Katy Wildlife Control

Also Serving Sugar Land, Cypress, and the Houston Area

Wildlife, including raccoons, squirrels, or possums, may seem harmless until they find their way into your home or property. These unwelcome guests can cause significant damage and create health concerns. Aviator Pest Control offers safe and humane wildlife control that can protect your property and your peace of mind. We were honored to be recognized as Katy’s Best Pest Control in 2022, and we continue to work hard to earn the trust of every new customer. 

When you call our team, we start by listening carefully to what you are experiencing—noises in the attic, damage to your yard, or droppings in a storage area—so we can recommend the right plan. We then schedule a thorough inspection of your home or business, checking common entry points like rooflines, vents, and gaps around foundations that are often affected by seasonal weather in the Katy area. This lets us confirm which animals are involved and how extensive the activity is before we move forward with removal and exclusion.

Call (832) 864-9713 today. We’re open Monday through Saturday, and we strive for same-day scheduling.

How We Solve Common Wildlife Challenges

Whatever challenge you face with wildlife, do not hesitate to call our office. Here is how we handle some of the most frequently recurring issues…

Before we set any traps or begin physical removal, we talk with you about where you have seen or heard activity and walk the interior and exterior of your property. In many Katy neighborhoods, animals follow tree lines, fences, and drainage areas, so we pay close attention to these features as we inspect. This helps us identify travel paths and nesting spots so that our plan does more than move an animal—our goal is to break the pattern that keeps bringing them back to your home or business.

Here are some of the most common wildlife problems we solve for local property owners:

• Recurring attic noises that point to animals nesting in insulation, chewing on structural wood, or moving along rooflines during early morning or evening hours.
• Damage to yards and landscaping such as dug-up turf, scattered trash, or disturbed garden beds that suggest animals are feeding or sheltering on your property.
• Visible droppings or tracks around patios, garages, or storage areas that can indicate regular travel paths and potential health concerns.
• Entry points along roofs and foundations including loose vents, gaps in siding, and openings around utility lines that allow animals to get inside your home or business.
• Ongoing wildlife activity despite DIY efforts where traps or repellents have not worked, and it is time to bring in a professional animal removal company Katy residents can rely on.

Possums

Possums often find their way into your crawl spaces or garages, causing messes and potential health hazards. We use humane traps to safely remove these nocturnal visitors. After removal, we will seal off entry points and offer guidance on how you can make your property less appealing to possums. 

Our technicians also discuss simple changes that can make a big difference, such as securing pet food, bird seed, and trash can lids that may be drawing possums close to your doors. In some Katy-area homes, we may recommend adjusting outdoor lighting or clearing low-lying brush where these animals like to hide during the day. 

Raccoons

Raccoons are common in our area. They are known for their cleverness and ability to cause significant disruption. In their search for shelter, they can infest attics and damage roofs or insulation. Our team uses humane exclusion techniques to trap and remove raccoons safely. We then inspect and repair potential entry points to reduce the chances of further visits.

Because raccoons are strong and curious, we often see them tampering with soffits, roof vents, and loose siding on homes throughout Katy and nearby communities. After we have removed the animals, we can talk with you about reinforcing these weak spots and cleaning up contaminated insulation so odors and pheromones do not attract new raccoons. 

Skunks

Skunks are famous for their pungent spray, but they can also damage your lawn and garden while searching for food. Our team acts quickly to safely remove skunks using humane trapping methods, minimizing the risk of stress-induced spraying. To keep them from coming back, we offer strategies such as sealing burrows and maintaining a clean yard.

In many parts of the Katy area, skunks are attracted to grub-rich lawns, low decks, and gaps under sheds that provide easy shelter. During our visit, we look for these problem areas and talk through practical ways to make them less comfortable for skunks, such as adding screening, addressing standing water, and adjusting how you store outdoor items. 

Squirrels

Squirrels can cause havoc when they decide to chew through your attic or walls in search of a cozy nesting spot. Our technicians identify their access points and use humane exclusion methods to relocate them. Once we have removed the squirrels, we provide recommendations to secure your attic, such as repairing vents and trimming tree branches near your roofline.

We also pay close attention to how squirrels are using the trees and utility lines around your Katy property. If we see patterns that make it easy for them to jump to your roof, we will point those out and suggest practical changes you can make over time. 

Birds

Birds may seem harmless, but nesting in vents or gutters can lead to blockages and messes. We know how to deter nuisance birds like pigeons and sparrows from causing issues around your property. We use safe exclusion methods to gently remove the birds, and we can install deterrents like bird spikes or netting to discourage nest-building in the future.

In some homes and businesses, we may also recommend cleaning and sanitizing affected vent lines so dust, feathers, and droppings do not impact air quality. We take time to explain how small maintenance steps—such as keeping dryer vents clear and repairing damaged soffit screens—can prevent new nesting attempts. 

Bats

Bats play a vital role in our ecosystem, but they can become a problem when they roost in your home. Along with the noise, they can leave behind droppings, which pose health risks. Our team carefully evaluates the infestation, delivering safe, humane removal without disrupting their natural behavior. We seal off roosting spots and provide follow-up inspections to help keep bats at bay. 

Because bat work must be handled carefully, we take extra time to explain each step of the process and answer your questions before we begin. During our visit, we check nearby structures and rooflines for other gaps that could become future roosting spots and talk through the timing of any follow-up visits. 

Our Wildlife Removal Process in Katy

When animals get into your home or business, you want a clear plan that gets them out and keeps them from returning. We follow a step-by-step process so you always know what is happening and why. This approach helps protect your property, supports the health of your family or employees, and respects the role these animals play in the environment around Katy.

We start with a detailed inspection of the structure and surrounding yard, looking for droppings, damage, and active entry points. Once we understand what is happening, we talk through our findings with you and explain the different options we can use for removal, from one-way doors to live trapping.
