Ottawa-Gatineau’s Wildlife Control Experts

With 25 years of hands-on experience, Aspen Wildlife Control removes raccoons, squirrels, bats, mice, rats, birds, skunks, and more using certified humane techniques — safe for your family and the local ecosystem.

Raccoon Removal

Raccoons are one of the most destructive wildlife threats to Ottawa-Gatineau — invading attics, tearing insulation, and returning seasonally. Our specialists safely remove raccoons using humane, guaranteed techniques. Available 24/7

Squirrel Removal

Squirrels can chew through electrical wiring and structural wood within weeks of entering your home or business. Our team locates entry points, removes the animals humanely, and seals access to prevent re-entry. Fast service across Ottawa and Gatineau.

Bird Removal

Nesting birds in your attic or vents create blockages, health risks, and ongoing noise issues. We remove birds and their nests humanely while protecting your home against future nesting — without harming protected species.

Bat Removal

Bats in your attic require a specialized approach — they’re a protected species and cannot be trapped or killed. Our certified specialists use humane exclusion techniques to safely remove bats and seal entry points permanently. Available 24/7.

Skunk Removal

Skunks denning under your deck or shed pose a spray risk and carry parasites. Our team removes skunks safely and discreetly, eliminating odor and securing the area to prevent them from returning.

Mice Removal

Mice multiply fast — a small intrusion becomes a full infestation within weeks. We identify entry points, remove the colony, and implement long-term exclusion measures to keep your home rodent-free.

Rat Removal

Rats cause serious structural and health risks when left untreated. We conduct a full property assessment, remove the infestation, and provide prevention measures tailored to your property.

Wasp & Removal

Wasp nests near entry points, eaves, or play areas are an immediate safety hazard. We safely remove nests and treat affected areas — with careful attention to protecting bee colonies wherever possible.
