"Outstanding service. I have used other critter removal companies in the past and have not been impressed. This company is different. I appreciated their honesty and hard work. John did a great job. Highly recommend."

"They did a great job removing the animals and they even filled in the holes/nest. My only concern was pricing. I have never had animals removed so I don't have much context, but their pricing (approx $500 to remove 2 groundhogs) was a little pricey."

"I could hear squirrels running around, making noise in the attic space of our home. CritterGuard Solutions was one of four wildlife removal services I contacted for a quote. Garrett came the next day and arrived when he said he would. He inspected the suspected entry point, took pictures and showed them to me, explained what he proposed to do, and emailed me a quote. I was somewhat hesitant because his quote was so much lower then the other quotes I got, but he was knowledgeable and his solution was the same as the others. His warranty was also for a longer period than the others. After I accepted his quote he arrived on time, sealed one opening, and installed an one-way door and trap near the main opening. We waited 5 days to be sure the squirrels were all gone. He then came back, removed the one-way door and trap (it caught a squirrel) and sealed the opening. I found Garrett to be very likeable and easy to work with. I would highly recommend him."

"One and only bird removal service that actually contacted me upon request or leaving a message! Same day service. Steve and son were pleasant, polite, neat, thorough, and walked you thru each step in the process. Photos before, during, and after! Reasonable price for the service. Enjoyable to speak with. 5 Stars!!!"

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Deers have an extraordinarily strong sense of smell, which means they can react strongly to certain scents. Lavender, garlic, mint, cinnamon, clove, and human hair are some of the most offensive scents for deer. You can try mixing some of these pungent oils or scents with a spray mixture and adding them to your garden.

Animals that dig holes in the yard at night include skunks and raccoons. Both animals are nocturnal, meaning they are most active at night and use that time to hunt or forage. Skunks will dig small holes to find insects, while raccoons use their strong front legs to pull up chunks of sod and search for food underneath.

If the snakes in your yard are non-venomous species (like common Rat or Garter snakes), why not consider the live-and-let-live approach? Some benefits of not getting rid of snakes include:

  • They’re great at controlling disease-spreading rodent populations, including rats, mice, voles, and moles.

  • Some non-venomous species (like the common kingsnake) eat venomous species like rattlesnakes and copperheads.

  • Species like the garter snake keep down populations of garden pests like slugs and grasshoppers.

Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting. 

Generally, squirrels are not considered aggressive toward humans. They are more likely to flee than confront people. However, like many animals, they may exhibit aggressive behavior if they feel threatened or cornered. If you approach a squirrel too closely or try to handle it, especially if it's a mother protecting her young, it may resort to defensive tactics such as biting or scratching.
