"All Pro Pest Control responded immediately and came right out to quote mitigating a termite infestation. Keith inspected our issue and explained his findings thoroughly. He was able to treat it the same day with a human and pet safe product. He was efficient, clean, and thorough. I would recommend Keith and All Pro to anyone."

"My wife and I decided to go with Elevate Home Solutions for our bat removal issue. This was before and after we called Truly Nolan to give us a quote and assessment of the work they will be doing. Taylor and Andrew went above and beyond what we expected, and we are grateful to have connected with them out of all the other companies we could have chosen to do this project. They are truly a one stop shop company. They made this â wildâ and unexpected situation simple to deal with. Not only did they remove the bats, Elevate cleaned and deconned all contaminated areas to include a pressure wash and yard management. I was out on this day, and came home to what felt like a new front patio, which is primarily where our wildlife issue was. We trust them, and weâ ll definitely be sending these guys the Batman signal for our next home solution projects. ThanksTaylor and Andrew, hats off fellas!"

"We had raccoons in our attic for over a month, and Steve was absolutely wonderful to work with! He was very consistent about coming out, checking on the situation, and trying multiple different types of traps until we found what worked. Steve was always professional, knowledgeable, and had great communication throughout the entire process. His persistence really paid off. Once we found the right trap setup, we caught all three within just five days! We truly appreciate how dedicated Steve was to solving our raccoon problem and would highly recommend him to anyone dealing with unwanted wildlife. Thank you, Steve!"

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.

Signs of badgers in a yard or garden include large burrow holes 2 to 9 feet deep and 1 to 2 feet wide in your lawn or garden or under your fence. Badgers may even break through fences in some cases. Partially eaten fruits, vegetables, and animal carcasses can also be a sign. Look for bits of fur, bones, spines, and skulls.

No, poison isn’t the best way to deal with animals in your attic. It’s unlikely to completely eradicate the problem, especially if you don’t take care of access points. Also, poisoned animals may die and decay in the attic, causing noxious odors. 

Some animals may leave the attic before the poison kills them, which could lead to nearby pets or other wildlife eating the animals and becoming poisoned themselves. Ultimately, it’s better to avoid using poison and contact a professional instead.

Professional animal removal costs between $200 and $600 for average homeowners. However, depending on the type and number of critters removed, this cost could range from $85 to $1,400. 

This cost does not include the cost of home damage caused by the animal, which could be as low as $300 for minor drywall repair or as much as $15,000 for crawl space cleaning and restoration. 

Trapping should be a last resort for getting rid of armadillos from your yard. To reduce the chance of damage, try exclusion techniques, habitat modification, and removal of attractants. No repellents are proven effective against armadillos. Instead, consider fencing, sealing burrow holes, and clearing debris and overgrown shrubs that act as hiding spots. You should also remove easy-to-access food sources, such as fallen fruit.
