Abstract	:	The growing problem of wildlife damage in urban and suburban areas is discussed. Some tools and techniques useful in more rural areas are not appropriate for use in urban settings, because of potential nontarget hazards, potential complaints about noise, or other reasons. Control methods recommended in suburbia are often less effective, more time consuming, and more costly the methods used in rural or agricultural areas. Solutions to urban and suburban problems with rabbits and jackrabbits, pocket gophers, moles, ground squirrels, tree squirrels, skunks, opossums, raccoons, and bird are discussed.
