WILDLIFE PROFESSIONAL LICENSED
Professional Wildlife Removal & Control for Your Property
Wildlife problems are not always limited to the animal you see or hear. Raccoons, squirrels, bats, groundhogs, skunks, and other wildlife may enter through damaged soffits, roof openings, vents, chimneys, gaps around the structure, or areas beneath decks and sheds.
GIROSS provides professional wildlife removal and control services focused on identifying the source of the activity, determining how the animal is accessing the property, and providing the appropriate removal or control solution. When entry points or vulnerable areas are found, we can also recommend exclusion and prevention measures to help reduce the risk of the problem returning.
Whether you are hearing movement in the attic, finding signs of wildlife around your home, or repeatedly seeing animals around the property, our goal is to address the problem at its source—not simply the animal you happen to see.

Wildlife Removal Is More Than Just Getting the Animal Out
Removing the animal may solve the immediate problem—but if the way it got in is never addressed, the problem can happen again. GIROSS looks beyond the visible wildlife to help identify what is happening, where the activity is coming from, and what may need to be addressed to help protect your property from recurring wildlife problems.
Complete Wildlife Removal Services
A wildlife problem can involve much more than the animal you see. Scratching in the attic, movement inside a wall, damaged soffits, disturbed vents, droppings, nesting materials, burrows around the property, or repeated wildlife activity can point to a larger problem that needs to be properly evaluated.
GIROSS provides wildlife removal services based on the animal involved, where the activity is occurring, and the conditions found at the property. Our approach may include inspection, wildlife identification, removal or control, evaluation of accessible entry points, cleanup recommendations, and wildlife exclusion solutions when appropriate.
We handle wildlife problems involving attics, walls, crawl spaces, chimneys, rooflines, soffits, vents, decks, sheds, and other areas around residential and commercial properties. Whether you are dealing with squirrels overhead, a raccoon entering the attic, bats around the roofline, a groundhog burrowing beneath a structure, or a snake appearing around the property, the solution should address the specific situation—not rely on a one-size-fits-all approach.
Our goal is to give you a clear understanding of what is happening, what needs to be addressed, and the appropriate next steps to help resolve the wildlife problem and reduce the chance of recurring activity.

Residential & Commercial Wildlife Removal Services
Wildlife problems can affect everything from single-family homes and townhomes to offices, retail properties, multifamily buildings, and other commercial facilities. Where the animal is located, how it is accessing the structure, and how the property is used can all influence the appropriate solution.
Residential Wildlife Removal
Hearing scratching above the ceiling, finding droppings in the attic, seeing an animal enter through the roofline, or discovering burrows around your yard can quickly become a concern for your home and family.
GIROSS provides residential wildlife removal services for problems involving attics, walls, chimneys, vents, crawl spaces, soffits, roofs, garages, decks, sheds, and other areas around the home. We handle nuisance wildlife including squirrels, raccoons, bats, groundhogs, skunks, opossums, snakes, and other wildlife commonly found around residential properties.
Whether the animal is already inside the structure or repeatedly appearing around the property, we focus on understanding the specific situation and helping homeowners take the appropriate next steps.
Commercial Wildlife Control
Wildlife activity around a commercial property can create a different set of concerns. Animals entering roof areas, mechanical or ventilation openings, loading areas, exterior structures, or other parts of a building can interfere with normal operations and create recurring maintenance problems if the source is not addressed.
GIROSS provides commercial wildlife control services for offices, retail properties, multifamily buildings, property management facilities, and other commercial locations. We can evaluate accessible wildlife activity and affected areas while working with property owners, managers, and maintenance personnel to determine an appropriate course of action.
From an isolated wildlife problem to recurring activity around a building, GIROSS provides practical solutions based on the property, the animal involved, and the conditions found on site.

Wildlife We Remove & Control
Different animals create different problems around a property. Where you hear the activity, where the animal is entering, and the signs it leaves behind can help determine what type of wildlife may be involved and what solution is appropriate. GIROSS provides professional wildlife removal and control for common nuisance wildlife throughout Maryland, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia.
Raccoon Removal
Raccoons can take advantage of damaged soffits, roof openings, chimneys, vents, and other vulnerable areas to gain access to attics and sheltered spaces. Homeowners may first notice heavy movement overhead, nighttime noises, disturbed insulation, droppings, or visible damage around an entry area.
GIROSS provides professional raccoon removal and control based on where the activity is occurring and how the animal is using the property. Once the immediate problem is addressed, identifying vulnerable access areas can be an important step in reducing the chance of another raccoon using the same location.
Hearing heavy movement in your attic or seeing raccoons around your roof? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 for professional raccoon removal.
Squirrel Removal
Scratching, running, or chewing sounds in the attic—especially during daytime hours—can be a sign of squirrel activity. Squirrels commonly investigate roof edges, soffits, fascia areas, vents, and existing gaps where they may gain access to protected areas of a home.
GIROSS provides professional squirrel removal for attic and structural wildlife problems. We evaluate the area where activity has been reported, look for signs of squirrel access, and determine the appropriate removal or control approach for the situation.
Because squirrels may continue using a familiar access route, addressing vulnerable entry areas after the wildlife problem has been resolved can be an important part of preventing recurring activity.
Squirrels in your attic or roofline? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 to schedule squirrel removal service.
Bat Removal & Exclusion
Bats can enter through small openings along rooflines, vents, fascia, soffits, flashing, and other gaps leading into attics or upper structural areas. You may notice bats emerging around dusk, hear activity above ceilings, or discover droppings beneath an area they are using.
Bat problems require the right approach. GIROSS evaluates the location and signs of activity to determine an appropriate bat removal and exclusion strategy while considering applicable wildlife requirements and seasonal conditions.
Because even small openings may provide access, identifying the areas bats are using is an important part of developing a long-term solution.
Seeing bats around your roofline or suspect bats in the attic? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 for a professional bat inspection.
Snake Removal
Finding a snake near your home, inside a garage, basement, crawl space, or around a deck can be alarming—especially when you do not know how it reached the area or whether conditions around the property are attracting snakes.
GIROSS provides professional snake removal and control for residential and commercial properties. In addition to addressing the immediate snake problem, we can evaluate accessible areas where snakes may be sheltering or entering and identify property conditions that may contribute to repeated activity.
Gaps around structures, sheltered spaces, vegetation, debris, and the presence of prey can all influence snake activity around a property. Understanding why snakes are appearing can be just as important as removing the one you see.
Snake inside or around your property? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 for professional snake removal.
Skunk Removal
Skunks may establish shelter beneath decks, porches, sheds, additions, and other protected areas around a property. Strong odor is often the first indication of activity, but homeowners may also notice digging, disturbed soil, or repeated nighttime movement.
GIROSS provides professional skunk removal and control while evaluating where the animal is sheltering and what may be contributing to activity around the property. When appropriate, vulnerable areas can also be evaluated for measures that may help discourage future denning.
Skunk under your deck, porch, or shed? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 for professional skunk removal.
Opossum Removal
Opossums frequently use accessible crawl spaces, garages, sheds, decks, and other sheltered areas for temporary refuge. Their presence can sometimes indicate that an opening or protected space around the property is easily accessible to wildlife.
GIROSS provides professional opossum removal and evaluates the affected area to help determine why the animal is using the property and whether vulnerable access areas should be addressed.
Opossum inside or around your property? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 to schedule wildlife removal service.
Groundhog Removal
Groundhogs can create extensive burrow systems around yards and may dig beneath sheds, decks, porches, fences, and areas near structures. Repeated digging and expanding burrows can disturb landscaping and create ongoing problems around the property.
GIROSS provides professional groundhog removal and control based on the location of the burrow, observed activity, and conditions around the property. We can also evaluate areas that may continue providing shelter or encourage recurring groundhog activity after the immediate problem is addressed.
If you are seeing fresh soil, large burrow openings, damaged landscaping, or a groundhog repeatedly entering the same area, addressing the activity early can help prevent the burrow system from becoming a larger problem.

Professional Wildlife Work Requires the Right Experience and Equipment
Wildlife problems can occur in difficult and potentially hazardous areas—including attics, rooftops, chimneys, soffits, crawl spaces, and elevated sections of a building. Reaching these areas safely and evaluating the problem properly may require specialized access equipment, protective gear, and experience working around different types of structures.
GIROSS is licensed and operator-insured for wildlife work, including high-access situations involving multi-story properties and elevated entry areas. Our technicians use professional equipment and appropriate safety procedures while working around your home or commercial property. Maryland regulates wildlife damage control activities and licenses qualified Wildlife Damage Control Operators.
From accessing difficult rooflines to investigating wildlife activity in confined or hard-to-reach areas, we approach each property according to the conditions found on site rather than assuming every wildlife problem can be handled the same way.
Wildlife activity in a difficult or elevated area? Call GIROSS 240-780-7174 to discuss the problem and schedule an inspection.
Wildlife Exclusion & Prevention
Removing wildlife addresses the immediate problem. Wildlife exclusion focuses on helping prevent the next one.
