Using a humane trap-and-release approach

Here’s how we provide our professional wildlife control service in Calgary:
We will speak with you to understand the animal’s behaviour and determine what species we’re dealing with. Every solution starts with understanding the problem.
Our technicians assess your Calgary property, identifying entry points, nesting areas, and the extent of intrusion.
We use live, species-appropriate traps placed in high-traffic areas to ensure a safe and targeted capture.
We check the traps daily to ensure quick, humane capture. Non-targeted animals are released unharmed and the setup is adjusted accordingly.
Captured wildlife is transported outside Calgary city limits and released into a suitable habitat where they can safely thrive—far away from your home.
At Pest Force Calgary, we do more than remove animals—we respect them and protect your home at the same time.
