The Best Times to Begin Wildlife Pest Exclusion Services

Wildlife pests remain active year-round, but early fall is an ideal time for most states to implement exclusion strategies.

Skipping wildlife control for even one season can increase the risk of an infestation, as these persistent and resourceful creatures will find ways into your home. Their ongoing activity makes it important for homeowners to stay consistent with prevention efforts to keep them from settling in.

Wildlife Seasons Vary by State

In many states, wildlife activity becomes more apparent from September to November as temperatures drop. During this time, animals search for warm places to shelter through the winter, and homes become a top choice.

With natural food supplies dwindling in the colder months, these creatures are even more motivated to find sustenance indoors, making it especially important to put preventive measures in place.

Wildlife Nesting Seasons

In most states, wildlife nesting season peaks between early March and late June. During this time, many species focus on building nests in preparation for their young.

Once animals settle into a nesting spot, they tend to return annually, which can lead to ongoing infestations and escalating property damage. Catching and addressing these issues early in the season helps prevent the challenges that come with wildlife nesting too close to homes.

Protect Your Property from Wildlife All Year Long

To prevent wildlife from becoming a problem in your home throughout the year, consider scheduling a yearly property inspection with experienced exterminators. These inspections are valuable for spotting early signs of activity, allowing for prompt action before small issues escalate into major infestations.


Starting wildlife control measures at the beginning of fall can also strengthen your home’s protection. Reach out to your local wildlife experts before the next active season begins in your area.
