Squirrel Removal

Signs of Squirrels:

  • Scratching or running noises in the attic

  • Chewed wires or insulation

  • Droppings and nesting material

Our Solution:

  • We identify entry points, use exclusion funnels or humane traps, and install one-way exits. We also repair the damage and prevent re-entry.

Common Entry Points: Roof edges, soffits, vents

Raccoon Removal

Signs of Raccoons:

  • Noises in the attic or walls (especially at night)

  • Tipped trash cans or scattered insulation

  • Entry holes near the roof or soffit

Our Solution:

  • We inspect for raccoon entry points, set humane traps, and safely remove the animal. Then, we seal the entry and repair any damage they’ve caused in the attic or crawlspace.

Common Entry Points: Roof vents, chimneys, attic fans

Skunk Removal

Signs of Skunks:

  • Strong, unpleasant odor around your property

  • Holes dug under porches or sheds

  • Skunk sightings, especially at dusk or night

Our Solution:

  • We trap skunks humanely and relocate them safely. We then secure the area with trenching and barriers to stop future burrowing.

Common Entry Points: Under decks, foundations, crawlspaces

Bird Removal

Signs of Birds:

  • Nesting in chimneys, vents, or ledges

  • Bird droppings on siding or walkways

  • Flapping sounds in vents or walls

Our Solution:

Common Entry Points: Chimney flues, exhaust vents, attic eaves

  • Shed skins or snake sightings inside/outside

  • Rodent activity (which attracts snakes)

Common Entry Points: Gaps in foundations, under doors, drains

Fox Removal

Signs of Foxes:

  • Burrows or dens near sheds or wooded edges

  • Small pet disappearances or livestock loss

  • Distinctive tracks and droppings

Our Solution:
