Marmot Removal Service In Oregon

Common Problems

  • Tunneling and weakening structures
  • Damaging gardens and landscaping

The ecoPest Wildlife Management Solution
We identify marmot activity, apply safe removal methods, and fortify vulnerable areas against future burrowing.

Marmots may look harmless at first, but their tunnelling habits and feeding behaviour can cause real trouble for homeowners and farmers alike. According to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, these large rodents are active during the day and are most likely to appear in gardens, fields, and yards near open grasslands.

If left unchecked, marmots can destroy vegetation, dig up structural foundations, and attract predators. At ecoPest Wildlife Management, we understand the marmot behavior patterns and provide professional marmot control that is safe, effective, and compliant with local regulations.

Our Wildlife Control Process to Remove Marmots

Getting rid of marmots takes more than just setting a trap. Here’s how our step-by-step process works:

  1. Property Inspection

We begin by locating marmot burrows, signs of foraging, and identifying exit points on your land. Our experts will check for damage to vegetation, sheds, fences, and crawl spaces.

  1. Humane Trapping

We use approved live trapping methods, such as toe traps and cage traps, to safely capture marmots without harming them or any non-target animals like pets or local wildlife.

  1. Targeted Baiting

Baits like fruits, vegetables, or natural attractants are selected based on marmot behavior and habitat.

  1. Marmot Removal and Relocation

Captured marmots are removed promptly and either relocated in compliance with state laws or handed off to proper authorities.
