"I called Michael's Carpenter Ant & Termite Services after reviewing pest control companies on Angie's List.  I received a prompt phone call back asking how he could help me.  I explained the situation and made an appointment for him to inspect our step.  He came out on time and was very friendly.  He explained what he thought was going on with the step and inspected the area thoroughly inside and out.  He inspected the foundation line of the house inside and out as well as our garage and cupola (noticed bee's nest).  He explained that our location next to the woods made our home more susceptible to Carpenter Ants.  We thought our self treating was controlling the problem as we would stop seeing ants.  Michael explained that even though we were not seeing them anymore, they were still there either because of weather conditions or stages of life.  We decided to go with a year treatment plan.  He came out the next day and sprayed.  Now, a week later, I am finding dead ants around the foundation and inside my home and ALL OVER the front step that flagged the concern.  Many, many more ants than I have seen around the house lately....so he was 100% correct!  They are there even though we thought we had controlled them!!  I am so happy that I called and we went ahead with the treatment plan.  Hopefully those sneaky, pesky Carpenter Ants will finally be under control and not do further damage to our home!

"Had a resident raccoon and the kind gentleman came out and looked up in the alcove attic of my garage and breezeway and under my deck but the animal had gotten out. No fee and he assured me he'd be back if I needed him. I called later in the evening and he was at my home by 9am the next morning. I will definitely use him again."

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

While keeping any critter away permanently isn’t always possible, you can keep mice away from your home by setting traps, fumigating your space, and sealing known entry points. Once you’ve taken these steps, take time to work on prevention measures, such as clearing out all clutter and recyclables and removing all food sources.

Squirrels tend to forage, traveling along roof and fence lines. To trap a squirrel, placing a baited trap on the roof near the point of entry is the best option. If you can see them going in and out or recognize the damage they might be causing to the exterior of your home, you can also try placing traps near those locations.

Many different types of animals like to build nests in attics. The types may vary depending on your home’s condition and location and you can prevent them by sealing off entry points and eliminating food sources. The most common critters that like to build nests in your attic include:

  • Raccoons

  • Bats

  • Squirrels

  • Mice

  • Rats

Pest control and wildlife removal are different services. Pest control specialists typically handle insects and bugs, often using chemicals and poisonous sprays for extermination. Wildlife removal professionals, on the other hand, focus on larger animals. They prioritize humane methods like trapping and relocation, using poison only as a last resort. For insect problems, contact a pest control professional; for issues with other animals, an animal or wildlife removal specialist is the correct choice.

While possums don’t typically carry rabies, they can have lice, fleas, ticks, and mites. According to the University of California’s Pest Management Program, possums can also carry diseases like leptospirosis, tuberculosis, toxoplasmosis, coccidiosis, and fevers. Possums are also the carriers of a parasite that can pass to horses and cats called Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM).
