Gosport Wildlife Removal for Riverside and Rural Homes
Wildlife removal for Gosport and eastern Owen County
Gosport is a small town on the eastern edge of Owen County, sitting between the White River and State Road 67. It was platted in 1829 as a river town, and today it mixes older homes in town with rural and riverside lots that have sheds, barns and outbuildings. Wildlife can find a way into any of them.
Critter Outlaws is a small, owner-operated wildlife removal business, and Gosport is part of its service area, which runs from Martinsville in the north to Bedford in the south, plus Greencastle as an approved exception. If you’re hearing noises in the attic or finding signs of an animal under the porch, call (812) 821-4462. Regular hours are Monday–Friday, 8 AM–5 PM, and emergency wildlife calls are accepted 24/7.
Before you call: a quick check around your home
A few minutes outside can help describe the problem when you call:
- Roofline and soffits: chewed holes, bent vents, or gaps where an addition meets the original roof.
- Chimney: a missing or damaged cap.
- Foundation and crawlspace vents: loose screens, gaps in older stone or block foundations.
- Porches, steps and sheds: fresh digging or a burrow entrance.
- Inside: droppings, a smell in one room, or scratching at night.
Don’t try to block an opening while an animal may still be inside. Trapping a mother away from her young, or sealing bats in, makes the problem worse.
