Wildlife in Your Yard? Humane Removal & Relocation Tactics

Encountering wildlife in your yard can be a charming experience, yet it may also present challenges—especially when animals encroach upon living spaces or pose risks to human health and well-being. At Maverick Pest Management LLC, we understand the importance of maintaining a harmonious balance between respecting Colorado’s native wildlife and ensuring the security and serenity of your home. Our wildlife removal and relocation services emphasize humane and ethical practices, aligning with our commitment to sustainable pest management. This blog post explores the nuances of humane wildlife removal, offering practical solutions for homeowners in Grand Junction and surrounding areas.

Understanding the Wildlife in Your Yard

Colorado’s diverse landscape and seasonal shifts are home to a wide array of wildlife species. While it’s a privilege to share this environment with creatures like raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and birds, unexpected encounters can lead to problems—especially when animals settle too close to homes. These species, though vital to the ecosystem, can cause structural damage, spread disease, or disrupt daily life if left unaddressed.


Signs You Have Wildlife Visitors

Before implementing any wildlife management strategy, it’s important to identify whether animals are present on your property. Common signs include:

  • Unusual noises in attics or walls
  • Droppings in storage spaces or outdoor areas
  • Nesting materials in quiet corners
  • Overturned trash bins
  • Tracks or burrows around the yard


Early identification allows for timely action and helps prevent more serious issues down the line.


The Importance of Humane Wildlife Removal

At Maverick Pest Management, we take a compassionate and eco-conscious approach to wildlife control. Humane removal methods reduce stress to the animals, protect local biodiversity, and align with Colorado’s conservation standards. Rather than using harmful tactics, we focus on non-lethal techniques to relocate wildlife to suitable habitats—minimizing disruption to both the animal and your property.


Our Humane Wildlife Removal Process

1. Comprehensive Assessment
Our trained professionals conduct a detailed property inspection to identify the type and extent of the wildlife issue. This assessment helps us create a removal plan tailored to your situation.

2. Live Trapping
We use specially designed live traps that gently capture animals without causing harm. These traps feature pressure-sensitive releases and are ideal for raccoons, skunks, and similar species.

3. Relocation Approach
Captured animals are transported to designated locations that meet their natural needs and are far from residential areas—reducing the chances of return.

4. Preventative Measures
We don’t just remove wildlife—we help prevent future intrusions. Our team identifies entry points, recommends exclusion techniques, and offers tips to make your property less appealing to wildlife.
