"I had a rodent problem in my attic after I had a new roof installed. I researched and interviewed 5 companies and received bids. Although Rowland was not the least expensive, what they said that they needed to do made the most sense in order to solve the problem and prevent reoccurence permanently. They came out to the house and actually went into the attic and saw that there were traces of infestation and took pictures to show me. They then sealed all of the possible openings except one with mesh and cement instead of thin metal and installed a one way door so that the animal could escape but not return. They also set a trap in the attic to insure that no animals were still living in the attic and came back a week later to remove an animal if necessary, seal the final opening, and spray disinfectant and deodorizer to combat any bacteria from feces. The office help have been great and keep you informed every step of the way. I am very satisfied with the company."

"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!"

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Keeping your pool cover clean is a good way to keep smaller animals from running across it or using it as shelter. Small animals may use leaf debris on top of the cover to hide. Cleaning also removes nuts that may fall from a nearby tree that could otherwise be a tempting snack for some animals, like squirrels. 

Squirrels follow a diurnal routine like humans, remaining quiet at night because they sleep. Homeowners concerned about squirrels in their homes are more likely to hear these critters in the early morning when they awaken, eager to start their day and search for sustenance. As the sun sets, squirrels wrap up their daily endeavors and return to their cozy nests for the night's rest.

Squirrels have a strong sense of smell and can be deterred by various scents they dislike. Effective options include peppermint oil, rosemary, garlic, cinnamon, white vinegar, coffee grounds, and predator urine. Squirrels also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based repellents a good choice for protecting specific areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a garlic and vinegar spray and apply it daily. Additionally, placing strong-smelling items like certain soaps or dryer sheets near where squirrels frequent can also be effective.

Fleas are master hiders, so they’re always looking for safe spots. In addition to living directly on your pets, they’re likely to hide in bedding materials, not unlike the infamous bed bugs. They also like carpet and thick grass, for similar reasons. They’re more likely to hang around dirt and debris in general, which is why it’s important to keep the home clean. 

Some animals, such as bats or birds, will be able to get out of chimneys on their own since they can fly. Other animals, however, may have a harder time and will require the help of a professional to escape. Squirrels and raccoons in particular may become stuck inside a chimney, especially if you have a buildup of soot or creosote inside. This can prevent them from being able to climb out, in which case you’ll need to call an animal control expert to help remove them.
