Our Nuisance Wildlife Process
for Removing Foxes
Foxes are naturally curious and highly adaptable, which makes them more likely to venture into urban and suburban areas in search of food or shelter. While they may seem harmless from afar, foxes can become a problem when they dig dens near homes, disturb pets, or scavenge through garbage.
At Nest Pest Control, we take a careful and humane approach to fox removal. Our process begins with a thorough property inspection to locate dens, entry points, and signs of fox activity. From there, we use live trapping, one-way doors, and habitat modification to safely remove the animals without harm.
Once removed, we focus on prevention. Our technicians will recommend and implement exclusion strategies such as fencing, sealing off den sites, and removing attractants like pet food or compost piles. Every step of our process is designed to be effective, ethical, and long-lasting—keeping both you and local wildlife safe.
Whether you’re dealing with fox sightings, animal noises at night, or digging around your yard, Nest Pest Control is here to help restore peace and protect your property.
