The Burlington Wildlife Removal Process
Wildlife problems are stressful, but getting them out doesn’t have to be. Our simple four-step process makes sure your home stays critter-free.
Prefer we contact you? No problem, please fill out our form below.
Step 1: Property Inspection
We start with a detailed inspection of your home, attic, and exterior to identify entry points, nesting areas, and animal activity. If something’s scratching in the walls or moving in your ceiling, we’ll find out exactly what it is and how it got in.
Step 2: Safe Animal Removal
Using ethical removal methods, we gently evict wildlife from your property. We use one-way doors, hand-removal of babies, and relocation techniques to ensure animals leave safely and can’t return.
Step 3: Securing & Reinforcing Entry Points
Once animals are out, we seal off access points using high-quality materials like steel mesh and flashing. Our reinforcements are built to last through Burlington’s tough winters and unpredictable weather, keeping your home protected year-round.
Step 4: Sanitization & Prevention
Wildlife can leave behind droppings, nesting debris, and pheromones that attract more animals. We clean and disinfect affected areas, then provide tips on preventing future wildlife issues—like trimming trees near the roof and securing outdoor garbage bins.

FAQs for Wildlife Control in Burlington
We’re committed to keeping Burlington homes wildlife-free, providing humane and effective wildlife removal throughout the city.
Does Burlington have bylaws against feeding raccoons or other wildlife?
Yes, Burlington prohibits feeding wild animals on both public and private property under its Animal Control By-law (60-2005) and Lot Maintenance By-law (49-2022). Property owners must store garbage and compost properly to avoid attracting raccoons, rodents, or birds. Violators can be fined $250 or more for creating a nuisance.
Who do I call if I find an injured bat or orphaned raccoon in Burlington?
Contact Burlington Animal Services at 905-335-7777 for sick, injured, or orphaned wildlife. They can assess the situation and direct you to licensed rehabilitators. Avoid handling wildlife, especially bats, as they can carry rabies.
Will the City of Burlington remove a raccoon or mice from my house?
No, Burlington does not remove wildlife from private homes. Homeowners are responsible for hiring professional wildlife removal services. The city focuses on bylaw enforcement and public health concerns but does not offer pest control services.
Are raccoons a problem in certain Burlington neighborhoods?
Yes, raccoons are common throughout Burlington, particularly near ravines and wooded areas like Roseland, Aldershot, and around the Royal Botanical Gardens. The city recommends securing garbage bins, removing food sources, and sealing attic or chimney openings to prevent raccoons from taking up residence.
Does Burlington have a rat or mouse problem, and how is it managed?
Rodents have become a growing concern in older neighborhoods and near construction areas. Burlington requires homeowners to keep garbage secured and properties maintained to prevent infestations. If a rodent issue arises in your home, you must hire a private pest control company.
Can I remove bats from my Burlington attic anytime?
Bats are protected in Ontario, and exclusions must be done outside of pup season (May–July) to prevent trapping young bats inside. It’s illegal to harm bats, so professional removal is required to install one-way exits while ensuring compliance with wildlife regulations.
Can I trap and relocate a raccoon in Burlington?
Ontario law allows trapping on private property, but you must release the animal within 1 km of where it was captured. Relocating raccoons further away is illegal and ineffective, as they often return. A wildlife professional can ensure legal and humane removal.
What are some unique wildlife concerns in Burlington?
North Burlington sees higher bat activity near the Escarpment, while areas near the lake, like Shoreacres and Brant Street, experience more bird-related issues. Residents near Roseland Creek often report raccoons and squirrels in attics due to mature trees providing easy roof access. The city advises wildlife-proofing homes, particularly in high-risk areas.
