"In a word, fantastic! I had been using a different animal control company. When I first noticed the current problems it was after the pandemic caused business practices to change. A call was made to the other company and a message requested I leave a message. The request also stated to not call back and leave another message, the first would be returned. After waiting several days, I gave up and called Animal Management. Someone actually answered and had an appointment for me very quickly. Craig was the technician that was sent. Per my request, he did a thorough inspection, removed the birds, and made the other suggestions. I agreed with all and the repairs were scheduled. Two gentlemen arrived at the scheduled date and time and spent the whole day doing a great job. Craig also stopped by to assist for some of the repairs. I am extremely happy that I called Animal Management, cannot recommend them highly enough."
"The process was very smooth from start to finish. Communication was excellent. The team is obviously very knowledgeable about pest control. I hope that I never need to use a pest control service again, however, if I do, this will be the only place that I call. I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my home, and these good people checked all of my boxes."
"I turned to Nuisance Wildlife Services after two other companies left me hanging with ongoing rodent control issues. Dustin offered to seal my whole home where others would only seal for four feet off the ground! Moreover, their "sealing" was incompetent. Dustin sees the house's vulnerabilities and has the skills and drive to repair them."

"Sam Smith came out to get rid of a raccoon in my attic and did a great job wildlife-proofing my house so nothing else could get back in!! 10/10 recommend"
"Aaron came out late in the evening to ensure that most of the yellow jackets were in the hive. He was extremely professional and very friendly. He took care of our problem and it only took 30 minutes. I would recommend Reliable Pest Control to anybody that has a pest problem. The price was fair and they are extremely knowledgeable regarding all sorts of pests and vermin. Excellent job! "
"We had birds nesting in an exhaust fan duct that was open on the exterior of the house. I called best pest to have them come out, remove the nest and install a new cover which I had already purchased. The technician came out with a ladder and a coat hanger and claimed he couldn't get the nest out because it was too deep into the vent (using a coat hanger.... Not surprised!). He also said it was too difficult and complicated to install the new cover I had purchased, so he ran to the local Menards (which was nice of him) and purchased a cage like cover to fit over the current exhaust to stop birds from getting into the vent. I called a professional to deal with the problem because I didn't have the tools needed to fix it properly. What they did I could have done in 10 minutes for a tenth of the cost. Didn't meet my expectations on any level. The technician was a nice guy, but didn't really fix my problem and I've stressed about it since. "
"Guardian was very fast and reasonably priced. Other comapnies were giving me 2+ week wait times and Guardian was able to get it done in 3 days. However they did leave some mess inside my house where they accessed the attic, and also left the corpse of a dead bird in my yard. at $400 for removal, I would expect them to fully remove the bird."
When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.
The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.

If a wild animal enters your yard, prioritize safety for yourself and the animal. Remember to avoid direct contact and always keep a safe distance. Contact local authorities or a wildlife rehabilitation center if the animal is hurt or in distress. Both sources should be able to guide you on how to proceed and send help if needed. Please wait for the animal to leave naturally for non-threatening situations, as many will. To deter future visits, implement measures like securing trash cans, sealing entry points, and removing potential food sources.
Woodpeckers peck at the break of dawn and take a break whenever the sun is not shining. On sunny days, expect pecking from dawn to dusk. On cloudy days, expect sporadic pecking when the sun peeks through. These birds are most active in the spring; you’ll hear them drumming as soon as the weather turns warm.
Finding a dead bat in your home can be frightening, even during spooky season. The United States Department of Interior states that if you find a dead bat, take these steps:
Photograph the bat safely to help the wildlife agency determine the species
Use disposable gloves to place the bat into a plastic bag, making sure to spray with disinfectant and close the bag securely
Thoroughly clean your hands and any clothing that came into contact with the bat
If you see one dead bat, you might have a large bat infestation that needs to be treated immediately. Call a local pest control company to properly inspect your home for other bats.
