"Joe Rangel from Great Lakes Pet Fencing is really good with our energetic labradoodle. Trust was developed quickly. Our dog trained extremely quickly and is able to run freely (without a leash) within the boundary. Our dog's freedom and our freedom is invaluable!"

"Neil was awesome. Through the whole process from the initial call to request a quote, get a quote, and determine a date of installation (which he accommodated an evening installation to work around my work schedule) to the physical installation, Neil was the epitome of 5-star service and he had a top-notch understanding of his system and setup. He's a proud owner of the local branch/franchise of the company, and it shows. He was easy to talk to not only about the fence but about family and life in general. By his representation, I would always go back to him for any support or new fences we may need in the future. And I highly recommend him for your own pet fence. He was great with our dog with training as well and he explained everything clearly and easily for continued training. I'm happy with everything about it!"

Animal Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

Armadillos have very strong smelling capabilities to track down insects efficiently. But this superpower is actually a double-edged sword because their extreme sense of smell also causes them to be more sensitive and deterred by strong odors. To keep them at bay, you can place small amounts of substances like vinegar, ammonia, and mothballs around your property and near armadillo hotspots.

Although you can technically flood an armadillo out of its hole, it’s important to remember that this can be potentially fatal to the animal. Armadillos sleep between 16 and 18 hours a day, and if you perform this technique while they’re deep in sleep, they may not awake soon enough to save themselves.

If you’re having trouble with your traps, first examine them for flaws that would allow a squirrel to escape easily, such as loose doors or hinges. It’s also important to consider the location of your trap: Place it in areas with higher squirrel traffic, and make sure it’s on a sturdy surface so it can’t wobble or tip (squirrels aren’t likely to walk in a trap that isn’t stable). Lastly, try changing out your bait—in-shell peanuts or peanut butter often work best.

Yes, in some cases if your damper is left open, animals can come down your chimney. In these instances, it’s more likely that they have fallen in while looking for a safe spot rather than entered your house intentionally. Leaving your damper closed or installing a chimney cap can prevent animals from coming inside.

There are several ways to make your yard a less attractive habitat for moles. Protect your garden beds by installing a fence or other barrier about 2 to 3 feet deep around your garden.

Moles eat insects, so grub removal is another important way to prevent moles from destroying your yard.

Likewise, remove tree stumps, dead leaves, and other debris that attract insects to your lawn. Some plants will deter moles as well, including daffodils, marigolds, crown imperial, and alliums, like garlic or onions.

Homemade raccoon repellents can be a cost-effective and humane method for keeping raccoons off your property. Raccoons despise the smell of vinegar, so keeping a bowl of it near your home can keep them away. Some wildlife companies advise using cayenne pepper or hot sauce sprinkled near your deck or porch as another homemade option.
