Hooper Wildlife Control
Bird, Bat, Skunk and Raccoon Control for Hooper Homes and Outbuildings
Hooper's farmland and wetlands near Ogden Bay attract a lot of birds, and the insects that come off the marshes draw bats in summer. When they find a vent, eave or barn rafter to nest or roost in, the mess and noise come right along with them. The same fields and ditches are home to skunks, raccoons and pocket gophers that move into yards, sheds and crawl spaces, and squirrels use the tree rows and outbuildings to get into attics.
Mountain West Pest Control is locally owned and operated in nearby Ogden. Our Hooper wildlife control service removes animals, nests and roosts humanely and seals the openings so they don't come back. Every quote is free and same-day.
WILDLIFE WE HANDLE IN HOOPER
Birds
Our most common Hooper wildlife job. Starlings, house sparrows and pigeons nest in dryer vents, attic vents, eaves, barns and outbuildings. Barn swallows also build mud nests under eaves, but they're federally protected, so we time that work around nesting season.
Bats
Bats roost in attics, barns and gaps along the roofline during the warm months, feeding on the insects that come off the wetlands.
Skunks
Skunks live along field edges and ditch banks and den under porches, sheds, hay storage and the crawl spaces of older farmhouses.
Raccoons
Raccoons travel the ditches and wetland edges at night and get into barns, chicken coops, garbage and pet food, then den in garages, outbuildings and attics.
Squirrels
Tree squirrels use windbreaks and tree rows to reach rooftops and chew into soffits and attic vents. Outbuildings full of stored feed give them extra reason to stay.
Gophers
Pocket gophers push up mounds across lawns and pastures. What people call moles in Hooper are almost always either gophers or voles.
WHY HOOPER HOMES SEE SO MUCH WILDLIFE
Wetlands and irrigated fields produce plenty of insects and attract lots of birds and bats. Barns, sheds and older outbuildings have open rafters and gaps that make easy nesting, roosting and denning spots. The fields and ditches that surround Hooper homes give skunks, raccoons, and gophers cover and food right up to the property line.
HOW OUR HOOPER WILDLIFE CONTROL WORKS
- Inspection: We find active nests, roosts, dens and tunnels, along with the openings animals are using.
- Bird exclusion: We remove nuisance nests and install vent covers, screens and barriers.
- Humane bat exclusion: We use one-way devices timed to avoid trapping young bats inside, then seal the entry points.
- Humane removal: We remove skunks, raccoons and squirrels humanely and in line with Utah wildlife regulations.
- Yard treatment: We treat active gopher tunnels and mark their mounds.
- Outbuilding protection: We help close off barns, sheds and coops where possible.
