"I had a problem with a squirrel in my home. I contacted numerous agency's who were either closed or did not respond with a return phone call. When I came upon HomeAdvisor and input my request for squirrel removal, Doug was prompt in responding the my situation. When he arrived he resolved the problem within a matter of less than 5 minutes. I was overly thrilled with his services and would highly recommend him/his company your pest control removal. Thanks again Wildlife Strategies."

"The service was great, the price was competitive with the two other quotes I received. I am also a business owner and took note of how this companies technicians were professionally dressed and had brand new vehicles and equipment. Clearly this company invests to get jobs done properly.
My tenants worked odd hours and the owner and technicians were very accommodating to their schedules and made it very easy on me during scheduling.

They will be used again in the spring to treat ants at my home and properties."

"I received a phone call from Mike within half a day of reaching out through HomeAdvisor. He quickly scheduled an appointment for early morning the same week to accommodate my timing. He set bait stations and a trap for mice and returned a month later to check for activity. He also provided a referral to another pest control service for bat removal after finding evidence of them in my attic. His service is friendly and efficient."

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Armadillos are most active during cooler hours to avoid extreme temperatures, particularly the daytime heat in the warm climates where they live. This activity pattern helps them reduce the risk of overheating and dehydration. They are generally active from late at night to early morning, often between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m., but can also be seen around dawn and dusk. An exception to this is during mating season (June-July in the northern hemisphere, November-December in the southern hemisphere), when male armadillos may be more active than usual.

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.

There's anecdotal evidence that apple cider vinegar does help to repel mice. But the best way to repel mice is to keep your home scrupulously clean and seal up any obvious entry points. If you already have a mouse infestation, apple cider vinegar won’t get rid of the critters. It’s usually worth the cost of professional pest control to make sure a serious mouse problem is eradicated completely.

If a wild animal enters your yard, prioritize safety for yourself and the animal. Remember to avoid direct contact and always keep a safe distance. Contact local authorities or a wildlife rehabilitation center if the animal is hurt or in distress. Both sources should be able to guide you on how to proceed and send help if needed. Please wait for the animal to leave naturally for non-threatening situations, as many will. To deter future visits, implement measures like securing trash cans, sealing entry points, and removing potential food sources.

While cats are great at rodent control, it is their second nature to use the soft dirt of your garden as a litter box. This can lead to the contamination of your food and the spread of disease in humans.
