When large animals such as cougars and bears pose a threat to human safety, enforcement officers from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) are often the first to respond. But for complaints about raccoons, skunks and other smaller animals, the department usually refers the public to Nuisance Wildlife Control Operators (NWCO), trained by the department to efficiently and humanely capture and remove “nuisance” animals.
These professionals are trained and regulated by WDFW to provide assistance for services that the department does not have the staffing or funding to provide itself. Because NWCOs are private businesses, they normally charge a fee for their services.
Below is a list of NWCOs throughout the state:
