• Strong customer service and communication skills.
• Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record.
• Ability to lift 50 pounds and safely work on ladders, roofs, crawl spaces, attics, and other confined areas.
• Ability to obtain any required Ohio licenses or certifications if not already licensed.

Responsibilities

• Perform wildlife inspections at residential and commercial properties.
• Identify wildlife entry points and recommend exclusion solutions.
• Trap and remove nuisance wildlife.
• Complete exclusion work and repairs.
