Find a licensed wildlife control operator
An independent index of people who appear on official commercial nuisance-wildlife license lists for Ohio and New York. Names are transcribed from those sources. No invented operators. No paid placement. Massachusetts is a verify-only page because MassWildlife’s finder does not publish names in the HTML.
Use the Ohio CNWACO public listings, New York licensed NWCOs, or Massachusetts PAC finder. Need a licensed operator if you want a short hiring checklist — use the official lists and verify the license. This site is not an emergency service.

When to hire, and when exclusion is enough
Occupied attics and chimneys, nursing young, bats, and rabies-vector species are jobs for a licensed operator. DIY products on this site are for sealing after vacancy.
How to hire
Need a licensed operator
Hire from the official state lists and confirm the license is current with the issuing agency. This site is not an emergency service and does not dispatch operators.
How to use the lists
- Ohio, New York, and Massachusetts require a licensed commercial operator for paid wildlife work. Doing that work for hire without the right license is a state-law problem, not a gray area.
- City is the address of record on the source list. Some licensees live in a neighboring state and are licensed to work in Ohio or New York.
- Ohio’s PDF is the operators who asked ODNR to publish their contact information. ODNR says it is not an exhaustive roster of every CNWACO permit. Always verify on the current PDF.
- New York’s open-data file is the currently licensed commercial NWCO list. Municipality licenses are marked. Always verify on data.ny.gov.
- This index does not scrape WildlifeHelp.org, CSIA, or private membership directories.
