"The consultation was excellent! In a timely and very professional manner, Mr. Sweezy and his associate entered my home, introduced themselves and inquired of services needed. Having had squirrels in my attic before, I described the attic noises. They examined the entire attic and determined the sounds were possibly overgrown trees over the roof; no recent squirrel activity seen. Tree service is planned. Mr. Sweezy suggested, wait to see if the attic noises stop after the trees are trimmed; if not, call him at that time. No service fee required. I teared up because I greatly appreciate Mr. Sweezy's honesty. I highly recommend Nuisance Wildlife Control and will call them in the future, if needed. One week prior, another company came to my home and quoted $2,000 to rid attic of squirrels with a $99.00 service fee paid."

"My experience was amazing! The service i I received was more than what I expected. The technician was wonderful. I’m a widow, upon his arrival I told him I thought I saw a snake in my back yard. He immediately addressed that issue by attempting to look for the snake. He showed concerned about my safety in addition to taking care of the job he was hired to do. Will I use Home Advisor again? Yes I will!!"

"The technician was very knowledgeable, friendly and polite.  He treated multiple active carpenter bee holes around the facia and chimneys.  He came back a week later to seal the holes with caulk.  The bees disappeared almost immediately and have remained absent ever since.  A little pricey, but the result was what we hoped for.

"They are excellent and they did a great job.  We had a board that had got loose.  But we had got it fixed.  However, it was not done properly and they got it all fixed right.  They did a lot of work.  They sealed the entire roof line, removed the bats and birds and sealed up holes.  They came quickly and were very professional.  They explained everything.  They followed up and came back for two days to do all the job.  We were very pleased with them.  They came when they said they would."

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

No single deterrent will work 100 percent of the time, so we suggest combining deterrents to ensure your seed has the best possible chance to grow. Using bird netting over your seed, with physical deterrents like mylar tape coupled with hanging bird feeders at the edges of your growing area—and removing any bird’s nests, if possible—will give your seeds the best possible chance for success.

DIY animal removal is rarely a good idea and is not advised for many reasons. First, these types of animals can carry diseases and, therefore, pose a health risk to you, your family, and your pets if mishandled. Second, depending on your city or municipality, it may be illegal to remove or handle wildlife yourself. 

Sealing your home against these animals yourself is also a bad idea. Trapping an animal under your house will cause odor and insect problems when it passes away. 

The best animal repellents for gardens include a variety of different scents. You can use predator urine to keep away deer, raccoons, squirrels, and more. The odor will tell the critters that your yard is a dangerous place. Other scents that repel critters are herbs like lavender, geranium, and mint. You can also use hot pepper, garlic, and strong-smelling soap.

It can be difficult to know what type of animal is in your attic until you see it. But several clues can help you narrow down the suspects:

  • Sounds: Smaller animals like rats and mice make scurrying and tapping/gnawing sounds. Larger animals like raccoons and opossums make louder clambering noises. Also, note when animals are noisy: Squirrels are active during the day, while rats are busiest at night.

  • Droppings: Rats and mice leave small, rice-shaped droppings (the rat’s version is significantly larger). Bigger droppings belong to larger critters like raccoons. As long as you’re not squeamish, an image search can help you identify what you’re seeing in your attic.

When in doubt, take photos of damage or other evidence and show them to an experienced pest control pro.

Metal coil-shaped retriever tools (around $50) help remove empty nests and debris from chimneys. Unless you are sure the nest is vacant, we recommend calling in a pro to handle bird’s nest removal from chimneys, vents, roofs, and other hard-to-reach places.