Wildlife exclusion means identifying and addressing vulnerable openings or access areas that animals may use to enter a structure. Depending on the property and the wildlife involved, these areas may include damaged soffits, roofline gaps, vents, openings around chimneys, fascia, crawl-space access points, or other exterior vulnerabilities.
Once the wildlife situation has been properly resolved, GIROSS can evaluate accessible entry areas and recommend appropriate exclusion solutions. The objective is not simply to close a visible hole—it is to understand how the animal has been using the structure and determine which vulnerable areas should be addressed without interfering with necessary ventilation or normal building functions.
Helping Reduce Recurring Wildlife Problems
Wildlife may return to familiar shelter or continue investigating areas that provide access, food, cover, or protection. For that reason, prevention can also involve identifying conditions around the property that may contribute to recurring activity.
Depending on the situation, recommendations may involve securing appropriate openings, addressing damaged exterior components, protecting vulnerable vents, evaluating areas beneath decks or sheds, or correcting other accessible conditions that can make a property more attractive or easier for wildlife to use.
No property can be made completely wildlife-proof, but properly addressing known access points and vulnerable areas can significantly reduce opportunities for animals to enter again.

How Our Professional Wildlife Removal Process Works
Every wildlife situation is different, but knowing what to expect can make the process much easier. GIROSS follows a practical approach based on the animal involved, where the activity is occurring, accessibility, and the conditions found at the property.
1. Tell Us What You Are Seeing or Hearing
You do not need to know exactly what animal is causing the problem before calling. Tell us what you have noticed—scratching in the attic or walls, nighttime movement, droppings, an animal entering the roofline, burrows in the yard, or wildlife repeatedly appearing around the property.
2. Wildlife Inspection & Activity Assessment
We inspect accessible affected areas and look for signs that can help identify the type and location of wildlife activity. Depending on the situation, this may include attics, rooflines, soffits, vents, chimneys, crawl spaces, decks, sheds, or exterior areas around the property.
3. Identify the Wildlife & Source of the Problem
Using the activity, visible evidence, location, and property conditions, we work to determine what wildlife is involved and where the problem is occurring. We also evaluate accessible areas that may be allowing the animal to enter or shelter around the property.
4. Recommend the Appropriate Solution
Once the situation has been evaluated, we explain what was found and recommend the appropriate wildlife removal or control approach. The solution depends on the species involved, location, accessibility, property conditions, and applicable wildlife requirements.
5. Wildlife Removal or Control
GIROSS performs the appropriate removal or control service for the situation. Because squirrels, raccoons, bats, snakes, groundhogs, skunks, and other wildlife behave differently, the method used is based on the specific problem rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
6. Evaluate Exclusion & Prevention Needs
After the immediate wildlife situation has been addressed, we can evaluate accessible entry points and vulnerable areas that may need attention. When appropriate, we recommend wildlife exclusion or prevention measures designed to help reduce the chance of recurring activity.
7. Explain What Comes Next
Before the service is complete, we want you to understand what was addressed and whether additional steps are recommended. Depending on the situation, that may include exclusion work, cleanup, repairs, monitoring, or other preventive measures.
Not sure what animal is causing the problem? That is okay. Start with what you are hearing or seeing and let GIROSS help identify the next step.

Wildlife Inside Your Property? Get Professional Help Before the Problem Gets Worse.
Wildlife activity can start with a few noises in the attic, a damaged vent, a burrow near the house, or an animal appearing around the same area repeatedly. But when wildlife finds shelter, access, or a reliable place to return to, a small problem can become more difficult to resolve over time.
Squirrels and raccoons may disturb insulation or damage vulnerable areas while moving through attics and roof spaces. Bats can use small openings to access upper structural areas. Groundhogs can expand burrows beneath decks, sheds, and areas near structures, while skunks and other wildlife may establish shelter around protected spaces. Even repeated snake activity can indicate conditions around the property that deserve closer attention.
Waiting can also make it harder to determine how wildlife is using the property—especially if animals continue entering through the same vulnerable area or create additional activity elsewhere.
You do not need to know exactly what animal is involved before calling. If you are hearing scratching, seeing wildlife enter or leave the structure, finding droppings or nesting materials, noticing burrows, or repeatedly seeing animals around your property, GIROSS can help determine the appropriate next step.
Don’t wait for recurring wildlife activity to become a larger property problem.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wildlife Removal
How do I know if I need professional wildlife removal?
Scratching or movement in the attic or walls, droppings, nesting materials, damaged soffits or vents, burrows around the property, strong wildlife odors, or repeatedly seeing animals entering the same area can all indicate an active wildlife problem.
