I remove nuisance wildlife such as raccoons, armadillos, rodents, etc. humanly from homes and properties. I have lower prices than the larger companies along with better service. I have 20 years experience working with wildlife. Inspection of your home, roof or property is free of charge.

"I waited many weeks to post this, to make sure I didn't post out of anger. I've used Blake for many yrs. Il've literally paid him thousands. I am posting our last correspondence. Blake didn't inform me that he didn't have his cameras until AFTER I agreed to quote and AFTER he was finished for the day. That concerned me, as he usually has them up for a few days, sometimes a wk, to make sure squirrels are allout. He came back 2 days later and closed the holes. *pictured are his 'fix'. After a few days of concern, I called to ask about the $550 charge without cameras. He stated, "that's what I charge". I said that was ok. If he felt it was fair, I'd respectfully accept it. In less than 3 wks, another hole was made. When I let him know, I was shocked at his response. I own my own business, and wouldn't still be here after 26yrs if I treated clients this way. Anyway. did some research and found how easy (and inexpensive!) To get your own materials and do it yourself! (' help others on how, if you'd like to know). I didn't realize that he had been happily patching rotten wood, to ensure himself continues business. Blake seems very nice and soft spoken, Beware."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, honey bees can sting, but they typically only do it when they feel their hive is threatened. When honey bees are away from their hive, they’re focused on foraging for pollen and nectar, making them unlikely to sting. Only female honey bees, called workers, have stingers, and they will die if they need to use them. Generally, if left undisturbed, honey bees will leave you alone.

One way to keep pests away is with good housekeeping. Keep ants away with a clean kitchen. They’re less likely to wander in looking to score some free food if there isn’t a mess to find. Wipe down counters, don’t leave dirty dishes around, and keep food in air-tight containers. 

Home and yard maintenance can also keep pests away. Seal windows, patch any holes or cracks, and put screens on the vents to prevent bugs, rodents, and other uninvited guests from coming in.

Professional pest control works faster than any DIY method, so it’s the way to go if you want your pest problem gone ASAP. A basic treatment can take place in under six hours, while larger fumigations may take up to a week. You should start noticing a significant reduction in pests within a couple of days, with full results in about a week on average.

Yes, you can get rid of wolves naturally using nonlethal deterrents, like motion-activated lighting or loud music. You can also get rid of wolves with the same methods that apply to keeping other wildlife away—strong and tall fencing, a guard dog, and a clean property free from potential food sources. 

Yes, it is generally safe to return to your house once the pest control professionals have granted permission. Keep in mind that you’ll only need to evacuate your home during extreme pest control treatments, such as whole-home fumigation, while more minor treatments don’t require leaving. When you return home, be sure to follow the pest pro’s instructions carefully, especially those surrounding wait times and safety precautions.
