What is an exclusion technician?

Exclusion Technicians are professionals who specialize in identifying and sealing entry points to prevent unwanted animals, pests, or wildlife from entering homes or businesses. Their work involves inspecting properties, determining how animals are getting in, and applying materials or barriers to block access. They may also remove animals if necessary and provide recommendations to prevent future infestations. Exclusion Technicians play a crucial role in humane pest management by focusing on prevention rather than extermination.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an exclusion technician?

To excel as an Exclusion Technician, you need knowledge of pest behavior, building construction, and safe removal techniques, often supported by a high school diploma or equivalent. Familiarity with hand tools, ladders, sealing materials, and sometimes pest control certification are typically required. Strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and customer service skills set top performers apart. These abilities ensure effective, safe, and customer-friendly solutions to pest entry problems, protecting property and health.

What are some typical challenges exclusion technicians face when working at client sites?

Exclusion Technicians often encounter challenges such as identifying hidden entry points for pests, working in confined or elevated spaces, and dealing with varied building structures. They must also balance effective pest-proofing while minimizing disruption to the client's environment. Team coordination and communication with property owners or managers are key, as Exclusion Technicians frequently explain their findings and repair processes to ensure client understanding and satisfaction.

CertificationsMay require pest management licenses, exclusion-specific trainingTypically requires pest control licenses and certifications

Both roles often require pest management licenses, but their methods and daily tasks differ significantly. Understanding these differences helps clients choose the right professional for prevention versus eradication needs.

DAY-TO-DAY

Our full-time wildlife technicians typically work Monday - Friday, with rotating Saturday shifts.

As a Wildlife Exclusion Technician, you help Central Florida residents reclaim their homes! When someone calls us in a panic because of a raccoon, squirrel, or rat infestation, you're the person who comes to their rescue! Clients feel reassured as you knowledgeably answer their questions and take control of the situation. As a trained professional, you know exactly what to do: you set strategically placed traps to capture and remove the critters. Employing recommended safety precautions, you humanely transport squirrels and raccoons to an appropriate location and release them back into the wild.

Once the animals have been removed, you move on to the exclusion process. Observant and thorough, you inspect the property to identify active and potential entry points. You leave nothing to chance, carefully examining the building by going on the rooftops and crawl spaces. Next, you properly check any weak spots by sealing up the home with sheet metal, concrete and hardware cloth to protect the residence from future infestations. When necessary, you place rodent monitoring stations on the property to keep the exterior population under control. You find great satisfaction in helping our clients resolve their wildlife issues, and their gratitude is immensely rewarding!
