"I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Nobody likes needing to call pest control, and I waited too long to do it. But Rowland was friendly and professional, not at all judgemental. They educated us in what they were using and how to prevent future issues. We are so happy! Please call them immediately, you won't regret it!"

"Great company. They contacted me the same day. The next morning, they came to perform the inspection, determined the cause, and explained clearly the possible solutions. In the afternoon, they applied the products to control the termite infection. My problem was solved in 24 hours. I highly recommend this company."

"We had birds nestin on two of our patio ceiling fans. The babies fell out of the nest & when I tried to pull the nesting material down it was full of bird mites. Hundreds fell on me & the patio. Owen the owner answered me very quickly and came later that afternoon & removed the nests and sprayed everything thoroughly. He said we would need another treatment in 30 days. I highly recommend Eliminators Pest Control and will definitely call Owen again for my pest control problems!"

"Called Ray when a possum found its way inside my home. He was in the area and offered to come by, take a look and give me options for removal. When he arrived he offered the option of a trap or I could wait to see if the critter worked his way back the way he came in. Not wanting to risk it getting stuck on the way out, I asked it be removed immediately -- Ray didn't hesitate. Quick and easy and the possum was caught and removed without an issue. I will hopefully never have to call him for critter removal ever again - but would do it in a minute if I had to. Excellent service."

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Fencing is one of the most effective ways to keep deer out of your garden, but there are other ways to keep deer away. You could put together a homemade deer repellent mixture using household items that deer hate. Mix hot sauce, garlic powder, liquid dish soap, and water in a spray bottle and spray it onto your plants. It won’t harm your garden or any animals but it will deter deer from chowing down. You can also plant your garden strategically by creating a perimeter of plants that deer don’t like to eat, herbs like oregano, mint, sage, and thyme.

Animal removal specialists specialize in removing critters and wildlife from in and around your home. These include:

  • Bats

  • Birds

  • Groundhogs

  • Moles and voles

  • Opossums

  • Mice and rats

  • Raccoons

  • Skunks

  • Squirrels

The specialist's method to remove these critters will depend on the animal. For example, groundhogs will be live-trapped and relocated, whereas, for birds, the expert will remove and discard the inactive nest and sanitize the area. 

How long skunks stick around depends on the time of year and whether they have youngsters. Skunks only spend a few days in a den during warm months. However, they’ll put down roots during the other seasons, particularly females with kits. Female skunks may stay in the same place throughout early spring and summer, and all skunks usually stick around during the winter months. No matter the season, skunks prefer safe areas with plenty of access to food. 

There are several ways to make your yard a less attractive habitat for moles. Protect your garden beds by installing a fence or other barrier about 2 to 3 feet deep around your garden.

Moles eat insects, so grub removal is another important way to prevent moles from destroying your yard.

Likewise, remove tree stumps, dead leaves, and other debris that attract insects to your lawn. Some plants will deter moles as well, including daffodils, marigolds, crown imperial, and alliums, like garlic or onions.

Some snake repellents are risky to use around people and pets because they use the active ingredient in mothballs, naphthalene. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has classified naphthalene as a carcinogen that can cause damage to the liver, neurological issues, and cataracts. 

The Colorado State University Extension suggests there’s not enough conclusive evidence of the effectiveness of snake repellents to recommend their use.
