Policies and Rates

One of the first questions that we get asked about is pricing. This is a really tough thing to give over the phone, let alone to provide a general idea on a web page. We can try to give you a rough idea. Similarly to calling any plumber, electrician, or mechanic, you'll find many professionals do not set a price until seeing the job at hand. We offer this information in a broad general context only.

You can expect to pay between $25-$65 an hour plus materials. This is obviously a wide price range, but we offer services for a wide variety of wildlife. Obviously, if you live 5 minutes away and we are just removing a skunk that wants to live under on your porch, it's going to cost at the low end. If it is a hazardous job involving ladders, multiple levels, high levels of contaminants from feces, or extra help is needed than it will be towards the higher end. Every situation is unique and needs to be handled differently. We mention both price extremes as a way to paint an example.

Costs do vary widely by company and the level of business. In rural Maine, many highly qualified individuals handle nuisance wildlife. Many work part time, or possible within their local town or with a specific species of animal only. When considering hiring someone to meet your wildlife removal and repair needs, price alone should not be the deciding factor in resolving your situation. Every situation is incredibly unique and only through on-site evaluations and inspections can a true price be determined. Wildlife Control is highly specialized work conducted by licensed and insured professionals. Our business is built on customer satisfaction with the services we provide, before and after the job.

We do charge a flat $25/hour inspection fee from the time we leave the shop until we get back. You can generally expect inspections to take anywhere from 1-3 hours including drive time. We do try to schedule all inspections with the consideration that if you would like our services then we can begin working immediately. After finishing the inspection we can give you an accurate quote for completing the job and suggest possible options for you.

We prefer to handle all exclusion work as part of the job as well. However, if you are comfortable handling the carpentry, landscaping, and ladder side of the work than that is fine also. We work to help you resolve and fix current problems, and prevent future wildlife conflicts. Your satisfaction is our goal.

Areas We Cover

Maine Wildlife Exclusion Services primarily serves to the communities of Waldo, Penobscot, and Hancock counties. We do provide service statewide, commonly for beaver and bat problems which often involve much more exclusion work than trapping or relocation. The inherent travel costs associated with daily travel to check traps can become costly if you are located hours away from us, and in these situations we often try and help you find a qualified ADC agent in your area. Every situation is different and unique, so give us a call today and we'll begin working with you to help resolve your concerns.
