Nuisance wildlife, handled humanely
When nuisance wildlife moves into an attic, crawl space or yard, we identify the animal, remove it humanely under our CA Trapper License TP-10631, and seal the entry so the next one can't follow.
Our animal removal and critter removal work covers raccoons, squirrels, skunks, bats, moles, coyotes and snakes across San Mateo County.
What you're probably hearing or seeing
Noise in the attic at dawn or dusk
Don't seal holes yet — animals may be trapped inside.
Torn vents or roof shingles
Keep pets indoors at night.
Digging under decks or sheds
Avoid approaching the animal.
Strong odor under the house
Call us to inspect the crawl space.
Local wildlife removal, based in Half Moon Bay
We're a local, owner-operated team. When you call, you talk to the owner — not a call center — and we handle wildlife across San Mateo County.
Humane removal and exclusion
Wildlife control done right means humane live trapping, handling in line with California regulations, and exclusion to stop the next animal from getting in.
Rodent and wildlife problems overlap
A raccoon hole often becomes a rat highway. We combine rodent control with wildlife exclusion so nothing comes back.
Bats
Bats are protected and need careful handling. We use exclusion so bats leave on their own and can't get back in, then seal the gaps.
Snakes and rattlesnakes
Most snakes are harmless, but rattlesnakes are venomous and live near hillsides and open space in San Mateo County. Never try to handle one yourself — call us.
Coyotes
Coyotes are common near open space in San Mateo County and can be a risk to pets and backyard animals.
How we solve it
1. Inspection
We identify the animal and how it's getting in.
2. Humane removal
We remove the animal using humane, legal methods.
3. Exclusion
We seal the entry so it can't return.
Lifetime rodent-proofing guarantee
Our rodent-proofing is guaranteed for the life of the home, materials and labor included. Read the terms
What customers say on Google
"Xpert Rodent & Wildlife was very quick to respond and was able to come out right away to take care of my raccoon issue. His partner inspected the crawl space, the roof and set traps. I needed a new crawl space cover and he did a great job building a new one for me."
Sharon Fisher
"Xpert Rodent & Wildlife was fantastic. They had himself and his guys out inspecting my house the next day. Fixing all the locations that rodents can enter our home. Very personable and very professional. Great work. If I have to will definitely use again."
Chad M.
"From estimate to conclusion of work Xpert Rodent & Wildlife was reliable and trustworthy. William, the owner, kept his appointment times (offered to come in earlier even!), did a detailed inspection/diagnosis of the problems and took care of them within a timely manner. XRS fees are reasonably affordable and discussed beforehand. Highly recommend!"

Common questions
Do you remove raccoons and skunks humanely?
Yes. Wildlife is live-trapped and handled per California Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations.
Do you also handle rodent problems?
Yes. Rats and mice are our core service, and we combine it with wildlife removal so nothing comes back.
How much does it cost?
We price each job after an on-site inspection and tell you the price before any work starts.
Do you use poison?
No. We never use poison or bait stations.
Is it okay with kids and pets?
We rely on traps placed out of reach, sealing and cleanup — no poison. We'll review trap placement with you.
