Nuisance wildlife should never be a welcome sight on your Pittsburgh property. Invasive pests can cause significant damage to your home or business in a small amount of time and pose a health risk to you and your family. While it’s important to solve the issue quickly, attempting wildlife removal on your own may result in legal issues that could be worse than any infestation. Here’s what you need to know about the legal aspects of wildlife removal.
Wildlife removal is a complex process that is often regulated depending on where you live and the invasive species you are dealing with. Some important things to keep in mind regarding wildlife removal include:
While DIY removal is possible, it is not worth the hassle. For one, many DIY wildlife removal methods involve ineffective, inhumane, and unsafe practices that often harm the animal and can expose you to potentially dangerous diseases or animal attack.
Furthermore, there are many legalities to sort through if the wildlife on your property is a legally protected animal. Removal of an endangered species will require the experienced expertise of a team of wildlife removal professionals that have the necessary permits and methods to remove the critter legally. If you remove or harm a protected animal, you can face steep fines, penalties, or even the possibility of jail time, depending on the critter and the severity of your offense.
