Wildlife Removal in Melbourne, FL
Rats · Raccoons · Squirrels · Bats — Humane Removal & Full Exclusion
On Point Wildlife Removal is based in Melbourne — our office is at 4250 Dow Road, Suite #308, not a call center in another state. Melbourne's 1960s and 1970s housing stock, aging soffits and attic vents, and mature oak canopy make roof rats and squirrels the calls we run most here. We remove the animal, identify how it reached the structure, seal the entry points with chew-proof material, and warranty the exclusion work.

Why Melbourne Homes Get Wildlife Problems
Melbourne is the city we know best — it's where our office is, and it's where we run more jobs than anywhere else in Brevard. The pattern here is driven by the age of the housing stock.
A large share of Melbourne's neighborhoods went up during the 1960s and 1970s, when the space program brought thousands of families to the Space Coast. Those homes are now sixty years old, and the components wildlife exploits have aged with them: soffit panels that have separated from the fascia, attic and gable vents with corroded or missing screening, roof returns that have opened at the seams, and utility penetrations sealed with caulk that gave up decades ago. Above them sits the oak canopy those neighborhoods are known for, with limbs resting on rooflines. Roof rats and squirrels take the tree, walk the roof edge, and find a sixty-year-old gap.
The older core — Eau Gallie and the downtown and Crane Creek area — adds early-century frame construction with its own vulnerabilities, plus proximity to the creek and the Indian River Lagoon, which brings raccoon traffic through the yards. North along the Wickham Road corridor and out toward Lake Washington, newer construction changes the picture again: the gaps are smaller and better hidden, usually at decorative roof returns, intersecting rooflines, and pool-cage connections rather than failed soffits. Three different eras of building in one city is why we inspect Melbourne homes by age, not by checklist.

Melbourne Wildlife Removal FAQs
Do you serve all of Melbourne?
Yes. Our office is in Melbourne at 4250 Dow Road, Suite #308, and we serve the entire city — Eau Gallie, the downtown and Crane Creek area, the Wickham Road corridor, the Lake Washington area, and the riverfront neighborhoods along US-1.
Are you actually located in Melbourne?
Yes. On Point Wildlife Removal operates from a real office at 4250 Dow Road, Suite #308, Melbourne, FL 32934 — not a virtual address or a call center routing to another company. Melbourne is our home market and has been for years. If you'd like to verify our FWC wildlife operator license (LW262514) or our BBB accreditation before scheduling, we'll gladly point you to both.
Why do Melbourne homes get rats and squirrels so often?
Much of Melbourne's housing stock dates to the 1960s and 1970s space-program boom, and those homes now have sixty-year-old soffits, fascia, and attic vents under a mature oak canopy. Aging components plus tree limbs touching the roof is the combination roof rats and squirrels exploit most — and it's why our Melbourne inspections start at the roof edge.
How does pricing work?
Every home is different, so we quote after a free onsite inspection rather than over the phone. You receive an exact written price before any work begins. Here's how our pricing works.

Things to Do in Melbourne
Melbourne is known for the Eau Gallie Arts District (EGAD), the shops and restaurants along historic Downtown Melbourne on New Haven Avenue, the Crane Creek Promenade where manatees gather in cooler months, Wickham Park's wooded trails and campground, and Front Street Park at the Melbourne Causeway. The same oak canopy and lagoon corridors that make these places worth visiting also bring rats, squirrels, raccoons, and bats up against Melbourne rooflines.
