What to know about Wildlife removal

Wildlife removal deals with the animals that move into the parts of a house people rarely see: raccoons in the attic or chimney, squirrels in soffits and wall cavities, skunks under decks and porches, bats in the attic and birds in vents. Most are looking for a sheltered place to raise their young, which is why many problems begin in late winter and spring. Left alone, they tear insulation, chew wood and wiring, leave droppings and urine, and can carry rabies.

What changes in Montreal

We list 19 areas inside Montreal on their own pages, because a service area is drawn by each pro and does not always reach the whole city. For wildlife removal, the part of town matters as much as the city.

Montreal is the principal city of a wider area we list under the name Greater Montreal, which takes in 63 other places. A pro's service area might be Montreal on its own or the whole of it — we match on the one they gave us.

Montreal publishes its own building-permit page, and it is linked below beside the rules that apply in Quebec. Whether wildlife removal needs a permit is answered there, not in a quote.

Our Quebec guide has no rule written for this trade, so there is none below. That is not the same as nothing applying: ask for proof of insurance, and for anything that touches gas, wiring or drains, ask who is certified to do it.

Montreal is in the Ontario and Quebec zone our seasonal checklists are written for, and this work appears in Spring and Summer on the maintenance calendar. Those notes are about heavy snow, freeze–thaw cycles and ice dams.

Wildlife removal costs in Montreal

Prices depend on the details of your project. We only publish price ranges when they’re backed by real LokalMatch quote data or reliable sources. Until then, here’s what usually changes the price:

  • Type of pest or animal
  • How widespread the problem is
  • Size of the home and number of units affected
  • Treatment method
  • Number of follow-up visits
  • Exclusion work, such as sealing gaps or installing barriers

How to choose wildlife removal companies in Montreal

  • Choose a company that inspects first and identifies the pest before recommending treatment.
  • Ask whether they are licensed to apply pest control products in your province.
  • For wildlife like raccoons, squirrels or birds, look for a company that uses humane removal and seals entry points.
  • Ask how they'll keep children, pets and food safe during and after treatment.
  • Get the treatment plan in writing, including follow-up visits and what happens if the problem comes back.

Questions to ask wildlife removal companies before you hire

  • What pest do you think this is, and how did you identify it?
  • Are you licensed to apply pest control products in my province?
  • What products or methods will you use, and are they safe around children and pets?
  • How do I need to prepare my home before treatment?
  • How many visits are included, and what happens if the problem comes back?
  • Will you seal entry points so the problem doesn't return?

Wildlife removal permits in Montreal

Some wildlife removal work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.

Common wildlife removal questions

Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?

Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.

How many pros will contact me?

We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.

Do I have to hire someone?

No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
