This is the government animal control services operating in Arlington County and sponsored by the city of Arlington. This agency typically deals with domestic animal issues involving dogs and cats. This includes things like dangerous dogs, stray cats, pet adoptions, etc. However, this agency will sometimes lend assistance with wildlife concerns. Call 703-931-9241 and ask if they will assist with your wildlife problem. To increase the chance of success, do not lie, but if applicable, state that the problem is a public health matter in Arlington, or that you feel the public safety is at risk, perhaps due to the spread of rabies or other diseases.

This is NOT a government agency. It is privately run, and operates on volunteer donations. This is a wildlife rehabber facility that deals strictly with wild animals. They may be able to help you with your wildlife problem, depending on the type of problem. The level of help might depend on their resources at the time. They will almost surely help in any case of an injured wild animal, or an orphaned baby animal, such as a baby squirrel or bird that fell out of a tree, or a baby opossum, etc. Please treat Arlington Wildlife Rehabilitation kindly and donate if you are able to.

This is the statewide government wildlife agency in Virginia, using your tax dollars to address wildlife issues. Sometimes called the Virginia Fish & Wildlife Agency. Virginia game wardens address many wildlife management matters, from hunting licenses, to poaching, endangered species, and yes, wildlife management. They deal with wild animals outside the range of a pest control company, such as cougars or bears. But they also have resources that may apply to your wildlife problem. To increase the chance of success, state that the problem is a public health matter in Virginia perhaps due to the spread of rabies or other diseases.

Yes, the Arlington police department will sometimes help with wildlife problems! I've seen many cases of the cops chasing down an errant bat in your house or snake in your pool! To increase the chance of success, never lie to the police dispatcher, but if applicable, state that you feel your personal safety is at risk, or the problem is a public safety matter in Arlington, or a public health issue perhaps due to the spread of rabies or other diseases. Success may come down to whether or not a police officer wants to show up to this call, or is available. It's not always consistent.

If you can't manage to get free service, we can help. No free agency is going to provide the level of service we provide. We specialize in all aspects of wildlife control. It's what we do. If you have animals in your attic, for example, you need someone to inspect your home and attic, identify and remove the animals with advanced techniques and equipment, you need repairs to your roof or vents to keep critters out, and repair and cleanup in your attic. The Arlington or Virginia government services aren't going to do that for you. Call us if you want to get:

• Fast Service: Usually Same-Day
• Animals Removed From Your Attic, With Home Repairs and Cleanup
• Complete and Permanent Removal of Rodents From Your Home
• Removal of a Bat Colony, or Prevention of Birds on Buildings
• Humane Treatment of Wildlife and Courteous Customer Service

We are not free, but our prices are reasonable and fair for the work we provide. Check our year 2024 prices for wildlife control work. Call us 24/7 to schedule an appointment: 703-881-3164

Arlington Wildlife Tip:
How to kill rats at home -There are many resources on how to kill rats at home, some of which are found on the Internet. Not all websites have accurate information, and there are just as many bogus advice columns as there are factual ones. If you want reliable information about how to kill rats at home, look for a wildlife removal site. These websites will have helpful tips about how to take care of rodent issues. Not only will a good website instruct you how to handle a job on your own, the webmaster will inform you if you should not make the attempt. There are certain situations that require the use of a professional. Trying to remove a problem animal on your own is not always safe or easy. Wildlife professionals have been trained to handle all kinds of nuisance animals, dead or alive. When it comes to rats, you can handle most home invasion situations on your own. Rats are hardy creatures, and trapping is the most reliable method of control. Any Internet site that is worth its salt will tell you that repairing your home is the first step to killing rats. If you do not stop the animals from entering the building first, you will end up trapping new rats and old rats, unable to tell which is which or when your job is complete.
