Please Note

If you proceed past this screen, you intend to apply for a Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator (NWCO) Permit. This annual permit is issued for the removal of wildlife classified as game animals, furbearers, nusiance species, and bats in the state of Mississippi. This permit serves as a legal means to trap, capture and possess these animals beyond the scope of typical hunting/trapping possession laws.

An updated list of all NWCO permittees is maintained at all MDWFP District Offices. If you are permitted, MDWFP personnel may provide your contact information to customers in need of nuisance wildlife assistance in your area.

If you wish to apply for an NWCO permit please proceed.
