Humane Removal & Relocation
Written 10-Year Guarantee
Chester County is the prettiest wildlife habitat in southeastern Pennsylvania — and your house is standing in the middle of it. Montgomery Wildlife brings a family carpentry background to a county where that matters: when the entry point is a gap in 250-year-old pointing or hand-hewn cornice trim, the fix has to respect the building, not just plug it.
Humane removal carried out in accordance with Pennsylvania Game Commission regulations
Repairs sympathetic to old stone, old wood, and the way a historic house is supposed to look
Every sealed opening covered by a written 10-year guarantee
Whether it's a farmhouse outside Kennett Square or a five-year-old build in Exton, we solve it permanently the first time.

Chester County's signature building is the stone farmhouse, and stone farmhouses are honest about their age. Pointing opens between fieldstones, summer kitchens and springhouses settle, and the joint where a later wood addition meets original masonry is a bat entrance more often than not. The barns are even more generous — open lofts, louvered cupolas, gaps under slate — which is why so much of our Chester County bat and bird work happens in outbuildings. Horse country adds its own pattern: groundhogs burrowing along pasture fences, run-in sheds, and garden walls, where a collapsed tunnel is a genuine leg-breaking hazard for the animals the fences are protecting.
The newer Chester County tells a different story. The developments that filled in around Exton, Downingtown, and Malvern over the past thirty years were framed fast, and unsealed ridge vents, builder's gaps, and vinyl soffit returns make young houses easier for squirrels to enter than the two-century-old ones. The Brandywine and its creeks, the mushroom-farm edges around Kennett Square, and the wooded ridges near Chester Springs keep the whole county moving with wildlife year-round.
How We Work
Permanent Solutions, Politely Installed
The inspection comes first and costs nothing: the full exterior, the attic, the foundation line, and any outbuildings you want looked at. You get a written, itemized estimate — then humane removal, with live trapping and one-way eviction handled per Pennsylvania Game Commission regulations. The repairs are the part Chester County tends to notice: mortar tinted to the stone, trim profiles matched, screening hidden behind original louvers. Ten years of written guarantee on every point we close.

"They treated our 1790s farmhouse like it was their own — the repair at the cornice is invisible and the squirrels never came back."

Common Questions
Chester County Wildlife FAQ
Groundhogs and bats. Open land plus old structures is the perfect recipe for both — groundhogs along fence lines and under sheds, bats in farmhouse gables and barn lofts. Squirrels and raccoons fill out the rest of the calendar.
That's the point of the carpentry background. Repairs are fabricated to match what's there — stone, slate, old-growth trim — and we'd rather spend an extra hour matching a profile than leave a patch you have to explain to guests.
Yes — barns, run-ins, springhouses, and detached garages are routine for us, and groundhog work around paddocks and pasture fencing is one of our most requested Chester County services.
Every property is different, so we inspect first, free, and put the full scope in a written itemized estimate. No surprises mid-job, and nothing added at the end.
Entirely. Live trapping, one-way eviction for bats, mothers and young kept together, and no poison anywhere — all handled in accordance with Pennsylvania Game Commission regulations.
Most calls get same-day or next-day response, and a bat inside the living space goes to the front of the line any hour — call (267) 647-6674 directly for those.
Case Study: Kennett Square — The Groundhog Under the Garden Wall
A Kennett Square property had a dry-laid stone garden wall that started leaning, and the gardener found the reason: a groundhog had tunneled a den system directly beneath it, with a back entrance under the adjacent potting shed. We trapped two adults at the burrow mouths over four days, collapsed and filled the tunnel runs, and trenched a buried steel barrier along the wall footing and shed perimeter so the next groundhog finds somewhere else to dig. The wall was re-set by the owners' mason on a foundation that's no longer hollow — and the barrier carries our written 10-year guarantee.
