"Jeremy was great. I put in a request near midnight, and he responded right away. He was on time, friendly, and quickly got the chipmunk out of my house. His price was also the lowest of all the quotes I received. I highly recommend him and will absolutely call him again if needed."
"Raymond got here on time and removed a birds nest out of the exhaust vent, mesh wired it up and sealed it up properly. He also sealed up a few more vents. No more aggravating birds are getting in! He's a real friendly guy and an expert at taking care of critter problems. Very reasonable. Worth every dime!"
"In my time of need they explained in details everything they'd be doing, in a way I really understood. And it was quick but thorough! Thank you Wildlife removal specialist, I really needed the help. Call them, you won't be disappointed, I know I wasn't."
"My technicians Bin and Earl were great! They literally came to the house started working immediately,even through in the rain,which they insisted wouldn't slow them down. They agreed lightning would be the only deterrent though ?. They were professional,knowledgeable and courteous. Bin returned for my weekly checkups and was pleased to report to more pests. I would highly recommend this service. Ask for Bin!"
"We hired Atlanta Wildlife Solutions for rodent removal services in October of 2019. Work was done within 3 days of hiring and we have not had any other issues, Chad came out and set traps and Christian sealed our home. The communication was top notch along with the sealing."
"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."
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.
Metal coil-shaped retriever tools (around $50) help remove empty nests and debris from chimneys. Unless you are sure the nest is vacant, we recommend calling in a pro to handle bird’s nest removal from chimneys, vents, roofs, and other hard-to-reach places.
There are a few ways to keep pesky bugs away from your garden. One option you have is to plant flowers so beneficial insects like ladybugs can control pests for you. A similar method is companion planting, which means you’ll grow vegetables that’ll discourage pests, like garlic, onions, and basil. The best pest prevention method will depend on the bugs you have issues with and the plants in your garden.
When it comes to keeping birds from doing their business on your porch rails, you have several DIY options and home remedies you can try:
Tie a fishing line from one end of the deck post to the other. Birds won’t be able to see the line across the railing, so they can’t land on it.
Hang wind chimes close by, which may scare birds away.
Apply a bird gel repellent to the railings, which contains smells that birds generally don’t like. Or, similarly, you can apply citronella or lemon oil around the railings, since birds don’t like strong smells.
Certain strong smells may help repel bats, though this is not a foolproof method and is best used in conjunction with other deterrence strategies. Scents like peppermint oil, eucalyptus, cinnamon, cloves, and mint are often suggested as natural remedies. To create a spray, you can mix two cups of warm water with half a cup of sugar and a few drops of your preferred essential oil. Apply this mixture using a spray bottle to possible entry points and throughout the affected area, such as an attic. While this home remedy is popular, evidence supporting its effectiveness is limited.
