Important Notice: Ethical Wildlife Solutions places significant emphasis on the ethical treatment of animals. However, we do not engage in live trapping of mice or rats. Rats, unlike raccoons, are challenging to capture due to their exceptional cleverness. While it is theoretically possible, it necessitates a considerable investment of time, patience, and optimism. Instead, we provide an Exclusion service, which involves sealing and preventing the re-entry of any animals.
Our trapping service adheres to all Maine State guidelines and laws for the humane trapping and relocation of larger nuisance animals. We conduct 5 days of continuous trapping using a variety of traps to ensure the safety and welfare of the animals.
Special baits and lures are used to target specific species, and captured animals are immediately evaluated for their health. Healthy animals are transported to safe locations in compliance with Maine State Animal Damage Control laws, while sick animals are brought to Wildlife Rehabilitation Experts we have partnered with.
At the end of the trapping period, all traps are removed from the property, and any specified animal deterrents are applied or installed.
​
** Please note that trapping is not a guaranteed service. **
Typical animals that may require trapping include Groundhogs, Skunks, Fox, Red/Gray Squirrels, Raccoons, and Opossums and many more.
