"If I could rate Sean more than 5 stars, I certainly would. He called immediately when he received notification and arrived at the house in about 2 hours. He suggested we put a trap by the entrance where I had seen what I thought was a woodchuck. He said to call him as soon as there was an occupant in the trap. He even called the next day to check, but the trap was empty. After about 3 days nothing. On Monday, the 13th, there was an occupant. Not a woodchuck, but a racoon that I thought was a young one. Gave him a call and he arrived in a few hours. Was not a young racoon, but a good-sized adult. It was decided to let it out in the woods behind my home and see if it would leave. I've never seen an animal move so fast. The minute he was released he was out of sight. Sean also helped me to block the entrance to the spot where I had seen the woodchuck. He said to call him if I saw any evidence of a return. So far it hasn't returned. If I ever have another problem like this one, I would certainly call Sean immediately and would recommend him to anyone that would need his service. Great person, knowledgeable, kind and caring and affordable."

"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 questions, answered by experts

Squirrels have a strong sense of smell and can be deterred by various scents they dislike. Effective options include peppermint oil, rosemary, garlic, cinnamon, white vinegar, coffee grounds, and predator urine. Squirrels also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based repellents a good choice for protecting specific areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a garlic and vinegar spray and apply it daily. Additionally, placing strong-smelling items like certain soaps or dryer sheets near where squirrels frequent can also be effective.

In addition to a clean home, fleas dislike oils made from plants that are naturally bug-resistant or poisonous to bugs. That includes myrtle, mint, eucalyptus, and especially cedar oil. Common household remedies like baking soda, garlic and apple vinegar don’t have any effect on fleas. Don’t spray essential oils directly on your own skin or your pets (and their bedding, because it can be a skin irritant. Stay away from tea tree oil. In pure form it can be very toxic to pets. Always ask your vet if you have any questions.

The best way to permanently get rid of skunks is by setting up deterrents around your property to keep skunks out. Get rid of skunks permanently by:

  • Not leaving food or water outside

  • Installing a motion-sensor sprinkler system

  • Installing fencing that’s at least 3 feet high and a foot deep

  • Adding motion-sensor lights in the yard

  • Cleaning up brush, sticks, woodpiles, and leaves on your property so skunks can’t use the materials for a nest

  • Seal up cracks and holes around your property to prevent skunks from building a den

  • Placing fresh lemon peels around the perimeter of your home

Luckily, skunks aren’t challenging to get rid of. You can try to remove them slowly by filling their den entryway loosely with newspaper. Many skunks notice their den is in jeopardy and take off on their own. You can also try making a homemade spray of jalapeno pepper, yellow onion, and cayenne pepper—believe it or not, skunks are sensitive to these smells, so if you spray this around the den or in hard-to-reach places around your property, most skunks will take the hint and leave. 

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.
