"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."

"The pro who came did an inspection of vulnerable places in my home where rats could potentially enter. When he located those sites, he was ready with all the supplies he needed to prevent rodents from getting in. He was well-prepared. The area behind my stove was particularly vulnerable because the usual dry wall had been replaced with this fibrous insulation type of product. Easy for rats to chew through, like eating shredded wheat. He removed that fibrous board and installed a very heavy mesh material and secured it soundly. He took care of all the entry sites equally well. And he showed me each site for me to see how secure and rat-proof the were. He was efficient, never took a break and I am so well- pleased with his work. And results. No Rats since he completed the job."

"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

There’s little scientific evidence to suggest that homemade remedies to ward off wildlife are effective. But, often, when using them alongside other management techniques, it won’t do any harm to try. Suggestions include using urine-soaked kitty litter or sweat-soaked clothing items. Try applying them around your fence perimeters. Always read the instructions carefully for any commercially-bought repellents and opt for EPA-approved products. Multiple applications, especially after rain, are often necessary.

It can be difficult to know what type of animal is in your attic until you see it. But several clues can help you narrow down the suspects:

  • Sounds: Smaller animals like rats and mice make scurrying and tapping/gnawing sounds. Larger animals like raccoons and opossums make louder clambering noises. Also, note when animals are noisy: Squirrels are active during the day, while rats are busiest at night.

  • Droppings: Rats and mice leave small, rice-shaped droppings (the rat’s version is significantly larger). Bigger droppings belong to larger critters like raccoons. As long as you’re not squeamish, an image search can help you identify what you’re seeing in your attic.

When in doubt, take photos of damage or other evidence and show them to an experienced pest control pro.

Our experts prioritize safe, family-friendly treatments, minimizing risks while managing pests effectively.

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

Yes, badgers are aggressive mammals, which is why it’s important to safely remove them from your home or garden area as soon as possible. Keep in mind though, badgers rarely attack pets or people, but their sharp claws and even sharper teeth can make them dangerous if they feel threatened.
