Expert Wildlife Management—Tailored for Rockton

Rockton’s charming downtown, forest preserves, and riverside neighborhoods create a beautiful place to live—and an appealing environment for local wildlife. Homes near the Rock River, Hononegah Forest Preserve, or downtown Rockton often encounter raccoons, bats, squirrels, and other critters looking for warmth and shelter.
That’s where we come in.
At Advanced Wildlife Management, we bring local knowledge and expert care to homes throughout Rockton. Whether you’re in a historic home or new development, we offer humane, professional wildlife removal with lasting results.
A Closer Look: Inspection & Identification
Understanding the problem starts with knowing what you’re dealing with.
Wildlife problems often start with subtle signs: scratching noises in the attic, droppings in the garage, or odors near the walls. Our trained specialists perform a full inspection to assess signs of animal activity, with an understanding of the common wildlife behaviors specific to Rockton’s wooded and riverside settings.
Rockton homes often have hidden access points—from uncapped chimneys to gaps in soffits and fascia. We identify all current and potential entryways and develop a custom plan to safely remove the animals and seal up their paths.

Where Wildlife Breaks In

Ethical Wildlife Removal in Rockton
Safe, legal, and humane methods to protect your home—and the animals we share it with.
Every animal is removed using humane, legal practices. Whether it's flying squirrels in an attic or raccoons nesting in a garage, we use safe techniques like one-way doors and live traps to relocate animals to appropriate habitats.
Restoring Cleanliness & Comfort
Removing what’s left behind to make your home safe and sanitary again.
Once the animals are gone, we restore your space. That means removing nesting debris, droppings, and urine-soaked insulation, then disinfecting and deodorizing. We make sure your home is clean, safe, and comfortable again.
Repairs and Long-Term Protection
Keeping your home secure and wildlife-free for good.
After the cleanup, we focus on restoring your home and preventing future invasions. We repair structural damage like chewed wires, torn soffits, and compromised insulation. Then, we fortify weak areas with long-lasting, weather-resistant materials. Our team seals all known and potential access points, installs vent guards, chimney caps, and wildlife-proof screens, and completes a final inspection to ensure your home is fully protected moving forward.

Our Humane Commitment
We believe in protecting your home without harming wildlife. Advanced Wildlife Management operates with a deep respect for nature, using non-lethal methods and a compassionate approach to animal removal. You can trust us to resolve your issue responsibly.
