"AAA Wildlife Trapping & Removal is absolutely the BEST place to call for help. The owner Alfredo is so nice, honest, professional, extremely knowledgeable, on time for appointments and shows up when he says he is for follow ups. AAA Wildlife Trapping and Removal by far has the best and fair pricing. Alfredo definetly does not over charge for anything! Matter of fact, I had 2 other companies come out to give me a qoute on a rat problem in my attic. One company wanted to charge me $1049.00 (1 year warranty) and the other $650.00 (6 month warranty). Plus, the other 2 companies tried to upsell me on products. Alfredo’s fee was only $300 for my size/type of home and AAA Wildlife Trapping and Removal comes with a 5 YEAR WARRANTY!!! I asked Alfredo about the other products the other companies were trying to upsell me on and Alfredo told me I didn’t need them and not to waste my money. Very honest guy for sure!!! He also has options of trapping animals. If you don’t want them killed, he has a trapping system that will get rid of them but not kill them. Last night we caught a rat and Alfredo was here first thing in the morning to remove it. He sealed all possible entries on my roof and completely sealed off my A/C chase where they were coming in. The other companies just wanted to stick wire mesh and spray expanding foam. The way Alfredo sealed off the A/C chase, nothing will EVER get up there again. I don’t have to worry about redoing it in months to come. I won’t give away his method...but the guy is very smart in what he does. If you have problems definetly call AAA Wildlife Trapping & Removal...don’t waste your time or money with these other ripoff compaines. I am so glad I researched and found Alfredo...I saved myself $750!!! I live in Cape Coral, FL."

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. 

You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.

Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.

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. 

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.

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.