You do not need to identify the animal yourself. If you are seeing or hearing signs of activity, GIROSS can inspect the affected area and help determine the appropriate next step.
What animals does GIROSS remove?
GIROSS provides professional removal and control for nuisance wildlife including squirrels, raccoons, bats, groundhogs, skunks, opossums, snakes, and other wildlife depending on the situation and location.
Because different species behave differently, the appropriate removal or control approach depends on the animal involved, where the activity is occurring, accessibility, and property conditions.
What should I do if I hear scratching in my attic or walls?
Try to note where and when you hear the activity. Daytime versus nighttime movement, the location of the noise, and any visible signs around the exterior can provide useful clues about what may be inside.
Avoid sealing an opening simply because you suspect it is being used by wildlife. An animal could still be inside, and different species may require different approaches.
Call GIROSS and tell us what you are hearing and where it is happening. We can help determine whether a wildlife inspection is appropriate.
Can you remove wildlife from attics, walls, chimneys, vents, and other difficult areas?
Yes. GIROSS handles wildlife problems involving attics, walls, rooflines, soffits, chimneys, vents, crawl spaces, garages, decks, sheds, and other accessible areas around residential and commercial properties.
Some wildlife problems occur in elevated or difficult-to-reach locations. GIROSS is licensed and operator-insured for wildlife work involving high-access areas and uses appropriate equipment and procedures based on site conditions.
What is wildlife exclusion?
Wildlife exclusion is the process of addressing appropriate openings or vulnerable areas animals may use to enter a structure.
Depending on the property, these may include damaged soffits, roofline gaps, vents, openings around chimneys, fascia areas, crawl-space access points, and other exterior vulnerabilities.
Exclusion is different from simply removing an animal. When appropriate, it becomes part of helping reduce the opportunity for wildlife to re-enter after the immediate problem has been resolved.
Can wildlife come back after it has been removed?
It can. Removing an animal does not automatically eliminate the conditions that allowed wildlife to access or use the property.
If an entry point remains available—or the property continues providing accessible shelter—wildlife may investigate or use the area again. That is why GIROSS may recommend exclusion or preventive measures when vulnerable areas are identified.
How quickly can GIROSS respond to a wildlife problem?
Response times depend on your location, the type of wildlife activity, accessibility, and current scheduling availability. When you contact GIROSS, let us know what you are seeing or hearing, where the activity is occurring, and when you first noticed the problem.
Our team can use that information to better understand the situation, confirm service availability in your area, and schedule the appropriate wildlife inspection or service as soon as possible.
If you are hearing animals in an attic or walls, seeing wildlife entering the structure, or noticing active wildlife around your property, contact GIROSS so we can evaluate the situation and recommend the appropriate next step.
How much does wildlife removal cost?
The cost of wildlife removal depends on the specific situation. Factors can include the animal involved, where it is located, accessibility, the type of removal or control required, and whether exclusion, cleanup, repairs, or other services are recommended.
An animal in an easily accessible area may involve a different scope of work than wildlife inside an attic, chimney, wall, roof area, or another difficult location.
GIROSS can evaluate the situation and explain the recommended service and associated cost before additional work is performed.
What are the signs of wildlife in an attic or walls?
Common signs of wildlife activity in an attic or walls can include scratching, running, chewing, or movement sounds, especially during the early morning, evening, or nighttime. Homeowners may also notice damaged vents or soffits, disturbed insulation, droppings, nesting material, or visible entry points around the roofline.
Different animals can create similar signs, so identifying the source of the activity is an important part of determining the appropriate solution. GIROSS can inspect the affected areas, identify signs of wildlife activity, determine what animal may be involved, and recommend the appropriate removal, control, or exclusion approach.
Do you provide residential and commercial wildlife removal?
Yes. GIROSS provides wildlife removal and control for homes, rental properties, multifamily properties, offices, retail locations, property management facilities, and other residential and commercial properties within our service area.
The approach depends on where the wildlife activity is occurring, how the property is used, accessibility, and the animal involved.
What happens during a wildlife inspection?
A wildlife inspection focuses on understanding the activity occurring at the property. Depending on the situation and accessibility, GIROSS may examine the affected area, signs of wildlife activity, possible entry locations, exterior vulnerabilities, burrows, nesting evidence, or other conditions related to the problem.
After evaluating the situation, we can explain what was found and recommend the appropriate next step for removal, control, exclusion, or prevention when applicable.
Do you provide wildlife removal near me?
GIROSS provides local wildlife removal services throughout select areas of Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern Virginia, including communities in Montgomery County, Howard County, Frederick County, Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Arlington, and surrounding service areas.
