Wildlife removal regulations

For all WCO's there are rules and regulations that have to be adhered to in order to legally trap and remove certain nuisance wildlife. Some of these concerns include:

Squirrels - In Georgia squirrels cannot be trapped in a manner which causes them to die (i.e., rat snap traps). According to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, the squirrels must be released unharmed in their natural habitat.

Rats - All means are legal.

Flying Squirrels - (same as squirrels)
