"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."

"Patriot Wildlife Removal did an amazing job removing raccoons from my attic. The technician was prompt, professional, and friendly. He quickly and humanely removed the raccoons and sealed entry points to prevent future issues. Excellent service and great attention to detail. Highly recommend! Five stars!"

"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

Small animals, particularly rats and mice, like to burrow inside pool heaters. To keep them out, seal any entry points with caulk or steel wool. Then, place mothballs inside or around your pool heater. As a final measure of protection, you can cover the pool heater in hardware cloth or wood paneling to further block entry points.

Squirrels hate anything that disturbs the peace in their nest. Loud noises, bright lights, and strong smells like cayenne pepper or mothballs will deter them from your attic. Spread these scents, add a strobe light, or use an ultrasonic repeller to keep squirrels from nesting in your attic.

You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.

Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.

Groundhogs are most active during the warmer months, from spring through fall. On a daily basis, they exhibit peak activity in the early morning (dawn) and late afternoon (dusk), which are their primary feeding times. They tend to stay in their cool burrows during the hottest, sunniest parts of the day. Groundhogs hibernate during the winter, typically retreating to their dens from October or November until mid to late February.

Whether dryer sheets can keep squirrels away is a bit of a mystery because the evidence is entirely anecdotal. Many households claim to have success with using dryer sheets for keeping squirrels away by placing them throughout their attics, yards, on a clothesline, and any other area where squirrels like to run through. Squirrels do not like strong scents, so if you try using dryer sheets, the ones with the strongest scent may be the most effective.
