"I contacted all pest pros the beginning of April because of a dead smell coming from my attic. I also had flies coming out of there. The inspector Alex went into the attic and removed dead rat from a trap that Terminix left behind. I signed a contract, though I thought was  a little pricey at the time. With all the hard work that these guys did, I now feel that it was money well spent. I just had my last check up yesterday and there were no rats in the traps and am no longer hearing noises in my walls. My house has been nice and cool with the new insulation that was put in. GREAT JOB TO ALL PEST PROS!

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

You’ll want to call a licensed and insured wildlife removal company that offers:

  • Full property inspection—indoor and outdoor

  • Proper animal identification

  • Written management plan with follow-up visits included

  • Humane removal techniques

  • Preventative exclusion measures

If it’s an emergency and you can’t wait, you’ll need to contact an emergency animal control company near you.

Yes, most exterminators or pest control services provide free estimates to potential customers. It’s a good idea to get at least three estimates to compare prices and services unless you have an emergency that can’t wait to gather estimates. When providing the exterminators information for the estimate, be sure to include as much specific information as possible, include the suspected type of pest, how many you’ve seen, and other warning signs.

Groundhogs have a strong aversion to powerful scents, including garlic, ammonia, vinegar, hot peppers like cayenne, and predator urine. Various herbs such as rosemary, lavender, basil, mint, sage, thyme, and oregano can also act as deterrents. You can strategically use these odors around your property by planting these crops near your garden and by the entrances to groundhog burrows. Commercially available repellents offer another option, and for best results, scent-based deterrents should be used alongside other preventive measures.

How long skunks stick around depends on the time of year and whether they have youngsters. Skunks only spend a few days in a den during warm months. However, they’ll put down roots during the other seasons, particularly females with kits. Female skunks may stay in the same place throughout early spring and summer, and all skunks usually stick around during the winter months. No matter the season, skunks prefer safe areas with plenty of access to food. 

Setting up an animal trap in your yard largely depends on where you live and the type of critter you're dealing with. In many states, trapping nuisance animals like squirrels, rats, or raccoons is allowed, sometimes without needing a permit. However, certain wildlife species are protected, and not all states have lenient catch-and-release regulations.

Before placing a trap, check your local laws to avoid fines or other legal issues. Some areas allow DIY trapping, while others may require professional assistance. Most areas require a professional to relocate the animal once trapped. Consulting a pro ensures you handle the situation responsibly, humanely, and within the law.
