our Armor Shield services can help.

If you need wildlife safely removed from your property, call Pestex now at (617) 332-3344 or contact us online.

Effective pest control requires eliminating the openings pests are using to enter your home. We offer a variety of exclusion services, including masonry, stonework, and custom chimney caps, plus attic, basement, and crawlspace abatement services. With more than three decades in the pest and wildlife control industry, there is no problem that we haven’t been able to solve for local homes and commercial properties.

We had used Pestex before and were happy with their service, so when Yellowjackets began appearing in our bedroom, we called them right away. It turned out to be a much bigger challenge than anybody expected, but they solved it! The wasps were entering through a gap in the fascia board near the roof line of our old house and then a hidden hole into the attic wall. When two treatments by LeDerrick (100% agree with the compliments in other reviews!) did not work as expected, Pestex escalated to a technical manager, Nick, who was thorough, informative, polite, and patient (with about a dozen coming into the house every day, we couldn't use our bedroom, and I was near hysterical). He drilled holes in the attic wall near the entry point and sprayed. A few days later it was still happening. Nick came back and opened a larger hole in the wall and saw wasps around an old storage space that had been walled off years ago. He treated that plus the original area. Better ... but still happening. So Pestex owner Dan Fleischer took on the challenge. After an extremely thorough examination, he discovered the nest in an unexpected place: inside the bedroom wall, quite a distance from their entry point. He drilled holes in the wall and sprayed. Better ... but still not gone. Dan came back with a machine that impelled the insecticide further inside the walls as well as the space between the bedroom ceiling and the attic floor. That did it! The whole effort took a few weeks, but their persistence, thoroughness, and determination to eliminate this difficult problem paid off. They always asked permission to drill, cut, or even to move furniture. Dan checked back several times to make sure all was well. Plus the office staff are responsive, helpful, and courteous. I highly recommend Pestex!

We called Pestex when we noticed the presence of yellow jackets hovering outside our daughter's bedroom window. Harry, a very affable gentleman took our call and arranged for one of their experts, Dave, to come out. Dave came and did a thorough inspection and treated the areas of activity. Dave was very knowledgeable, patient and diligent and we were very impressed. Within an hour after his visit Dave sent his report. We would certainly recommend this company as their staff and customer service are excellent!! Nicky & Joe, Wellesley MA

I was thoroughly pleased with the service I received, especially their wildlife expert LaDerrick. After fearing birds were in my attic, he assessed the situation and made recommendations to eliminate pest in the house. His calm demeanor certainly influenced my own anxiety. We developed a plan for ongoing evaluation of pest. I would recommend this company, highly— fast, efficient, and thorough.
