The services we provide include Trapping and Removal, Gassing, and Exclusion (Abatement) for Skunks, Raccoons, Opossums, Ground Squirrels, Rats, Mice, Voles, Moles and Pocket Gophers. We prefer and choose not to use poisons as there are risks to using that solution to control a nuisance animal or rodent infestation problem. Namely, the risks to children and the secondary poisoning of pets, livestock, or 'good' animals and reptiles, such as Foxes, Hawks, and Snakes. We strive to be in constant communication with our customers until the job is done. For estimates or questions on our wildlife control services, please contact us at your convenience.

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Whereas a honeybee can only sting you once, a yellow jacket can sting you multiple times because they don’t leave stingers in the skin. In the unfortunate case that you get stung by a yellow jacket, it’s important to react calmly and quickly. Immediately ice the affected area until the swelling subsides. You may also take an antihistamine if necessary. If you experience an allergic reaction to a yellow jacket sting or have been stung several times, seek medical care right away. 

Some bees may return after the nest is removed. These are called "straggler" bees, and it may take them a couple of weeks before they leave. The reason is the nest may have been removed while the bees were away. These bees don't typically survive long once the nest is gone, so you may want to contact a beekeeper to help relocate them elsewhere.

Ensure proper ventilation, address leaks, and conduct regular inspections.

Some species of bees (not to mention hornets) are aggressive and dangerous to have in your walls. If they swarm in anger or defense, they could badly hurt people in your home. Other species of bees are largely harmless and many people live in close proximity to them.

Either way, bees making hives in your walls usually causes damage. It can contribute to moisture problems, and attract other pests. Those problems get even worse if honeycombs build up. So we strongly suggest you find a way to keep bees from taking up permanent residence.

If you’re dealing with a bee colony on your property, you might wonder if they’ll leave naturally over time. The answer depends on their circumstances. Bees often relocate if the hive becomes overcrowded, food is scarce, or they face a threat. With that said, if a hive’s location is safe, warm, and with plentiful food sources, they are unlikely to relocate on their own, and the hive may persist for many generations.
