Wildlife Species We Help Control

Our services address a variety of common wildlife species that can cause issues for Thousand Oaks residents.

Coyotes

Coyotes are highly adaptable predators that thrive in urban environments, including Thousand Oaks neighborhoods. They are known for scavenging trash, pet food, and even small pets, which can pose a risk to households. Their presence often increases during droughts as they search for water and food sources closer to human habitation.

Rabbits

Rabbits are notorious for their ability to quickly overpopulate an area and cause significant damage to gardens and flower beds. They feed on various plants, including vegetables, shrubs, and ornamental flowers, leaving behind chewed foliage and exposed roots. Their burrowing habits can also create uneven terrain in yards.

Snakes

Snakes, both venomous and non-venomous, can accidentally enter residential properties in search of shelter or prey. They may take refuge under decks, in woodpiles, or along garden beds, alarming homeowners. Venomous species can pose a safety concern, especially for families with pets or children.

Lizards

Though generally harmless, lizards can become a nuisance when they inhabit yards in large numbers. They are drawn to areas with ample insects and shaded hiding spots, such as under rocks or landscaping features. Their droppings can also stain outdoor furniture and decks.

Gophers

Gophers are burrowing rodents that cause extensive damage to lawns, gardens, and landscaping. Their tunneling weakens the soil structure, creating unsightly mounds and uprooting plants. This can lead to costly repairs for homeowners maintaining healthy, well-manicured yards.

Moles

Moles are insectivorous mammals that dig intricate tunnel systems beneath lawns and gardens. These tunnels disrupt the surface, leaving raised soil ridges and damaging plant roots. Moles are especially problematic for homeowners with gardens or heavily landscaped yards.

Voles

Voles are small rodents resembling mice that are known for tunneling and gnawing on plants. Their activity can damage lawns, trees, and shrubs while creating shallow, visible tunnels. Voles frequently strip bark from trees and shrubs during colder months, potentially killing young or ornamental plants.

Ground Squirrels

Ground squirrels dig complex burrows to live in, which can result in structural damage to gardens, retaining walls, and foundations. Their burrowing can destabilize soil, while their feeding habits target fruits, vegetables, and seeds. They are also carriers of fleas and other parasites that may affect humans or pets.

How Our Services Work

At Ekoterra Pest Control, we utilize advanced, nature-friendly methods to manage wildlife on your property. Our process emphasizes safety, sustainability, and long-term effectiveness.

Non-Toxic Botanical Repellents

We use environmentally safe botanical repellents derived from plant-based ingredients to deter wildlife. These repellents target the animals' specific sensitivities, creating boundaries that encourage them to relocate without causing harm.

Fertigation Systems

Our fertigation method delivers plant-safe, non-toxic repellents through irrigation systems. This dual-purpose approach fertilizes your landscape while keeping unwanted wildlife from settling on your property. It’s a low-impact solution that protects your yard while maintaining its health and aesthetic appeal.

Habitat Modification and Exclusion

Effective wildlife management starts with making your property less appealing to animals. Our team assists with habitat modification, such as clearing potential shelter spots, sealing entry points, and installing barriers like fencing or chimney caps. These steps reduce the chances of animals returning.

Comprehensive Inspection and Tailored Plans

We begin with an in-depth assessment of your property to determine the type of wildlife present and how they’re gaining access. From there, we develop a customized plan that addresses the root cause of the conflict while respecting the area’s ecological balance.

The Benefits of Choosing Wildlife Removal

Dealing with wildlife intruders requires a compassionate and responsible approach. No-kill wildlife removal offers several advantages over traditional methods.
