Louisville Wildlife Removal & Exclusion Company

Kentucky protects maternity colonies of bats, so exclusions are legally restricted during the summer birthing period (roughly mid-May through mid-August) when flightless pups are present. In Louisville's older Old Louisville and Butchertown homes, we typically inspect for colonies in spring, then schedule guaranteed exclusion work before or after the maternity window. Sealing too early or too late can trap pups inside walls, so timing is critical.

The mature oak and hardwood canopy around Cherokee Park, the Highlands, and Crescent Hill provides an ideal food source and highway of overhanging limbs onto rooftops. Gray squirrels chew through soffit returns and gable vents to nest in attics, especially during the late-winter and late-summer breeding seasons. We remove them and reinforce the vulnerable roofline entry points common to these early-1900s home designs.

Yes. When the Ohio River and its tributaries like Beargrass Creek rise, groundhogs, skunks, and rats are pushed out of low-lying burrows and riverbank habitat toward higher, drier ground — which often means crawlspaces and foundations in neighborhoods like Portland, the West End, and Shawnee. We see predictable spikes in denning complaints in the weeks following heavy spring rains.

Absolutely. Old Louisville has one of the largest collections of Victorian-era homes in the country, and their ornate soffits, slate roofs, and masonry require careful, non-destructive exclusion methods. We match materials and preserve architectural details while sealing entry points, and all of our exclusion work carries a 10-year guarantee.

We serve the entire Louisville Metro area including all of Jefferson County, plus Oldham County (La Grange, Crestwood, Goshen), Bullitt County (Shepherdsville, Mt. Washington), and the neighboring Southern Indiana communities of New Albany, Jeffersonville, and Clarksville.
