Why San Marco Homes Attract Wildlife

San Marco grew up on the south bank of the St. Johns River during the 1920s, and many of its Mediterranean Revival, Tudor and bungalow-style homes are now close to 100 years old. Those homes are a big part of the neighborhood’s appeal, and their clay tile roofs, wood soffits, crawlspaces and decorative vents are also where wildlife gets in.

Roof rats and gray squirrels travel the oak canopy onto rooftops and chew into attics. Raccoons move along the riverfront and den in crawlspaces and attics, and bats roost under barrel tile and behind shutters. Along the Southbank, pigeons nest on balconies, ledges and rooftop equipment of condo and office buildings.

Our Southbank office on Riverplace Boulevard is minutes from San Marco Square, and we handle these calls regularly across San Marco, St. Nicholas, Miramar and Lakewood. We remove the animals humanely, seal every entry point, and clean up what they left behind, so you pay to fix the problem once.

Signs You Have an Animal Problem

  • Scratching or scurrying in the attic, walls or under the floor, especially at dusk and dawn
  • Torn or pushed-in crawlspace vents, lattice or foundation screens

  • Droppings in the attic, crawlspace or garage
  • A strong odor under the house or new stains on ceilings
  • Bats leaving from under roof tiles or shutters at dusk

Can I Handle It Myself?

Trapping an animal without sealing its entry points just makes room for the next one. Older homes usually have several openings, from crawlspace vents to rotted soffit to gaps under tile, and missing one means the problem comes back. Florida also regulates how wildlife can be trapped and relocated, and bats can’t be excluded during maternity season (roughly mid-April through mid-August).

A licensed operator knows what’s legal, what’s safe, and where the real entry points are in an older home.

Protecting an Older Home

Animals in an older home do more than make noise. Rats and squirrels chew wiring, which is a real fire risk in homes that still have older electrical. Droppings and urine soak into insulation and subfloors, and raccoons tear up original wood trim and vents.

We match exclusion repairs to your home’s existing materials and finishes wherever we can, so the fix doesn’t take away from the character of the house. Some exterior changes on historic properties can require review by the city, so we’ll talk through the plan with you during your free inspection.

Rated 5 out of 5

“We discovered that we had hundreds of bats living in our attic and called a few different places to remediate the problem. Coastal was the only one that offered an extensive cleaning solution… All the techs were very detailed in explaining what they were doing throughout the process and could not have been more professional. I would highly recommend them.”

San Marco Wildlife Removal FAQs

Which neighborhoods do you serve?

We work throughout San Marco, the Southbank, St. Nicholas, Miramar, Lakewood, Granada and Empire Point, along with the rest of Jacksonville.

Do you handle condos and commercial buildings on the Southbank?

Yes. We handle bird control, rodent problems and wildlife exclusion for condo associations, offices and other commercial properties, in addition to single-family homes.

Will your repairs match my older home?

We match exclusion materials and finishes to your home wherever we can. Some exterior changes on historic properties can require city review, so we’ll talk through the plan with you during the inspection.

How much does wildlife removal cost?

It depends on the animal, how many entry points need to be sealed, your roofline, and whether the attic or crawlspace needs cleanup. The inspection is free, and you get a written quote before any work begins.

Can you remove bats any time of year?

Not always. Florida protects bats during maternity season, roughly mid-April through mid-August, when exclusion isn’t allowed. We can inspect and plan during that window and complete the exclusion as soon as it’s legal.

Do you also offer regular pest control?

Yes. We provide quarterly pest control, mosquito control and termite protection, so wildlife and pests are handled by one company.
